In Austin, groups join opposition to more Hutto-like facilities
"Groups instrumental in bringing attention to conditions at the T. Don Hutto immigrant detention center urged Congress on Wednesday to oppose legislation to build another such facility for families and children.
Joined by about 20 supporters outside the J.J. Pickle Federal Building, protesters said the Secure America through Verification and Enforcement Act disregards previous congressional recommendations that family detention be used only as a last resort. The bill, H.R. 4088, is in committee."
