The ICE raids and cruelty we are seeing inflicted on children are unacceptable.

The federal government has stripped legal representation from hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied children. Many will soon face an impossible choice: navigate our immigration system alone or risk detention and deportation.

Our city is stepping up. We've invested $16.9 million in immigration legal services for unaccompanied children, with another $32 million in this year's immigration legal services budget, including rapid-response legal advice and representation for people in detention.

If you need immigration legal support, we're here to help. Our free, confidential Immigration Legal Support Hotline is available in your preferred language, regardless of immigration status.

BREAKING: Governor DeSantis announced that "Alligator Alcatraz" has officially shut down. Through community pushback and litigation pressure, we the people successfully closed the chapter on this facility's dark record. But as people are moved to other facilities, accountability is still needed.

People detained in 26 Federal Plaza were held in over-crowded cells without basic necessities like showers, beds or access to their lawyers. We went to court to hold the government accountable for this inhumane treatment, and ensure that no other people are subjected to these illegal conditions.
Graphic with a black and white aerial image of 26 Federal Plaza, highlighted in yellow. Beneath the photo is a quote, with sworn testimony from an ACLU client named Daniel reading: "I was held in a holding cell at 26 Federal Plaza with about 70 men. We did not have a way to shower or clean ourselves in any capacity. There were not enough toilets and there were no beds; we slept on the floor. The whole time that I was at 26 Federal Plaza, I was never told that I had a right to speak to a lawyer."

There should be oversight of all detention centers. Detainees should have decent food, clean water, sanitary conditions, and appropriate medical care. If DHS can’t deliver, shut it down! Close Delaney hall. Close them all.

The “pro life” party have introduced a bill to give women who access abortion the death penalty. They would rather kill us than let us have control over our own bodies. There’s no exception for rape or incest either. The punishment for rape would be less than the punishment for abortion.

There’s a disturbing lack of outrage over ICE’s aggressive tackling and arrest of a non verbal autistic man in Chicago. Just like the lack of outrage over Rodney Taylor, a disabled double amputee who’s been held in solitary for months. Disabled lives matter too!

Why is no one talking about it? Where's the media? Where's the public outcry? Another example of the pervasive nature of ableism and how society views disabled people as expendable.

“Let them go a month without meals. Maybe they will get a job” First, many SNAP recipients have jobs. They’re just living below the poverty line because of tremendous wealth inequality. Second, many are disabled and children and can’t work. Third, no one should starve to death.
