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...

Now ICE plans to target #Haitians in Ohio, claiming that it's safe for them to be deported to #Haiti. No. The Haitian capital is a war zone between the police and the gangs. @jakobjohnston.bsky.social @repshontelbrown.bsky.social @alotrolado-org.bsky.social ayibopost.com/how-a-drone-...

The Trump’s administration attack on Temporary Protected Status continues– putting migrants from multiple countries migrants at risk for losing what has become a lifeline. DHS is moving to terminate TPS for Haiti on Feb. 3, a move that ignores both the law & reality of the country. bit.ly/4t5cqsl

The Trump Administration is set to terminate TPS on February 3rd, putting more than 375,000 Haitian TPS holders at risk of immediate danger, including family separation. LIVES ARE ON THE LINE. We NEED your help to protect them #TPSForHaiti 🇭🇹

Immigration enforcement insists they are targeting dangerous felons and immigrants convicted of a violent crime, yet 4 children from the same school district in Minnesota have been taken this month.

As federal immigration agents flood Minneapolis it is hard to ignore a recent claim from the ​​Department of Homeland Security: “ICE is not going to schools to arrest children — we are protecting children”. But children are being hurt in the process of their operations every single day.

We’re excited to announce the launch of the Anti-ICE Supper Club 🍽️✊. A limited series of benefit dinners uniting food, journalism, and resistance—supporting frontline groups defending immigrant & refugee communities.

This is great work from @immcouncil.org: A comprehensive report on what's really going on with Trump and Stephen Miller's ever-growing immigrant detention system. Key point: They estimate that it could grow to as big as 135,000 beds. Report here: www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/report/immig...

Are you waiting to hear back from the U.S. government about an immigration application? USCIS is putting a significant number of applications on hold and even threatening to reopen some applications it's approved in the past few years. @daralind.bsky.social explains what you need to know.

In a year filled with heartbreaking headlines, we have extraordinary news to share: two of our clients were freed from ICE detention this week — and reunited with their families after many painful months apart.

ICE agents’ refusal to wear proper identification has opened the door for impersonators to harm others. A 17 yr old US citizen had a gun pulled on him by a man claiming to be ICE. ICE’s unchecked aggression has already created an environment where abuse thrives.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court will review the Trump administration’s appeal in our case challenging the former “turnback”/“metering” policy, which blocked people from seeking asylum at the southern border. The Ninth Circuit ruled the policy unlawful. 1/5 www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

In an attempt to warn ICE officers that children were nearby, a U.S. citizen was shot. ICE agents hide behind masks, swearing they’re under threat + their lives are at risk. It's a lie that fuels violence w 0 accountability. It’s *our* lives at risk, not ICE agents’.

So deeply grateful for @jessethorn.bsky.social's support 🙏💕! No one should die seeking safety. We fight back with legal aid, food, and hope. Join the fight. Donate today. ✊ #BuildHopeNotWalls

ICE continues to terrorize schools, homes + now hospitals–waving guns in staff’s faces, even to shackling patients, Gov. Newsom has signed SB 81 to prevent ICE from entering medical facilities w/out proper docs. But let's face it, ICE is lawless.

Pregnant women are being horrifically mistreated in ICE custody. This is an outrage, one that unveils the glaring hypocrisy of the “pro-life” party who claim to be for protecting the unborn yet are fine w endangering the lives of immigrant mothers + their babies.

In August, ICE agents in full tactical gear blew the front door off a home in order to violently arrest an expectant mom who was getting back from a medical check-up. “… an agent turned an outdoor surveillance camera away from what was transpiring—an act she caught on camera and shared w/KTLA.”

Our client, Afghan human rights advocate Ali Faqirzada, was detained by ICE moments after being found to have a strong asylum claim. Read how Ali's community has rallied for his release. Join our campaign to #FreeAli: bit.ly/FreeAliFaqirzada

L.A. County has passed a vote to provide rent relief to families affected by ICE immigration raids. Rent relief funds will be available via an online portal for those who apply within the next two months; however, this does not diminish the horrific treatment people have endured.
