Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said a search by the Biden administration for a contractor to run a detention facility for migrants at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, was "utterly shameful" in a tweet Wednesday, as focus intensifies on large numbers of Haitian migrants on the southern border.
The tweet from Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., was in reaction to an NBC News story that highlighted a search by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for a contractor to take charge of a migrant detention facility at the U.S. naval base. The posting said at "least 10% of the augmented personnel must be fluent in Spanish and Haitian Creole."
