NAPLES, FLa. — Protesters chanted today "close the camps" here in Southwest Florida and across the country.

This is a video of protesters in front of congressman Francis Rooney's office in Naples.

This is all part of the "close the camps" protest.

Activists are protesting what they say are inhumane conditions at migrant detention centers.

It comes a day after lawmakers toured Texas border facilities they say were unacceptable.

Protesters want Congress to refuse to fund the centers moving forward.
