In the #GideonvWainwright case, SCOTUS ruled 63 yrs ago: “lawyers in criminal courts are necessities, not luxuries.” Among those excluded were those facing deportation. In the age of mass deportations, immigrants face the full power of the federal government—without a lawyer.

Access to representation is essential to ensuring everyone has a real chance to defend their rights in court. The #FairnessToFreedom campaign thanks our partners for driving this critical litigation and working toward a fairer immigration system. @npnewamericans.bsky.social

#Breaking: A federal court blocked key parts of a sweeping immigration appeals rule that would have gutted immigrants’ ability to appeal deportation decisions. Though more work is still needed to ensure the rule is defeated, this decision protects a critical safeguard in our immigration system.

ICE continues to abduct people from immigration court, tear families apart, and detain people in inhumane conditions. Recent operations have even resulted in fatal shootings. This is not public safety, this is flat out cruelty.

Last week, the House of Representatives passed a federal spending bill that funnels more resources to the Department of Homeland Security to further expand its violent detention and deportation agenda.

Right now, our communities are being arrested at routine court hearings, fast-tracked for deportation, and held in inhumane detention, often without a lawyer to represent them. This is an INSULT to our nation’s values of fairness and due process.
