FACT CHECK: Kamala Harris Falsely Claims Migrant Teens ‘Incarcerated … Like Criminals’
 
Joel B. Pollak31 Jul 2019
 
CLAIM: Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) said at the second Democratic debate that “children” at the border are being “incarcerated as though they’ve committed crimes.”

VERDICT: False — minors are being sheltered until they can be released to the custody of relatives or guardians.

Harris referred to her visit to Homestead, Florida, after the first Democratic debate, where several presidential candidates joined protesters outside the Homestead Temporary Shelter for Unaccompanied Children.
