immigrant deportations

A Colombian legislator joined local clergy and immigrant advocates on Sunday in demanding Alligator Alcatraz be closed and detainees released to end what they describe as a "national and international" human rights crisis.

Amid mounting outrage across the nation over the fatal shooting of 37-year-old ICU nurse Alex Pretti by Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis, an ongoing civic campaign in Miami is continuing its clarion call condemning the Trump administration's "cruel immigration policies and dangerous abuses of power targeting immigrant communities."

Although deportation data is limited because the federal government has stopped releasing it, available figures show Trump remains far below his goal of deporting 1 million people a year.

Dozens of Democratic House members, including all eight Florida Democrats, are asking the Trump administration to restore Temporary Protected Status, or TPS, to hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan immigrants in the wake of last Saturday’s U.S. military strikes on the country.

Without directly praising President Donald Trump, Gov. Ron DeSantis Monday at Florida’s “Deportation Depot” condemned the “destructive” Nicolás Maduro government days after U.S. military forces captured him.

She desperately wanted to get out of the country. It was mid-May and Pérez, a Venezuelan mother of two, couldn’t survive on her own in Chicago anymore.

Sunday's protest, now in its eighth week, comes amid new reports of alleged medical neglect, violations of attorney-client privilege, and a large number of detainees who have all but disappeared from official federal records.

Calling it "exactly the kind of disaster that Congress took pains to avoid," attorneys for immigrants held at a detention center in the Everglades filed a lawsuit alleging Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration lacks the authority to run the facility.

Three families awaited news about their loved ones, who were sent to a maximum-security Salvadoran prison. Now that the families have been reunited, they open up about the harm they experienced.

A Venezuelan migrant took the first step Thursday toward suing the United States for what he says was his wrongful detention and removal to a notorious prison in El Salvador.

Venezuelan migrants imprisoned for months in El Salvador under a U.S. immigration crackdown have reunited with their families. The men spent months in a prison some of them described as "hell" because of the severe abuses they allege happened there.

Like most of the more than 230 Venezuelan men deported to a Salvadoran prison, José Manuel Ramos Bastidas had followed U.S. immigration rules. Then Trump rewrote them.
