Sen. Merkley on Rachel talking about FEMA money being used by ICE to build detentions centers.

Just as hurricane season is upon us, FEMA money is being used for family detention centers.
10,000,000 shifted to ICE.

Merkley is on appropriations committee and is all over this. So much happening daily that the family detention centers have been on the back burner, but Merkley is a bulldog on this.
