These actions reflect a stark misunderstanding of the rules governing voter eligibility and offend the integrity of the democratic process, in violation of several state and federal laws as well as the constitutions of New Jersey and the United States.

Immigration detention is cruel and inhumane. It's also deadly. The deaths at Delaney Hall – along with more than 50 others in ICE custody since Trump took office in 2025 – confirm a dangerous system of neglect and abuse. It’s past time for Congress to act.

ACLU of New Jersey @aclu-nj.org · 25/09/2026

ICRA codified important changes, including imposing limits on the length of time a person could spend in solitary confinement and requiring active monitoring by corrections personnel and mental health professionals. But ICRA has not been fully implemented in New Jersey.

ACLU of New Jersey @aclu-nj.org · 25/09/2026

Solitary confinement is torture. This week, we joined New Jersey Prison Justice Watch, survivors of isolated confinement, and partners to mark the 7th anniversary of the passage of the Isolated Confinement Restriction Act (ICRA).

ACLU of New Jersey @aclu-nj.org · 22/09/2026

The faith leaders, civil and human rights organizations, and formerly incarcerated people who advocated for ICRA laid the foundation for ambitious, humanity-centered change within the criminal legal system. They recognized that extreme isolation causes tremendous harm and makes us all less safe.

But, the Office of the Corrections Ombudsman has confirmed that these units continue to subject people to prolonged isolation, despite what the law mandates.

ACLU of New Jersey @aclu-nj.org · 22/09/2026

ICRA was intended to protect incarcerated people from the extreme physical and psychological harm brought by solitary confinement. In the wake of the law’s enactment, the DOC eliminated housing units that used punitive isolation and replaced them with so-called restorative housing units (RHUs).

The deaths at Delaney Hall – along with more than 50 others in ICE custody since Trump took office in 2025 – confirm a system of medical neglect, unsanitary conditions, and abuse. That is why congressional oversight matters. Lawmakers must end immigration detention once and for all.
