End child and family detention and set detention standards

Rick Larsen supports legislation to end the detention of children and families and bar the Department of Homeland Security from using private, for-profit immigration detention facilities. He also supports requiring in-person medical exams, safe drinking water, adequate meals, sanitary private restrooms, hygiene products, and unlimited communication with legal counsel for people held in immigration detention.

Context: These are supported legislative proposals; the passage does not state that they have been enacted.

In their own words
