Reps. Scholten, Stevens visit Michigan facility after ICE detainee's death

"We went through the intake process of what it would be like to be an individual who was being brought in to the ICE detention facility," Stevens said.

While Stevens says she also got to talk with those behind bars, including a woman who was arrested in Macomb County and is currently pregnant.

"She was so shaken and so upset and so fearful missing her young child and of course worried about her pregnancy," said Stevens.

"Why we're using taxpayer dollars in this way? It's an extraordinary expense, and I think the public is also outraged, as am I," said Stevens.

"This is not who we are, this is not what we want in terms of achieving broader safety and security goals, and we can do better if we implement the safety security measures, reform, and the accountability," said Stevens.
