🚨 NY Supreme Court Judge BLOCKS Mayor Adams + his administration from moving forward with their plan to return ICE to Rikers until a hearing in the weeks to come. Thank you @NYCCouncil for joining advocates in being clear: New Yorkers will not be fooled - hands off! #ICEOut

BREAKING: @NYCSpeakerAdams and @nyccouncil sued @NYCMayor, challenging his plans to re-embed ICE agents at Rikers. We applaud this quick action and are proud to see true New Yorker Spirit in action! Full IDP statement🧵:

BREAKING NEWS 🚨 ICE is withholding $300 million in bond money from families who freed loved ones from detention. A class action lawsuit was filed today to hold ICE accountable. ICE has profited off of the immigrants' suffering and separation for too long. https://t.co/2g4C685NNU

So proud of my students who brought home my very first client, 20 years after I lost his case and he was deported. They did what I could not, convincing the court that this veteran should not be deported. https://t.co/o0uunTzKkb

🚨Breaking: 30+ immigrant rights orgs call on Gov Hochul to withdraw LaSalle’s nomination as Chief Judge. We stand w/ many others because any harm to workers, restrictions to repro access, and lack of due process hurt NY’s immigrant communities. Letter: https://t.co/KbhXvHfAzW

Dear Reporters, including @NickMiroff @aflores & others, please stop saying the Biden admin was “forced” to restart MPP. The D Ct order permits the Biden admin to terminate it w a new memo. They've had TWO MONTHS to write it. I could've done it in a weekend. This was a choice. 1/

In a White House full of people—including Rice—who saw the miserable failure of this thesis under Obama, how does this not get laughed out of the room?

“The jury is still out on how the Biden administration will approach Ice’s shockingly failed program,” @MarkowitzPeter told @guardian. "I hope they will look hard at this research and realize the profound harms of the program.” #FacultyWithImpact https://t.co/sA5SYwpTtI

[Peter Markowitz @MarkowitzPeter]

People shackled by ICE experience profound harms similar to those caused by brick and mortar detention. An alarming 12% experienced suicidal ideation and 67% lost it had difficulty getting a job because of the shackles. #StopShackling
