In a recent report, we identified 76 ways that the Trump administration's mass deportation agenda is making our democracy increasingly unrecognizable. www.aclu.org/news/immigra...

Mass Deportations Are Breaking Our Democracy. Here’s How.

ACLU breaks down key findings from our latest report on mass deportations' impact on democracy.

011

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

The Trump administration and its allies have been working hard to undermine our democracy, but we’re working harder to stop them. Protecting our constitutional freedoms means protecting our elections for every eligible American.

This back-to-school season, don’t forget you have a constitutional right to express yourself.

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

Homelessness is a policy failure, not a personal one. Our new polling shows that the public wants housing, not handcuffs, to solve homelessness.

031

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

The underlying cause of America’s homelessness crisis is the severe shortage of affordable housing. Arresting people doesn’t solve the problem — it only makes it worse.

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

TONIGHT on ACLU National's monthly people power action call, we'll go over how the Trump administration is attacking the civil rights of unhoused people and gutting real solutions to homelessness — and what we can all do about it. RSVP at the link in our bio.

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

We stand with Santa Fe's immigrant community and the advocates and local leaders supporting them and will continue protecting the rights and dignity of all New Mexicans.

020

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

New Mexicans deserve better. No one should have to avoid accessing health care, school, or jobs out of fear of racial profiling by ICE, and no child should live in fear of separation from their parents. ICE must be held accountable for the human consequences of its reckless practices.

121

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

These incidents and others raise urgent questions about unlawful arrests and due process violations in federal immigration enforcement, particularly now that agents are operating near places once considered off-limits, like health clinics.

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

And yet the one-year-old was held for about five hours. While ICE eventually released the baby and their mother, with an ankle monitor, ICE continues to detain the baby’s father and uncle.

110

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Another reported incident occurred over the weekend, in which ICE stopped a family, including a one-year-old U.S. citizen baby, and detained them based on mistaken identity. ICE later admitted that they were targeting someone else with a similar last name.

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

One of the reported incidents on Wednesday was a parent detained in the parking lot of the La Familia health clinic. Federal immigration officials reportedly followed a parent and a child as they drove from their home to the clinic and then arrested the parent in the parking lot.

110

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

We are deeply alarmed by reports of at least 16 immigration arrests in Santa Fe and surrounding communities over the past four days.

131

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Police officers have repeatedly used Flock's surveillance network to access data about people they know and track their whereabouts. This is indefensible, warrantless surveillance.

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 31/07/2026

People with disabilities aren’t asking for the world — we’re only asking that our elected leaders treat us with dignity and make policy decisions that follow the law and ensure access for people with disabilities. Everyone deserves the opportunity to live and work freely.

In our July virtual action call, we'll share critical updates about our new report on ICE and CBP’s abuses and how to take action to rein them in. RSVP Now: act.aclu.org/a/2026-july-...

Federal agents are abusing people in the streets. Our new report, Agents of Chaos and Cruelty, goes over the egregious patterns we found while analyzing 1,200+ incidents related to immigration enforcement from last year.

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 21/07/2026

Too many people have lost their lives due to ICE's violence and negligence. These devastating tragedies are a predictable result of President Trump and Stephen Miller's anti-immigrant campaign. Tell our leaders in Congress to stop enabling ICE's violence: action.aclu.org/send-message...

A new ACLU report reveals the scale of civil rights violations committed by ICE and the police forces it has deputized — from racial profiling to school lockdowns.

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

There were 418 instances of ICE pushing, shoving, tackling, and pinning people during enforcement actions in 2025. An additional 150 incidents involved people engaged in activities protected by the First Amendment, including protestors, legal observers, elected officials, journalists, and clergy.

Last year, 624 instances of ICE enforcement activities happened in everyday locations like neighborhood sidewalks, bus stops, gas stations, grocery stores, and malls—changing the nature of American life.

The NMEntiende cohort is launching "Crafty Convos," a pilot initiative designed to bring New Mexicans together over snacks and crafts to have respectful, meaningful discussions about religion and politics. www.nmentiende.org/news/nmentie...

Our country was founded on the guarantee that we’re all born equal with certain inalienable rights. We won't let any president, or anyone, get away with attacking it.

011

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 06/07/2026

Since the passage of the NMCRA, New Mexicans finally have a fair chance to hold public institutions accountable when they bring claims to state court. Happy fifth anniversary to this landmark law!

010

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 06/07/2026

Before the NMCRA, people with legitimate civil rights cases were forced into federal court, where qualified immunity often shut the courthouse doors before a victim ever had a real chance to be heard.

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

As the U.S. Supreme Court erodes well-settled rights one by one, the New Mexico Civil Rights Act stands as a critical safeguard to our rights in New Mexico. As we celebrate its 5th anniversary, we're thankful for the extensive protections it offers us.

082

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 02/07/2026

Five years ago, we said that when people in positions of power violate our rights, New Mexicans deserve a meaningful way to hold them accountable. With the federal rollback of civil rights and liberties ongoing, this piece of legislation has been substantial in safeguarding our rights.

In the mid-1900s, thousands of government workers were fired or forced to resign solely for being queer. This era is known as the Lavender Scare — and we see history repeating itself under the Trump administration. www.aclu-nm.org/news/trump-a...

What Was the Lavender Scare?

An effort to push queer people out of public life during the Red Scare takes familiar shape under the Trump administration today.

We won’t stop saying it: ICE doesn’t belong in our communities.

This marks an important victory but the work continues. We, along with our partners, remain committed to preventing new agreements between ICE and local governments, keeping prohibitions on 287(g) agreements, and fighting for united families and safe communities in our state.

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

Even during moments of political attacks and uncertainty, New Mexico continues to choose community. Together, we created policy that is rooted in dignity, privacy, and safety for all New Mexicans.

ACLU of New Mexico @aclunm.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

The Immigrant Safety Act represents an important step toward limiting local participation in the detention and deportation system. Decades of organizing led by immigrant families, workers, community advocates, and allies across the state brought us here.

BREAKING: The Immigrant Safety Act takes effect on May 20, marking a crucial milestone in the fight for united families and safer communities across New Mexico. Let's be clear: New Mexico stands with immigrant families.

The right to due process requires that every family be treated individually –– not as a category. New Mexico children deserve the chance to grow up with the people who love them and for decisions made about their wellbeing to be grounded in law, medicine, and their actual circumstances.

"Instead, it should be made through an individualized assessment of the particular circumstances of each child," said Deanna Warren, staff attorney with the ACLU of NM.
