While many gather for the holidays, families like Vicente Ventura Aguilar’s are missing integral family members at the holiday table this year because of cruel ICE tactics. We're holding DHS accountable. Help us #FindVicente and reunite families: https://t.co/ptwtYSWHNN

Good night to repost @ImmDef client Andry Hernandez Romero telling @Timodc about the torture he experienced while in CECOT. Ironically, while Andry was still there, @60Minutes told his story. 9 months later, they pull a story on this topic hours before it is set to air. 👀
EXCLUSIVE: @Timodc spoke to Andry Hernández Romero as he shared his harrowing journey through U.S. detention that led to imprisonment in El Salvador. He speaks about abuse, survival, and rebuilding his life through faith, community, and his hope for the future. Watch it here:

Just fielded a call to @ImmDef about ICE detaining parents & their 5 year old daughter at an immigration appointment yesterday. Hard to imagine the depravity of detaining a 5 year old, never-mind 6 days before Christmas. May the new year bring us more justice, & less cruelty.

Julio is 43 & living w/end‑stage kidney failure that caused a heart attack & stroke. Instead of releasing him to pursue his case from home, ICE has him handcuffed to a hospital bed under guard. @MSNOWNews 🔗

An LGBTQ couple’s marriage-based immigration case is stalled, leaving one partner detained in ICE prison, while the very system meant to resolve it blocks her path forward. “This is a Kafkaesque nightmare,” told Alvaro M. Huerta on @TheAdvocateMag. 🔗 https://t.co/P9tqanusre

The Trump administration has stopped releasing these kids to their families and loved ones, and is not saying why.

Children belong with families, not in govt custody. ImmDef defends nearly 2K kids each year—because no child should face the immigration system alone. Hear their voices through their art. ❤️ Defend them: https://t.co/i3fLfqalQ8

1 yr after a surprise federal inspection at SD ICE prisons DHS’s Inspector General reports rundown conditions our team & clients know too well. “Findings matched what my clients reported,” said our Managing Atty. 🔗

Our client, battling renal failure & seizures, was tackled in his driveway after dialysis and abducted by ICE. Now he's detained far from doctors & family, including a son in the army. For the sick, ICE custody is a death sentence. Help us bring him home:

Thank you, @Rep_Magaziner, for forcing @Sec_Noem to not just face these vets but also how her dept has betrayed them. Their cases demand accountability, and we continue fighting for their return. #BringThemHome 🔗

Magaziner: How many US military veterans have you deported? Noem: Sir, we have not deported U.S. Citizens or military veterans. Magaziner: We are joined on zoom by a gentleman who is army combat veteran who was shot twice while serving our country in Panama in 1989. Earlier

We’ve stood with deported vets in TJ & beyond - men & women who served this country only to be abandoned by it. They’re not hard to find, you just have to be willing to admit America failed them. #BringThemHome:

As the daughter and sister to veterans, this one is personal. @KristiNoem is wrong. I've been to Tijuana and spoken to deported vets who have served our country and should be brought home. Learn more about the work @ImmDef does to bring our Vets home here:
