STILL TRYING TO SHUT THEM DOWN:  In both New Mexico and California, efforts to shut down immigration detention facilities are on-going.  Honestly, I’ve toured three of these facilities in my capacity as a civil rights commissioner. They weren’t half bad.  One of them was really quite nice—so nice my progressive colleagues were a bit stunned.  It was amusing to watch the looks on their faces as the guide was showing us around.  They were so sure they were going to be shown hellholes.
