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.
