The reality for many asylum seekers: The CBP One app isn’t working for them. They are languishing for months waiting to get a desperately needed appointment. Lindsay Toczylowski, Executive Director Immigrant Defenders Law Center, has heard this directly from people stuck waiting in dangerous conditions in Tijuana, Mexico. #WelcomeWithDignity is calling upon the U.S. government to redirect resources at the border to increase staffing and available appointments now.

We've said it before and we'll say it again: ❌Deterrence DOESN'T work. ❌Deterrence CREATES disorder and chaos. ❌Deterrence CAUSES danger for vulnerable asylum seekers. President Biden's border policies have dismantled our asylum system and force desperate people into desperate situations. We have the resources and ability to welcome people with dignity at our southern border what we lack is the political will to do so. "It’s just really disheartening to see how vulnerable people fleeing danger are used as part of political theater,' said ImmDef Directing Attorney Melissa Shepard to San Francisco Chronicle.

Did you know there are only 4 people currently detained in Adelanto ICE prison? The intake ban created under Roman v. Wolf bars ICE/GEO from imprisoning more people at this location and is at risk of being lifted. If Judge Hatter Jr. lifts the ban, the number of people imprisoned would DRASTICALLY increase at Adelanto. ImmDef joined the #ShutDownAdelanto coalition partners CLUE Justice, Detention Watch Network, OC RapidResponse Network, Nikkei Progressives, Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice and others to advocate to keep the intake ban IN PLACE to protect communities and families. Adelanto is notorious for substandard care, abusive treatment, and unsanitary conditions which have proven deadly in the past. Don't lift the ban, #ShutItDown! #ShutDownAdelanto #CommunitiesNotCages
