Reintroduction: I'm Heather from Ohio still in Ohio, but I get around. I used to be a lunch lady, now I'm a union organizer. I will fight or fight for someone I don't know, depending on the context. I love hiking, cats, and picket lines.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.
