ICE collected the DNA of nearly a million people last year, adding their genetic profiles to a database used for criminal investigations. Under current rules, DHS only needs to place a person in detention to collect their DNA — a practice many argue is unconstitutional.

When we published our 2024 report “Raiding the Genome,” we suspected that DHS agents might be taking DNA from US citizens. We can now confirm that those suspicions were correct. www.raidingthegenome.org

"This program is illegal, unconstitutional, and deeply corrosive to civil rights and liberties. No amount of coerced 'consent' can make it otherwise." Stevie Glaberson on the Department of Homeland Security’s accelerated DNA collection program.

Last year, we published “Raiding the Genome: How the United States Government Is Abusing Its Immigration Powers to Amass DNA for Future Policing.” Since then, we’ve continued to research DHS’s DNA-collection program. Today, we’re sharing some updates. raidingthegenome.org

Three years ago, we released “American Dragnet: Data-Driven Deportation in the 21st Century.” The report describes the surveillance apparatus that Trump is using to target immigrants, activists and anyone else who challenges his agenda. We’re re-releasing it today with a new foreword.
