Rep. Veronica Escobar

She is concerned about the border issues including the "Migrant Protection Protocol."

Will those seeking asylum will be provided legal counsel in Mexico. Whitaker cannot make sure the legal counsel will take place in Mexico and it is why the policy is so lousy.

Passport investigations.

Immigrant advocate watch list at the DOJ. Her questions indicate the DOJ is creating lists of people and organizations regarding the southern border. That is not legal UNLESS each individual and/or organization is under investigation for breaking the law.

It sounds to me as though everything Rep. Escobar is asking questions about is a creation of vigilante procedures within the DOJ. The more and more there are concerns by this committee the more and more it sounds as though the DOJ is creating their own laws and not following the legislation it should apply equitably to all Americans.
