In an emotional testimony to the House Oversight Committee on Friday, July 12, 2019 Democratic congresswomen Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ayanna Pressley and Rashida Tlaib described conditions at an immigrant detention centre, decrying alleged mistreatment happening “in front of the American flag”. During Ocasio-Cortez’s testimony a congressional staffer fainted. The testimony came as Vice President Mike Pence was due to travel to Texas on Friday to tour a holding facility and participate in a roundtable with border patrol and members of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
