Rep. Ayanna Pressley Co-Sponsors Bill to Abolish ICE Amid Rising Deaths in Custody

Rep. Ayanna Pressley Co-Sponsors Bill to Abolish ICE Amid Rising Deaths in Custody

Representative Ayanna Pressley (D-Massachusetts) is among 13 House Democrats who have co-sponsored the 'Melt ICE Act,' a bill introduced by Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-Illinois) aimed at dismantling Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The legislation seeks to end the Department of Homeland Security’s authority to surveil and jail immigrants and redirect enforcement funding towards federal housing and healthcare programs. This push comes in response to a significant increase in deaths within ICE custody, with at least 53 fatalities reported since President Trump's return to office, making the past fiscal year the deadliest in the agency’s history. Additionally, there have been reports of federal immigration agents shooting and killing individuals, including two unarmed fathers in their vehicles and a man fatally struck by a semi-truck while fleeing agents. Advocates argue that ICE's tactics are leading to civil rights violations and causing widespread fear among immigrant communities.

Supreme Court to Review Mandatory Detention Policy for Long-Term Immigrant Residents

Supreme Court to Review Mandatory Detention Policy for Long-Term Immigrant Residents

The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to review a significant immigration dispute concerning the Trump administration's mandatory detention policy for long-term immigrant residents. This policy, implemented by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in July 2025, mandates the detention of all individuals who entered the country without legal admission, including those paroled, while they undergo removal proceedings. This applies regardless of how long they have resided in the U.S., and it restricts bond hearings to only those immigrants who were initially admitted but later lost their legal status. The administration is seeking to overturn an appeals court ruling that found this policy cannot treat long-term residents the same as individuals attempting to enter the country. The case before the Supreme Court stems from the detention of Ricardo Aparecido Barbosa da Cunha, a Brazilian man who was detained in Massachusetts after residing in the U.S. for over a decade and was initially denied a bond hearing.

Family of University of Iowa Employee Detained by ICE Calls for Her Return, Congresswoman Responds

The family of Fatou Traore, a University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics custodian, is advocating for her release after she was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on September 24. According to her son, Esoumaila Diallo, ICE agents stopped Traore in Iowa City while she was en route to pick up her sister. Traore, originally from Ivory Coast, has resided in Iowa City for decades and is reportedly being held at a facility in Monroe, Louisiana, with a scheduled deportation to Sierra Leone, a country her family states she has never visited. Local advocates, including Mazahir Salih, executive director of the Immigrant Welcome Network of Johnson County, are assisting the family. During a rally, speakers urged U.S. Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks to intervene. Miller-Meeks' office subsequently released a letter sent to the Department of Homeland Security, seeking information on Traore's case and requesting a stay on her deportation. ICE stated that Traore, an "illegal alien from the Ivory Coast," has...

Congressman George Latimer Blames President Trump and Allies for ICE Policies Amid Community Protest

Congressman George Latimer Blames President Trump and Allies for ICE Policies Amid Community Protest

Congressman George Latimer attributed current U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) policies to President Trump and his Republican allies in Congress during a community rally in Larchmont. The event, organized by the Coalition for Understanding Racism through Education (CURE) and the Community Resource Center, gathered over 170 attendees, including activists, elected officials, and faith leaders. The protest addressed the detention of more than 500 Westchester residents, including 30 from Larchmont and Mamaroneck, by what speakers described as 'armed and masked agents in body armor.' Latimer characterized the administration's policy as a 'manifestation of outright racism,' drawing a parallel between the 'spirit of ICE today' and the 'insurrectionists of January 6, 2021.' State Assemblyman Steve Otis also spoke, asserting that conditions in detention centers would not be permissible even in prisoner-of-war camps under the Geneva Conventions. Speakers highlighted that over 87% of those detained have...
