Children’s Entertainer Ms. Rachel Advocates to Close Dilley Immigration Center
Ms. Rachel highlights harsh conditions and advocates to close the Dilley center where child detainees dropped from 500 to 50 since January, according to The New York Times.
- Last week, Ms. Rachel , children's entertainer, announced she is working with lawyers and activists to close Dilley and return families to communities.
- Amid reports from parents and lawyers that children are losing weight and finding worms in meals, parents and immigration lawyers described children at Dilley standing in line for hours for medicine.

- About 50 children remain at Dilley this week, down from about 500 in January, The New York Times reported Friday, while the Department of Homeland Security disputed reports as 'mainstream media lies'.
- Speaking to NBC News, Accurso said, 'I'm kind of in shock right now about the level of cruelty,' as her prominence has helped draw attention to Dilley .
