ICE officials repeatedly denied his fathers requests to find alternative care for Kebin. and the child continues to suffer lasting trauma as a result ot his detainment. So egregious was this detention that the American Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit on Kebins behalf. ICEs apathetic response to incidents such as these demonstrates their lack of concern for respecting the people in our communities as thiey carry out their duties. As Congress reauthorizes Homeland Security. we must strike a careful balance between keeping America safe and respecting the human and civil rights of our local immigrant families. Protecting our borders cannot come at the expense of peoples dignity.
