UPDATE: Alexander is free!

Today, ICE agents arrested Alexander, a 21-year-old immigrant, in the halls of 26 Federal Plaza — mere hours after a federal judge barred federal agents from making arrests at New York City immigration courts Monday evening.

NYLAG is filing a habeas corpus petition to fight for Alexander’s release, because immigrant New Yorkers deserve due process and a system that values justice over cruelty.

WE’RE SUING the Trump administration 🚨 Immigration judges are churning out bond denials — decisions that effectively eliminate a crucial tool for immigrants seeking release from unjust detention. We demand to know how judges are making these decisions, because immigrant New Yorkers deserve better than a system hellbent on detaining and deporting people.

No shadow surveillance tech for ICE! 🚫🔎

🚨When immigrants’ civil liberties are under attack, all of our civil liberties are at stake. For the past year, NYLAG has defended thousands of immigrants against ICE’s cruel dragnet. ICE deploying invasive technology doesn’t just threaten immigrants, it undermines every New Yorker’s fundamental constitutional right to privacy.
