What a wonderful kindhearted gesture on the part of Congresswoman Jackson Lee! May God bless her for her compassion and hospitality to the many children whom I'm sure brought a smile to their faces, the kids who are complete innocents.this is what you pay these people for? and what they aren't telling you is most of the people coming in are ADULTS
this woman is on HOMELAND security

Texas Dem hands out lollipops to detained immigrant children

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) said Thursday that she brought lollipops to immigrant children she was able to visit while in Texas this week.
I always like to take things when I visit people who are detained for reasons that are not of a criminal nature, whether it is to visit with those in Darfur, or to be able to engage in Afghanistan, or to be able to talk to children wherever they are, she said at a House Judiciary Committee field hearing in Texas. Homeless children.

These are lollipops, she said as she held up a plastic bag. I took lollipops along with my colleagues into those detention centers where children were. I wasnt armed, I wasnt fearful for my life
Republicans have continued to argue that border crisis is a national security threat to the nation. But Jackson Lee rejected that, and said that while the U.S. needs to aggressively go after human traffickers, it needs to avoid treating detained children as criminals.
