Texas lawmakers have raised urgent concerns about alleged torture, killing, and inhumane treatment at Fort Bliss detention facilities. The lawmakers' statements come amid growing scrutiny of ICE detention conditions and follow reports of severe overcrowding and inadequate medical care at the military base.

Fort Bliss, a major military installation in Texas, has been used to house migrant detainees under federal contracts. Recent whistleblower accounts and detainee testimonies have described dangerous living conditions, including extreme temperatures, insufficient food and water, and denial of medical treatment. These conditions have reportedly led to multiple deaths and serious health complications among detainees.

The lawmakers are calling for immediate federal investigation and oversight of detention practices at Fort Bliss and similar facilities across the state. They emphasize that human rights violations cannot continue unchecked and demand accountability for those responsible for the alleged abuses.
