Our hearts break for the family of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. Thinking of: Those living in fear of never seeing their children or parent again. Kids who have lost parents. Moms + Dads who are separated from their families bc of cruel immigration policies. You are more than your immigration status.

In our case Mullin v. Al Otro Lado, SCOTUS ruled that the Trump Admin could turn away asylum seekers at the border. Our Water Drop Program Coordinator @broloelcordero.bsky.social breaks down the devastating impact this decision will have on those seeking safety. 👇 fox5sandiego.com/news/local-n...

This decision will keep vulnerable people in danger while encouraging unauthorized migration. Just awful.

In light of today's Supreme Court Ruling, a lil reminder about the constitution (from our trip to Tijuana with @alotrolado-org.bsky.social )

🚨Breaking: Today, SCOTUS delivered a devastating blow to asylum rights. In our case, Mullin v. Al Otro Lado, the Court ruled that the gov can block people from seeking asylum at official border crossings—turning people away w/out the chance to seek the protection they have a legal right to request.

🚨 We just filed a FOIA lawsuit against ICE. Why? Because we found a secret attorney watchlist hidden on an ICE website—packed with Latino, Asian, and African names… including one of our own. The government is targeting immigration lawyers. Again. We’re demanding answers. Now.

Immigration detention does not just deprive people of their freedom. It can also deprive them of access to critical medical care. We've seen this firsthand. One client with a serious heart condition was repeatedly denied medication while detained. ICE detention is deadly.

Over 100,000 children have been separated from their parents during Trump’s immigration crackdown. Most are U.S. citizens. Through our reunification work at Al Otro Lado, we’ve seen this trauma firsthand. “Family values” apparently stop at immigrant families. www.nytimes.com/2026...

Al Otro Lado’s Water Drop Program is running low on supplies. Temps in the Imperial Valley are soaring, + migrants crossing the desert risk death from heat + dehydration.

Deaths in ICE detention are already at record levels this year. When people are trapped in overcrowded, unsanitary conditions and denied medical care, death becomes part of the system. We’ll keep fighting to free as many people as possible from detention.

Children are ending up in foster care because their parents are being detained. That is not incidental. It is the outcome of these policies. States are now scrambling to respond.

A sitting president threatening that “a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again” is a threat of genocide. We join with more than 200 organizations and experts to say not in our name.

🚨 The SPLC and @alotrolado-org.bsky.social filed a motion to intervene in a lawsuit between the U.S. and the sheriff of #OrleansParish to prevent the sheriff from being forced to surrender individuals in her custody to ICE. Read our press release: https://bit.ly/4sDOXNv

This week, the Supreme Court heard Noem v. @alotrolado-org.bsky.social, a case with major implications for #asylum. Our CEO @uzraz.bsky.social gathered with faith leaders and immigrant rights advocates at the Court, declaring, “no turning back” on the right to seek safety.

Yesterday, the fight for asylum rights reached the highest court in the land. The Supreme Court heard our case, Noem v. Al Otro Lado — a case that could decide whether people fleeing violence find safety or face closed doors at our border.

All immigrants, regardless of status, are entitled to due process while their deportation cases are pending. As a part of that due process, ICE detainees are considered for release if they’re not “dangers to the community” or “flight risks”. bit.ly/4uehAm9

Haitian Bridge Alliance applauds @pressley.house.gov for filing a discharge petition to force a vote to EXTEND TPS for more than 300,000 Haitians. 155 Members of Congress, including Minority Leader @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social have already signed on. We need 63 more signatures to move this forward.

#ICYMI 📣: U.S. District Judge Cobb rules that DHS cannot block Congress from showing up unannounced at ICE detention facilities. For the third time, the court sides with lawmakers. The one-week notice policy? Shut down. Humane treatment does not need advance notice. bit.ly/4bmbWHg

Hidden cameras. Remote border roads. Every license plate tracked. In a new investigation by @calmatters.org, @broloelcordero.bsky.social, our Water Drop Program Coordinator, describes discovering dozens of concealed license plate readers while leaving lifesaving water for migrants in the desert.

You can do this. Make a comment. Say you’re opposed. They just want to punish immigrants; and, punish their citizen family members, too. We are talking about whole families being evicted. Or, what? a family is deciding that the undocumented family member will leave? What if they’re the breadwinner?

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is proposing a rule that would ban mixed-status families from federal subsidized housing and require housing authorities to report tenants not eligible for rental aid to the federal government. bit.ly/4s7Hzd6

BREAKING Former ICE agent: On my first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.

Thank you to @myconstitution.bsky.social for submitting an amicus brief in our SCOTUS case, Noem v. AOL. The fact is asylum saves lives and we're grateful for the support in upholding the human right to safety.

DHS is scouting warehouses to expand the detention of migrants, but communities are pushing back! Public pressure is driving property owners to withdraw from negotiations. Proposed sites are collapsing under the weight of people's resistance. We will not let ICE win! ✊

Families are being locked in detention centers for indefinite periods of time, including infants & children. Just last year, ICE booked 3,800 children after Trump took office. Of those, 1,000 of them were held longer than 20 days, in direct violation of a court-ordered limit.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

Listen to our Litigation Director, Cassandra Lopez, on @kpbssandiego.bsky.social's podcast as she breaks down some of the most significant changes the Trump admin has made to immigration policy + why the insistence that immigrants “do it the right way” is a cruel myth. www.kpbs.org/podcasts/por...

Grateful to work alongside @supportkind.org and so many other incredible orgs in supporting these courageous families! It's been 8 years after Trump 1.0 forcibly separated these parents from their children and they're still finding ways to cause them harm. Enough!

#ICYMI: 📣the FY2026 DHS Funding bill failed to pass in the Senate, with a 55-25 vote blocking the bill package that included ~10 billion for ICE. Thank you to everyone who contacted their Senators– your pressure & voices matter! Negotiations on DHS bill are still ongoing. bit.ly/3ZOaKWw

🚨 Yesterday, a federal judge postponed the Trump Admins attempt to strip Haitian TPS holders of status while the case proceeds All TPS status protections remain in effect, including that they cannot be detained based on their immigration status + remain authorized to work

As Border Patrol expands its reach beyond the border zone constitutional lines are being crossed. Officials claim “inference” w/ enforcement causes violence. Exercising your Constitutional rights & knowing the law–filming, protesting, gathering– is NOT interference. ✊

Our staff attorney Jeremy Jong spoke with @truthout.org about the horrifying conditions in ICE custody. “If you detain more people, more people are going to die. These are not places that are set up to give anywhere near a decent level of health care.” ⬇️ truthout.org/articles/ice...
