Kevin Mullin will continue to provide oversight of CBP-run immigration detention facilities at SFO because of concerns about detention conditions, health and safety, and detainees' fear and anxiety.

“Congressional oversight is essential during President Trump’s inhumane immigration campaign, and I have serious concerns for the health and safety of the human beings who are under the custody of the United States government,” said Rep. Mullin. “I was shocked to learn green card holders are among those being detained by CBP at SFO, and I question whether their due process rights are being violated. These prison-like conditions are causing unnecessary trauma to people who would have, in the past, been quickly paroled. Now, instead, airports are being used to detain people for days on end in windowless rooms, without their belongings or the ability to make a phone call to loved ones or legal counsel. I will continue to provide oversight because of the nature of these conditions and the fear and anxiety they are operating in.”

Mullin explicitly committed to continue providing oversight of CBP detention conditions at SFO after visiting the facility and raising concerns about treatment of detained green card holders and other immigrants.
