ON WEDNESDAY, Sens. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, and Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., sent a letter to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement asking “what steps ICE has taken to document and justify the use of segregation.”
The letter was spurred by “recent allegations of the misuse of solitary confinement” in ICE detainment centers, the senators wrote, citing an investigation by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, The Intercept, NBC News, and other reporting partners.
