We’re relieved that Yeonsoo Go has been released from ICE custody and reunited with her family after being wrongfully detained. It’s particularly moving to see so many faith communities unite in support of Yeonsoo, and of all unjustly detained immigrants.

Yeonsoo Go, who was handcuffed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents upon leaving her visa hearing, was kept at a facility in Louisiana, according to the ICE database.

“‘As Mayor Adams tries to endanger our city, we will not back down from a fight to protect immigrant New Yorkers and create a better system for street vendors,’ said Krishnan, the bill's primary sponsor.”.@voteshekar .

On Monday we rallied against Trump’s rescinding of Temporary Protected Status. Now NYC is taking action, suing to reinstate #TPS for Honduras, Nepal, and Nicaragua and protect vulnerable, hardworking New Yorkers seeking safety in the US.

Community members from Nepal and Haiti shared how #TPS has given them a chance to live, work, and build families in the US free of dictatorship, famine, and war. They are most affected by current immigration policies, which is why we will continue to stand with them always.

@nycpa @JumaaneWilliams reminded us that threats against immigrants are threats against all of us. Although many people, even many immigrants, didn’t think things would get as bad as they are now, we can still keep each other safe by actively resisting authoritarian policies.

Yesterday we stood with our immigrant neighbors, particularly #TPS holders, at Queens Borough Hall. @QnsBPRichards stressed that crackdowns on our communities have nothing to do with safety, but with dismantling the cultural diversity & coexistence that exist only in Queens.
"They hate that we are living proof that their beliefs about immigrants are complete BS. Queens has always been the place where immigrants are welcomed with open arms, not closed fists.". - @QnsBPRichards.

Our thoughts are with those k*lled in yesterday's shoot*ng in Midtown Manhattan. We express our deepest condolences to their loved ones, including the family of police office Didarul Islam. Needless to say, we condemn such heinous acts of violence, regardless of the motivation.

Join us at Queens Borough Hall tonight to show support for immigrants in NYC and across the country.
As the far-right Trump regime rips Temporary Protected Status away from many of Queens' immigrant communities, join us at Borough Hall this evening for a rally in solidarity with those impacted by Washington's xenophobia.

If conditions in ICE facilities are as bad as detainees and visitors say they are, our elected leaders and the broader public certainly have a right to know. This is true here in NYC, in Florida, and in ICE detention centers around the country.

Members of Congress join local officials who have already demanded action after THE CITY published videos and data showing conditions endured by detainees for days on end.

“We were able to argue and establish to the court that this boy, who is a student who has no criminal record, who was attending his court hearings, is in fact not a danger to our society, nor is he a flight risk, which is obvious to all of us.”.@nylag .
