NEW! Our incredible legal team at @immcouncil.org just secured a victory in federal court, reinforcing a ruling blocking blocking ICE from taking unaccompanied children into ICE detention on their 18th birthday, and re-detaining previously-released teenagers. Proud to work with such awesome lawyers!

So excited to have a poem in the upcoming issue of @prairie-schooner.bsky.social!

The people of Chicago won Trump, Kristi Noem and ICE lost Not only did Greg Bovino and his agents leave the city in disgrace A judge ruled that they must release as many as 615 unjustly detained immigrants Plus-they must stop pressuring immigrants to voluntarily leave Never Stop Resisting
