This was my third visit to Burlington during the second Trump Administration, and my second unannounced visit. I returned today to see whether the problems I\u2019ve seen have been addressed, and whether conditions for detainees have improved at all as ICE arrests have continued in high numbers.\n\n\u201cI was delayed by over 30 minutes today before my tour inside the facility began. During that time period, my team and I noticed multiple vans leave the property. No explanation was given to me regarding this delay and why it was necessary.\n\n\u201cDuring my tour I was reminded of something I\u2019ve known since I first came here in 2019: This is no place for human habitation.\n\n\u201cEnforcing our immigration laws still requires a semblance of due process, including the ability to speak to a lawyer and with family. We must do more to hold ICE accountable, and I will continue to push them to address the poor conditions inside the field office in Burlington.\n\n\u201cI want to thank the activists that I spoke with following my visit. Your continued support for the individuals being detained inside this facility does not go unnoticed.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-08-21T05:30:57Z", "2026-08-21T05:32:22Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://moulton.house.gov/news/press-releases/moulton-conducts-unannounced-visit-burlington-ice-facility-shares-observations"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8967798203229904, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
