.AOC and RashidaTlaib broke down and cried while testifying about conditions at migrant detention camps
Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib both cried openly during impassioned speeches recalling their visits to detention camps along the southern border of the United States Friday morning.
Ocasio-Cortez, who voluntarily swore-in so her testimony would be under oath, told Chairman Elijah Cummings that she met with a group of women while visiting the Clint migrant facility in Southwest Texas.
Michigan Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib also visited the camps and had a similarly emotional reaction, at one point having to pause because of her tears.
