We’re at a local detention facility today and this story weighs heavily on us. Just like all the stories of our clients who are treated as un-human by our country’s immigration policies and practices. #wefight

Law enforcement agencies do not have to comply with ICE requests to keep a person in custody when they would otherwise be released. These so-called ICE holds are unconstitutional. We support Kent County's policy change to require judicial review. aclumich.org/en/news/ice-no…

ICE approaches immigrants on the street, at work, in their car, at court. Remember: #WeHaveRights. Be prepared for encounters with #ICE. Watch in 7 languages and make an emergency plan: aclu.org/we-have-rights

"The new rule is also likely to scare millions of immigrants and their family members, including millions of U.S. citizen children, away from accessing public benefit programs" -- MIRC's Tania Morris Diaz. #PublicCharge
