Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) said Thursday on MSNBC he opposed the Obama-Holder immigration policy, calling it a "violation of our values." Booker also said there were "awful pictures" of children in lockup facilities under Obama.



"I had a lot of problems with Obama policies on immigration and family detention then," Booker told MSNBC host Katy Tur. "[I] reached out to the administration, wrote letters directly to the president. Wrote letters to [former Attorney General] Eric Holder that a lot of the things we were doing even then to me were a violation of our values and our ideals -- detaining families. We saw those awful pictures of those days of children in lockup facilities that didn't reflect who we are."
