Family held at ICE detention center begs Katie Britt for help: Our child ‘wants to die’

A Venezuelan family of three, including a father, pregnant mother and a 7-year-old daughter, say they have been held in an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility for more a month after an attempt to self-deport.

Now, the family is seeking assistance from U.S. Sen. Katie Britt, R-Ala, to help them get back to Venezuela as the family says the conditions at Dilley Detention Center weigh on the mother, Edgarianny Gervis, and the child.
