Trump’s Firing of Noem Signals Need for New Vision on Immigration s Department of Homeland Security faces funding shutdown and loses Kristi Noem, Congress should push for a new path forward on immigration.

Sharing my new piece for ACLU calling on lawmakers to pivot from Noem's firing to an affirmative vision for what immigration should look like - www.aclu.org/news/immigra...

It was never about Kristi Noem. It has always been about Stephen Miller - who remains behind the curtain.

ICE is Rapidly Expanding Dangerous 287(g) Agreements with Local Police The ACLU’s research details the Trump administration’s dangerous expansion of the 287(g) program, making law enforcement and state agencies act as ICE agents.

At least 77.2 million people — 32% of the country — now live in a county with a local law enforcement agency that has enlisted in the 287(g) program.

Our new report, Deputized for Disaster, examines how these dangerous collaborations between local police and ICE endanger our communities.

Starting in 8 minutes- voices from Minnesota testifying before Democratic members of Congress, live in Minneapolis

500+ organizations have signed on to our letter calling on Congress to refuse more funding for ICE & CBP and demand real accountability.

Congress must leverage its budget negotiations to make clear that the cruelty and lawlessness we have seen is unacceptable, and it must end now.

From tonight’s rally and press conference in DC, calling on Congress to say no to more ICE funding

Bloody Week Triggers National Revolt Against ICE Funding They are zip-tying children and dragging people from cars. Now, a coalition representing millions of Americans is telling Congress: Enough is enough. Read the letter that could shut down DHS.

NEWS: Bloody Week Triggers National Revolt Against ICE Funding migrantinsider.com/p/bloody-wee...

As the letter notes: "By design, these actions
terrorize and wreak havoc. They tear at the seams of our families, our communities, and our safety. They
poison our democracy and our way of life. This is not the America we deserve, nor the one our laws or
Constitution allow."

Last night, more than 400 civil rights groups wrote Congress demanding they rein in ICE and Border Patrol -- using the power of the purse that Article I gives them. Congress helped create this mess by injecting $170 billion into deportations last summer www.aclu.org/documents/co...

The Minneapolis pastor had observed "ICE agents circling a young woman who appeared to be Hispanic" and insisted they take him instead of harassing her. An agent then “came, got in my face, pointed a gun at me, and said, ‘Are you afraid now?’” trib.al/k06XIZQ

Minneapolis school closures follow chaotic scenes involving border agents outside Roosevelt High Customs and Border Patrol agents were involved in an apparent operation in the hours after Renee Good was shot dead by an ICE officer.

Roosevelt High Principal Christian Ledesma said: "I am actively watching my own children process this trauma alongside their classmates. I saw the terror in young faces as armed agents showed up on the school lawn." bringmethenews.com/minnesota-ne...

Trump is making thousands of rule-abiding immigrants undocumented Inside the largest delegalization campaign in modern US history.

As Trump continues his quest for Venezuela's oil, remember that the president stripped the legal status away from 300,000 Venezuelans in the US last October, launching the largest delegalization campaign in modern US history.

A white older man in a suit with military lapel pins and a cap smiles and holds up a sign that reads: "Veterans say: No troops on our streets. ACLU." He stands before stone steps.

A group of people stand in the Capitol rotunda, smiling. Many are wearing suits and some are wearing hats that say "No troops on our streets."

Four people stand smiling, posing in a hallway of the Capitol.

Veterans from every corner of the country came to DC this week to send one unified message to Congress: no troops on our streets.

Service members signed up to defend the Constitution, not to police their neighbors.

Trump administration might deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda | CNN Politics Until Friday, it wasn't clear whether officials would let Abrego Garcia's criminal trial conclude before they initiated any removal proceedings.

After making him suffer in an El Salvador torture prison, the Trump administration will stop at nothing to deport Kilmar Ábrego García. They're trying to take him from his family and home to a country he has zero connection to, a punishment for fighting for his rights.

This is unjust and cruel.

Kash Patel fantasy of what the FBI deployment into DC looks like

ACLU-D.C. Statement on Trump’s Deployment of National Guard and Federalization of D.C. Police - ACLU of DC Without D.C. Statehood, D.C. remains vulnerable to this kind of dangerous political exploitation.

“The president foreshadowed that if these heavy-handed tactics take root here, they will be rolled out to other majority-Black and Brown cities, like Chicago, Oakland, and Baltimore, across the country. That should alarm everyone, not just Washingtonians”

Members of Congress were turned away at an ICE detention center in Brooklyn today while exercising their right to conduct oversight of the facility.

ICE has no power to turn them away without reason.

Hundreds of alleged human rights abuses in immigrant detention, report finds Sen. Jon Ossoff's office found "510 credible reports" of abuse against immigration detainees, according to a report first obtained by NBC News.

Forcing a pregnant woman to sleep on the floor, denying a child with a brain tumor treatment — these are just some of the damning allegations about ICE detention made in a new report from Senator Ossoff.

This report adds to what we've long known: ICE detention is dangerous and puts lives at risk.
