Nadie debería estar detenido indefinidamente en una prisión de ICE. “Estamos viendo personas que realmente ganan sus casos de inmigración languideciendo en la cárcel.”
La abogada supervisora de ImmDef, Sarah Houston, habló con la @apnews.com sobre este fenómeno alarmante.
Show your love for immigrants by calling your reps and urging them to reject additional DHS funding until ICE's terror stops, funds are cut, and ICE and CBP are out of our communities❣️

From untreated asthma to unsafe living conditions, our clients at Adelanto say they are being held in inhumane conditions. Those allegations are now at the center of L.T. v. ICE, a federal lawsuit brought w/ ImmDef as counsel.

Immigration enforcement hasn’t declined in SoCal, it’s become faster & less visible. As ImmDef’s Yliana Johansen-Méndez told @theguardian.com, ICE is using rapid “smash & grab” tactics that limit families’ & attorneys’ ability to respond in real time.

No one should be held in ICE prison indefinitely. “We’re seeing people who actually win their immigration cases just languishing in jail.” ImmDef Managing Attorney Sarah Houston spoke with @apnews.com about this disturbing phenomena.

After 278 days, the final child was reunited with her mother and siblings, welcomed at the airport with balloons before finally going home together. This was a true cross-team effort, and we’re committed to continuing this fight until justice is the standard, not the exception. Sí se puede!

ICE denied having Leonela, 8mo's pregnant, then deported her to Nicaragua days later, without counsel. All while attorneys members of congress actively searched for her. This should alarm everyone.

When Congress and legal advocates are blocked from inspecting ICE detention centers, transparency collapses and lives are put at risk. ImmDef Legal Services Director Melissa Shepard joined lawmakers demanding accountability at Adelanto. Oversight is not optional.

Blocking oversight during a mass detention surge not only undermines the separation of powers and erodes the rule of law - but it allows deaths and inhumane conditions to continue. Congress must resume oversight immediately to save lives. @democracyforward.org

“The conditions are designed to make people give up their legal cases. It is a system built to make people break down," said Álvaro M. Huerta, ImmDef.

This facility is meant to break people down. Our legal team has seen firsthand the mold, disease, medical neglect, and inadequate food and water inside the Adelanto ICE Processing Center. In one year, the population surged from 3 to nearly 2,000.

Join us for a virtual community forum at 6pm PT, where we will discuss the Vazquez-Perdomo v Noem case and how it challenges ICE’s tactics of racial profiling and how everyone has constitutional rights.

We filed L.T. v ICE because the Constitution doesn't take a break behind ICE prison doors. We will continue fighting in court until DHS is forced to provide humane, safe conditions for every person in its custody.
