Unlawful Detentions and Forced Removals Without Due Process Violate Rights, Endanger Refugees and U.S. Citizens
“Unlawfully detaining and forcibly removing people without due process is a dangerous assault on fundamental rights that puts everyone at risk—not just those seeking refuge, but every person who calls the U.S. home,” said Nili Sarit Yossinger, Executive Director. “The Trump administration is bent on tearing families apart, destabilizing entire communities, and dismantling the very ideals of welcome and safety that define us as a nation. When longtime residents—and even U.S. citizens—are wrongfully detained or deported, it sends a chilling message that no one is safe. Our elected leaders must act immediately to stop these violations, defend due process, and uphold human dignity before more lives are devastated.”
