I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

They have to take different approaches.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The head of the police officers’ union ripped the findings, calling them “inexplicable” and an “injustice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These Police Officers responded to a citizen’s call for help concerning an armed suspect in their neighborhood,” union President Barry Donelan wrote in a statement. “The officers tried to defuse the situation but the armed suspect engaged our officers putting their lives and the lives of our residents in danger. The Police Commission ignored these facts and a multitude of investigations to reach a predetermined and unjust outcome.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland police have been under federal court oversight since 2003, ordered after the “Oakland Riders” scandal in which a rogue band of officers beat and planted drugs on West Oakland residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Ali Tadayon of the Bay Area News Group contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was produced as part of the California Reporting Project, a collaboration of 40 newsrooms across the state to obtain and report on police misconduct and serious use of force records unsealed in 2019.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

The Department of Homeland Security's Office of the Inspector General has repeatedly criticized the company for cutting corners on its investigations, conducting improper interviews, and producing \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2018-06/OIG-18-67-Jun18.pdf\">inaccurate reports\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one instance, the government watchdog said \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/Mga/2018/oig-18-86-sep18.pdf\">ICE failed to take seriously the problem of braided bed sheets\u003c/a> hanging in detainee cells. It said similar braided sheets had been used as a noose in one suicide and in several other attempts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For many critics, Nakamoto's failures cited in the government reports help explain why unsanitary, harsh conditions at the detention centers persist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/07/02/738179391/dhs-inspector-general-finds-dangerous-overcrowding-in-border-patrol-facilities\">Public scrutiny of detention \u003c/a>facilities continues to increase. Meanwhile, the population of those detained at ICE's facilities last month reached an \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/detention-management\">all-time high of 54,000\u003c/a>. At the same time, there are persistent questions from the inspector general about whether ICE is properly overseeing the contractors that run a majority of the agency's facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/06/30/736940431/under-siege-and-largely-secret-businesses-that-serve-immigration-detention\">ICE relies heavily on private industry\u003c/a> in nearly every aspect of its operation. Outside contractors GEO Group and CoreCivic operate most of ICE's adult detention centers. For the last eight years, Nakamoto has been charged with conducting annual inspections of ICE detention centers, including those run by GEO and CoreCivic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's really not an exaggeration to say that there is basically no meaningful accountability or oversight for the companies who are involved,\" says Heidi Altman, director of policy at the National Immigrant Justice Center, an immigrant rights group. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The DHS inspector general not only \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2018-06/OIG-18-67-Jun18.pdf\">criticized Nakamoto's work\u003c/a>, it also faulted ICE for not properly overseeing Nakamoto. \"ICE does not adequately hold detention facility contractors accountable for not meeting performance standards,\" the inspector general wrote in its \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2019-02/OIG-19-18-Jan19.pdf\">latest report in January\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The result, critics say, is that detainees are subject to everything from solitary confinement to negligent medical care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kidd, the 24-year-old former Adelanto detainee, says he filed grievances about his experiences. (Kidd married in December; prior to that his last name was Sorto.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kidd's Honduran mother brought him to the U.S. when he was 9. He was supposed to be protected from deportation under DACA, or the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, but ICE agents arrested him outside his apartment because of a DUI charge that was later expunged from his record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kidd says the treatment at Adelanto was inhumane. One day, during an evacuation, he says a guard screamed obscenities, calling him and his fellow detainees names.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I mean, that's when I kind of lost it,\" Kidd says. \"I just said, 'You cannot call me that, you cannot treat us like animals, because we're not.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For this, Kidd says he was briefly taken to a solitary confinement room called \"Bravo.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In Bravo, there was nobody watching in there,\" Kidd says. \"You'd see people come out of there with bruises. I saw them come out of there with bruises.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kidd filed grievances under ICE procedures with GEO Group, which ran the facility. He says GEO promised to interview his fellow detainees about the mistreatment, but never did. He says GEO dismissed his complaint. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='news_11736531,news_11728992' label='Coverage of Immigration Detention From KQED']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE did not respond to requests seeking comment about Kidd's claims. GEO referred questions regarding the case to ICE.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kidd's attorney, Sabrina Damast, says such treatment and conditions should have alarmed inspectors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Nakamoto inspectors reported no problems at Adelanto in 2017 and \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/doclib/facilityInspections/adelantoEastCa_CL_10_11_2018.pdf\">2018\u003c/a>. For the last eight years, the company has held the contract to inspect conditions at more than 100 ICE facilities, including Adelanto. (Nakamoto inspections from previous years have not been made public.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last time ICE's own Office of Detention Oversight reviewed Adelanto was \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/doclib/foia/odo-compliance-inspections/2014AdelantoJuly.pdf\">in 2014\u003c/a>. That year, ICE's internal review found the facility already fell short in six areas, including how it addressed sexual assault, its handling of detainee grievances and its food service. (Earlier this year, NPR sued the City of Adelanto seeking access to documents regarding conditions at that facility.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE declined an interview. But its spokeswoman Danielle Bennett says the agency \u003cem>has \u003c/em>improved since the inspector general's reports. In an emailed statement, Bennett said senior ICE officials now accompany Nakamoto investigators during their reviews. ICE, she notes, has multiple layers of oversight, including local staff stationed in each facility. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='immigration-detention' label='Related Coverage']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bennett says the agency is also holding contractors accountable. Between December 2018 and March 2019, she says, financial penalties against the contractors totaled $500,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But one former senior ICE official told NPR the changes Bennett points out are minor. The bigger problem is ICE has no incentive to acknowledge problems. One of ICE's \u003ca href=\"https://www.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/publications/19_0318_MGMT_CBJ-Annual-Performance-Review-DHS-Overview_0.pdf\">performance goals\u003c/a> is for all of its detention centers to pass inspection — and the former official, who requested anonymity to protect future employment prospects, says Nakamoto is well aware of the pressures to meet that target.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nakamoto is a private firm based outside Washington, D.C. Its Japanese American owner, Jennifer Nakamoto, frequently credits her family's experience in World War II internment camps with shaping her company's mission. The company's inspections contract with ICE started in 2011. According to USAspending, the federal government's contracting database, the potential value of Nakamoto's contract was $116 million last fiscal year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Claudia Valenzuela is an attorney with the American Immigration Council, an immigrant advocacy group. She's filed lawsuits seeking information about ICE and its contractors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think there should be more public scrutiny of Nakamoto,\" Valenzuela says. \"How did it obtain the contract? How does this company continue to hold that contract?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Nakamoto says it stands by its performance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an email, Nakamoto Vice President Mark Saunders said, \"we have made it abundantly clear that we are in no way political, and we have no agenda other than to do our work.\" He declined an interview, saying the company has already addressed negative allegations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last fall, Sen. Elizabeth Warren and other Democrats asked Nakamoto \u003ca href=\"https://www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/2018-11-16%20Letter%20to%20Nakamoto%20Group%20re%20ICE%20Detention%20Facility%20Inspections.pdf\">to respond to problems\u003c/a> raised in the inspector general's reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Attachment%203a%20-%20Response%20Letter%20from%20Nakamoto%20Group.pdf\">In her response\u003c/a>, Jennifer Nakamoto quoted from her own company's report, calling the watchdog investigators inexperienced and their findings an \"embarrassment\" to their office. She disputes many of the facts in the reports. She wrote about her mother's birth in an internment camp, saying she and her family have battled prejudice all their lives. \"Without question,\" she wrote, \"the detained immigrant population as a whole has a better life because of what Nakamoto does.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That response has not mollified critics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brian Cohen, Warren's oversight and investigations director, says neither Nakamoto nor ICE has shown interest in making changes. He says ICE has also not responded to follow up inquiries sent \u003ca href=\"https://www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/2019-04-15%20Letter%20to%20ICE%20re%20Private%20Immigration%20Contractors%20CoreCivic%20GEO%20Group%20and%20Nakamoto%20Group.pdf\">in April\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/2019.06.20%20Letter%20to%20ICE%20regarding%20the%20use%20of%20solitary%20confinement%20at%20immigration%20detention%20facilities.pdf\">June\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What we concluded from all this mess is that still, nobody's taken responsibility,\" Cohen says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nakamoto's contract with ICE is set to expire in September.

The Department of Homeland Security's Office of the Inspector General has repeatedly criticized the company for cutting corners on its investigations, conducting improper interviews, and producing \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2018-06/OIG-18-67-Jun18.pdf\">inaccurate reports\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one instance, the government watchdog said \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/Mga/2018/oig-18-86-sep18.pdf\">ICE failed to take seriously the problem of braided bed sheets\u003c/a> hanging in detainee cells. It said similar braided sheets had been used as a noose in one suicide and in several other attempts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For many critics, Nakamoto's failures cited in the government reports help explain why unsanitary, harsh conditions at the detention centers persist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/07/02/738179391/dhs-inspector-general-finds-dangerous-overcrowding-in-border-patrol-facilities\">Public scrutiny of detention \u003c/a>facilities continues to increase. Meanwhile, the population of those detained at ICE's facilities last month reached an \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/detention-management\">all-time high of 54,000\u003c/a>. At the same time, there are persistent questions from the inspector general about whether ICE is properly overseeing the contractors that run a majority of the agency's facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/06/30/736940431/under-siege-and-largely-secret-businesses-that-serve-immigration-detention\">ICE relies heavily on private industry\u003c/a> in nearly every aspect of its operation. Outside contractors GEO Group and CoreCivic operate most of ICE's adult detention centers. For the last eight years, Nakamoto has been charged with conducting annual inspections of ICE detention centers, including those run by GEO and CoreCivic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's really not an exaggeration to say that there is basically no meaningful accountability or oversight for the companies who are involved,\" says Heidi Altman, director of policy at the National Immigrant Justice Center, an immigrant rights group. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The DHS inspector general not only \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2018-06/OIG-18-67-Jun18.pdf\">criticized Nakamoto's work\u003c/a>, it also faulted ICE for not properly overseeing Nakamoto. \"ICE does not adequately hold detention facility contractors accountable for not meeting performance standards,\" the inspector general wrote in its \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2019-02/OIG-19-18-Jan19.pdf\">latest report in January\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The result, critics say, is that detainees are subject to everything from solitary confinement to negligent medical care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

A second vote in mid-September would finalize the ban, which would take effect immediately.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This makes Oakland the third city in the nation to do so after \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11746658/san-francisco-may-ban-police-city-use-of-facial-recognition-technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Francisco\u003c/a> and Somerville, Massachusetts. Berkeley is considering a ban as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Oakland ban is similar to San Francisco’s, in part because activists like \u003ca href=\"https://secure-justice.org/team/brian-hofer/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Brian Hofer\u003c/a>, executive director of the nonprofit Secure Justice, helped craft both measures. He was in attendance at the City Council meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/b_haddy/status/1151344536804679681\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Activists in other cities have talked to Hofer about doing something similar and in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I hope we can build a national movement against dangerous face surveillance. We don’t need it,” Hofer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facial recognition software uses machine learning algorithms to track human faces in digital footage and match them to names. But if the databases those software systems pull from are inaccurate or distorted by historic policing patterns, people of color can become the victim of false positives. Researchers argue that commercially available products for law enforcement aren’t able to correct for these systemic human biases, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11742529/report-warns-a-i-algorithms-not-quite-ready-for-prime-time-in-criminal-justice\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">especially in criminal justice\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland City Council President \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandca.gov/officials/rebecca-kaplan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rebecca Kaplan\u003c/a> cited such concerns in a report written for the council. “Face recognition technology runs the risk of making Oakland residents less safe as the misidentification of individuals could lead to the misuse of force, false incarceration, and minority-based persecution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='news_11746658' label='Related Coverage']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Law enforcement agencies have argued against outright bans, arguing that artificial intelligence has the capacity to improve with time and oversight, but they appear to be losing the political battle with a growing number of cities. The San Francisco ban, for instance, singled out facial recognition in a broader ordinance that required city departments to establish use policies and obtain board approval for all other kinds of surveillance technology they want to purchase or are using at present.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among those testifying before the Oakland vote was \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclu.org/bio/matt-cagle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matt Cagle\u003c/a>, an attorney with the Northern California chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You cannot leave your face at home,” Cagle said. “We do not want a world in which police are making decisions based on inaccurate information, misidentifying people and potentially using force based on flawed and inaccurate technology.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Matt Cagle, attorney with the Northern California chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union.']‘You cannot leave your face at home. We do not want a world in which police are making decisions based on inaccurate information, misidentifying people and potentially using force based on flawed and inaccurate technology.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The big software companies marketing facial recognition software are split on its use. In April, Microsoft \u003ca href=\"https://www.reuters.com/article/us-microsoft-ai/microsoft-turned-down-facial-recognition-sales-on-human-rights-concerns-idUSKCN1RS2FV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">refused to sell its technology\u003c/a> to a California law enforcement agency over human rights concerns, and Microsoft President Brad Smith called for regulation to prevent “a commercial race to the bottom.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amazon, however, continues to sell its Rekognition software to law enforcement agencies. In a \u003ca href=\"https://aws.amazon.com/rekognition/the-facts-on-facial-recognition-with-artificial-intelligence/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">statement\u003c/a>, the company argued, “Technology like Amazon Rekognition should only be used to narrow the field of potential matches. The responses from Amazon Rekognition allow officials to quickly get a set of potential faces for further human analysis. Given the seriousness of public safety use cases, human judgment is necessary to augment facial recognition, and facial recognition software should not be used autonomously.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless of the municipal bans, and a statewide moratorium on facial recognition for police body cams under consideration now in Sacramento, federal agencies like the FBI can and do use the software nationwide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facial recognition has been the subject of two House Oversight and Reform Committee hearings, in which concern over the technology appeared to be bipartisan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those hearings have yet to lead to a change in federal law, but they did reveal the \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2019/07/07/fbi-ice-find-state-drivers-license-photos-are-gold-mine-facial-recognition-searches/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FBI has amassed a database\u003c/a> of more than 640 million photographs for its facial recognition program, including driver’s license photos from 21 states, not including California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Supervisor\u003ca href=\"https://sfbos.org/supervisor-peskin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Aaron Peskin\u003c/a> took that revelation as confirmation he made the right choice in voting for a ban. In an opinion piece published in \u003ca href=\"https://www.newsweek.com/why-us-must-follow-our-lead-san-francisco-risk-becoming-surveillance-state-opinion-1449379\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Newsweek\u003c/a>, he wrote, “Even if 100 percent accurate, mass surveillance by facial recognition — the likes of which authoritarian governments like \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/14/technology/china-surveillance-artificial-intelligence-racial-profiling.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">China are already using\u003c/a> — exposes Americans to an Orwellian dystopia.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Among them was Bay Area Rep. Jackie Speier, D-Hillsborough, who documented the visit on \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/RepSpeier?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter\u003c/a>. One of her photos shows a minor behind caged fencing holding a toddler in a onesie. Another image captures a group of young men behind glass with their hands clasped together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speier spoke about the trip with KQED’s Mina Kim on Monday. Here is an excerpt of their conversation and photos from Speier's Twitter feed:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Mina Kim\u003c/strong>: That image of the young men behind glass at a holding station in McAllen — what were they trying to communicate with you?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jackie Speier\u003c/strong>: Well, one of the images is of them with their hands in prayer asking for relief. I mean, these are men who have been apprehended, have been there as much as 60 days in very small, cramped cells that normally house, I'd say, five to 10 people. And now there were 40 men. They were taking turns lying on the concrete floor to rest. But they had been there for 40 days without a shower and without a toothbrush to brush their teeth. And I must say that I found it so subhuman, and as I looked at them I realized that if we had dogs kenneled in those cells, the American Humane Society would shut it down instantly because it is so repugnant of everything we believe in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/RepSpeier/status/1150767820558479360\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/RepSpeier/status/1150769502612787201\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kim\u003c/strong>: Vice President Mike Pence also went to McAllen, Texas, and visited a Border Patrol station there. He told reporters he couldn't be more proud of the agents at the facility and that every American should be proud and that he wasn't surprised by what he was seeing, that it was tough stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Speier\u003c/strong>: Well, it is tough stuff. But I can't imagine any American looking at the photos that I've posted thinking that they're proud of what we are doing to these people. It is reprehensible. Meanwhile, we're spending $24 billion a year on these services now for immigration enforcement. It is 34% more than all the money we're spending on services like the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Agency, the Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agency, the Secret Service and the U.S. Marshals Service. So most of these people could be sent with ankle bracelets to their family members somewhere in the United States waiting for their asylum hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/RepSpeier/status/1150122304497733637\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/RepSpeier/status/1150127768413331467\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/RepSpeier/status/1150807279920451584\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kim\u003c/strong>: Is that how we fix this?

We have to then expedite the process by which their asylum hearings are being held. There's an 800,000 case backlog right now [and] we don't have sufficient immigration judges.
