Democratic state Sen Oletha Faust-Goudeau says inspection of the facility could help put people’s minds at ease. She says its part of the duties as an elected official to see what’s going on and answer questions they’ve been getting from constituents

ICE told them elected officials would need to formally request access through Homeland Security’s Office of Legislative Affairs.

Protests have stayed near the building since Sunday.

The building has been rented by ICE since 2013 and includes office space where undocumented immigrants are processed for detention and deportation.
