Presidential Hopeful Booker Vows to End 'Moral Vandalism' of Trump
Immigration Policy

Reuters

   Democratic presidential candidate Cory Booker would "virtually
   eliminate immigration detention" if elected, his campaign said on
   Tuesday, including ending the use of for-profit detention facilities
   and minimizing the time unaccompanied children spend in custody.

   Booker, 50, is among some two dozen Democrats seeking to take on
   Republican U.S. President Donald Trump in next year's election.

   Trump has made clamping down on illegal immigration the centerpiece of
   his domestic policy agenda. He has railed against Central American
   migrants crossing into the United States from Mexico -- many of whom
   are seeking refuge under U.S. asylum laws -- and has sought to build a
   wall along vast portions of the U.S. southern border.
