A group of Republican senators on March 26 visited the Rio Grande Valley—the busiest corridor for illegal crossings—and toured a holding facility, releasing graphic images of children packed into what Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) called “cages.”

Cruz, who along with 18 of his Senate colleagues took part in a congressional delegation that toured the border area, shared a video from a facility in Donna, Texas. It showed children who had made their way into the United States illegally, packed inside a holding facility.
