Congresswoman Salinas denied entry to Tacoma ICE center despite advance notice, seeing only part of facility through glass.
Oregon Congresswoman Andrea Salinas was denied entry to the Tacoma ICE detention center despite providing seven days’ advance notice, though she later regretted making the request.
While Congress members have the legal right to visit without prior notice, Salinas followed ICE’s informal policy.
She was only allowed to view one women’s dormitory through glass, seeing about 50 women sleeping in bunks with limited privacy, and was barred from a second dormitory holding around 75 people.
She expressed frustration over the restricted access, stating her intent to monitor detention conditions.
The incident underscores ongoing concerns about transparency in ICE facilities.
