BREAKING: We, @aclu.org and CLEAR are joining Rümeysa Öztürk’s legal team after ICE unlawfully arrested and detained her in retaliation for her political speech. Speaking out against a war, a policy, or a government is not a crime.
The government must immediately release Ms. Öztürk.

I will never not be proud of Marc and ELG for standing up for what is right. I will never not be appalled and disappointed by the cowardice, greed and self-interest of so many.

My advice: Find a law firm that will not back down and will never bend a knee.
