Immigration Detention Conditions
Detention and Deportation Infrastructure FOIA Cases
Every year, ICE and other federal agencies spend billions of taxpayer dollars on a system to detain and deport immigrants. The people detained in this system face persistent medical neglect, abuse, and other violations. President Trump has threatened to dramatically expand this system, which will multiply the harms it causes. We鈥檝e sued to obtain information about how this system operates so that we are better prepared to defend immigrants whose rights are under attack.
