At Largest ICE Detention Camp, Staff Bet on Detainee Suicides, AP Reports Camp East Montana has received several 911 calls in the span of five months about immigrants trying to harm themselves.

Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.

Dreamers are part of the fabric of this nation.

Rep. @ramirez.house.gov calls on Democrats and Republicans alike to prove it by protecting Dreamers and passing a pathway to citizenship.

“It is past time to make it happen.” #HomeIsHere

Trump wants to paint Dreamers as "the worst of the worst." But less than 14% of those detained up by DHS last year had violent criminal records.

Here’s who Dreamers actually are.

Sen. @padilla.senate.gov: "They're school teachers, they're caregivers, they're nurses and doctors... and more."

"The United States government made a promise over 13 years ago... Straightforward, a promise."

Despite keeping their end of the bargain, Dreamers are now being swept up in this administration's mass deportation campaign.

Watch Sen. @padilla.senate.gov’s remarks on the government's broken promise.

Dreamers deserve stability, not fear.

The only permanent solution is clear: Congress MUST pass the DREAM Act and create a pathway to citizenship. #HomeIsHere

It’s been a rough week for the Trump administration.

Backlash to their reckless war of choice in Iran. The primary election results on Tuesday. Kristi Noem’s pathetic hearings on Capitol Hill, showing the corruption, cruelty, and chaos that defines their anti-immigrant, mass deportation crusade.

“For over 20 years we’ve fought for Dreamers.” - Sen. @durbin.senate.gov

Dreamers grew up here. Going to our schools, pledging allegiance, building their futures in our country.

But now, as DACA recipients face detention & deportation, the urgency for permanent protections has never been clearer.

“Policies shld recognize and uplift the invaluable labor of the immigrant women who are the backbone of so many industries,” said National Women’s Law Center. “Anti-immigrant policies hurt everyone, destabilizing the economy & making life harder for workers and consumers alike.” #WomensHistoryMonth

Abuse of Power Watch - March 6th A weekly collection of articles and stories of the federal government's abuses of power.

📢 "Abuse of power is un-American."

Yet, every day the Trump administration abuses power to undermine our values and Constitution. These aren't isolated stories, it's a pattern.

“Frankly, we demand the truth. Whether it is incompetence or an intentional attempt to mislead us, DHS is not being forthcoming about their encounters with Dreamers,” Rep. @ramirez.house.gov continued.

Democrats Join Deported DACA Recipient to Push for Her Return The Trump administration has deported dozens of immigrants brought into the country as children.

"Senators @padilla.senate.gov and @durbin.senate.gov, and Rep. @ramirez.house.gov vowed on Thursday to continue pressing the Trump administration to stop targeting immigrants who came to the U.S. as children and bring back some of the people it already deported." #HomeisHere

The Emotional Cost of Parental Deportation - JSTOR Daily A study of US citizen children shows how immigration enforcement and family separation affect mental health and stability.

What effect does parental deportation (or the threat of it) have on U.S. citizen children? My latest at JSTOR Daily focuses on research into that question by Lauren Gulbas and Luis Zayas -- notably it's a 2017 article, so...everything is worse now.

Noem’s removal is a victory for accountability and for the Americans who refused to stay silent in the face of corruption and cruelty.
@hispaniccaucus.bsky.social leadership statement 👇🏽

Goodbye and good riddance.

But don’t take the bait. Firing Noem alone won’t halt Trump’s campaign of terror.

The atrocities happening by ICE behind the walls of detention facilities and in broad daylight have proven that ICE cannot be reformed.

Abolish ICE NOW.

Statement from @vcardenas.bsky.social reacting to reports that DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has lost her job.

americasvoice.org/press_releas...

Trump fires Kristi Noem as DHS chief, names Sen. Markwayne Mullin to replace her Stepping in as acting secretary is GOP Sen. Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma who Trump said had "Wisdom and Courage required to Advance our America First Agenda."

This is not accountability, just a reshuffling of the enablers of the Trump/Miller agenda.

The problem isn't just with Sec. Noem, DHS, ICE or CBP. Nothing will change until we until we recognize and hold accountable those who are ultimately responsible for what is playing out before our eyes.
