Following a SCOTUS decision, the Trump admin must provide our client Y.H.G. under ICE detention adequate notice and a fair opportunity to challenge his wrongful designation as an “alien enemy” before a court of law. Read about it in Bloomberg News: archive.is/URyxN

I’ve asked Mayor Daniel Lurie and his admin multiple times to reconsider a policy that would evict several hundred children and their families from shelters after 90 days. To no avail. Today I am introducing legislation to protect a child’s right to shelter…

WOW. ICE essentially admits to having fraudulently obtained a criminal warrant against Columbia University for an "investigation" for "harboring" undocumented immigrants while seeking to arrest Yunseo Chung, who has a green card! You can't "harbor" someone here legally!

Korean student at Columbia is now the latest target of ICE, who have told her parents that her permanent residency status has been revoked. Yunseo Chung was not an encampment leader—she just participated in a few protests. The dragnet is widening and now is the time to stand up.
Jason Paladino@jason_paladino

NEW: ICE is hunting for Yunseo Chung, a Columbia student who attended pro-Palestine protests. Chung came to the US from Korea with her family at age 7, and was her high school's valedictorian. She's a lawful permanent resident. Here's what we know so far. 🧵

Our senior staff attorney Jordan Wells spoke to ABC News about our lawsuit against the Trump admin to stop the unlawful deportation of Columbia student Yunseo Chung. We stopped ICE in its tracks, but the fight is not over.
ABC News Live@ABCNewsLive

A Columbia student sued the U.S. this week to prevent her deportation and won — at least for now. "It is absolutely preposterous to suggest that her speech on a college campus poses serious foreign policy consequences for the United States," the 21-year-old's attorney says.
