Immigrant Rights
All the rights and liberties guaranteed by our constitution apply to all immigrants, regardless of immigration status. We challenge the serious civil rights violations faced by immigrant communities.
Our Focus:
- Ensuring no one can be imprisoned in an immigration jail without an opportunity for a hearing.
- Ensuring conditions in which immigrants are detained are humane.
- Ensuring that no one can be deported without a fair hearing and access to legal assistance.
- Protecting against unconstitutional searches and arrests by federal immigration agents.

- Ensuring state officials will not be complicit in unjust federal policies.
