Texas lawmakers criticize ICE for detaining two teen mariachi musicians
AI Summary
Texas lawmakers are criticizing ICE for detaining two teenage brothers, Antonio and Caleb Gámez-Cuéllar, who are mariachi musicians. The brothers, along with their parents and younger brother, were detained late last month in McAllen, Texas. The brothers had previously been honored by Congress after their high school mariachi ensemble won a state competition and were invited to Washington D.C. by their congresswoman, Monica De La Cruz. De La Cruz and Representative Joaquin Castro are both advocating for the family's release, emphasizing that the family was following legal processes for asylum. Antonio, now 18, is being held in an adult facility, while the rest of the family is in a family detention center.
