📍Portugal Day Parade in @cityofNewarkNJ 🇵🇹 🇵🇹 Such a beautiful day celebrating the culture and contributions of our Portuguese community. It was also an honor to be with Newark firefighter Augie Acabou's familiy as he was honored three years after he lost his life in the line of duty. 🙏

"We believe it is time to confront whether Delaney Hall, as it exists today, can ever fulfill its original rehabilitative purpose." The Delaney family is demanding it be closed & the name retired if it continues to contradict the very values their aunt spent her life fighting for. We agree.

Delaney Hall Is Named After Their Family. They Want It to Close.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govJun 17(source)

Thank you to Committee on Homeland Security Democrats for coming to Newark to host an important conversation exposing what's happening inside Delaney Hall. Our fight for the soul of our nation continues.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govJun 17(source)

Republicans care more about giving Trump taxpayer money for a ballroom than they do about lowering your healthcare costs, making housing affordable, or improving the lives of the people they have the privilege to represent.

Trump said no taxpayer money would be spent on the ballroom. A contractor’s invoices show otherwise.

An internal cost estimate in March by the project’s contractor ran $200 million more than Trump has said publicly and counters his claims that no taxpayer money will be spent.

Families are struggling to locate loved ones, attorneys are having difficulty maintaining communication with clients, & advocates we're in touch with are receiving reports of sudden & disruptive transfers. I’m here with Homeland Dems in Newark for a hearing about what’s happening at Delaney now:

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govJun 17(source)

The GEO Group asked ICE - currently run by a former GEO exec - to remove federal standards that require them to follow laws around the treatment of detainees— including shielding them from legal liability from labor violations. Yet another reason Delaney should be closed & ICE should be abolished.

ICE removed detainee protections after private outreach from top contractor

In new federal standards released Monday, the agency appeared to make changes that could benefit Geo Group’s legal defense.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govJun 17(source)

Unsurprising that Stephen Miller - the architect of Trump's cruel, anti-immigrant agenda - tried to suspend habeas corpus. Due process is one of our country’s bedrock principles. This is a severe violation of the Constitution, but not a surprising one coming from Trump and Miller.

Frustrated by Courts, Trump Weighed Suspending a Constitutional Right

The Administration needs to stop deporting people especially to countries where they later admit it is functionally impossible to retrieve them. If you can't get them back, do not send them there. Read our full letter to Secretary Mullin and Senior Official Venturella below.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govJun 17(source)

We’ve been fighting to close this facility since Day One, and this national spotlight keeps the pressure exactly where it belongs. Looking forward to continuing this conversation with Homeland Dems later today.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govJun 17(source)

What’s happening inside Delaney Hall isn’t new, but brave individuals speaking out are ensuring it can no longer be ignored.

What’s really happening inside ICE’s Delaney Hall? Democrats to hold hearing in N.J. on the conditions.

House Democrats on the Homeland Security Committee will meet in Newark to examine conditions at the GEO Group-run facility.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govJun 16(source)

Thank you to everyone who came to our inaugural Men's Health Conference! As a founding member of the Men's Health Caucus, we're committed to encouraging men & boys to take proactive steps to protect their health - through prevention, early detection, & seeking support when it’s needed.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govJun 16(source)

I also signed on to Rep. Fletcher’s discharge petition last week to force a House vote to protect access to birth control. As a member of the Repro Caucus, I will continue to fight until reproductive freedom is a reality for all.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govJun 16(source)

Great meeting with Planned Parenthood NJ to discuss how we're working in Congress to protect reproductive freedoms.

📍8th Annual Hispanic American Commerce Association Gala 🤝 Since 2015, HACA NJ has done incredible work empowering our Hispanic small business community.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govJun 15(source)

No child should ever be held in a detention facility, and Dilley Detention Center must be shut down immediately. I unequivocally support Rep. Castro’s effort and was proud to join my colleagues in signing on. We must end family detention and safely reunite these families with their communities.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govJun 15(source)

Today marks 14 years since the creation of #DACA, providing hope and opportunities for countless Dreamers. As the future of this vital program hangs in the balance, we must use today to recommit ourselves to protecting Dreamers.
