“Plaintiffs represent millions of Americans across dozens of denominations rooted in the Jewish and Christian faiths,” said Kelsi Corkran. “They file this suit together because their scripture, teaching, and traditions offer irrefutable unanimity on their religious obligation” to welcome immigrants.
Today, on behalf of 27 Jewish and Christian denominations and associations, ICAP challenged DHS’s rescission of the “sensitive locations” policy, which had limited federal immigration enforcement action in places of worship for over 30 years.

1/2: We have reason to believe that events on 4/19 and/or the 50501 Movement may be misrepresented by the Trump admin in an attempt to justify the use of military force.

Let us be clear: our movement is pro-democracy and firmly grounded in non-violence.

What Secretary Rubio is doing is far worse, systematically editing out descriptions of human rights abuses and corruption.

The State Department is changing its mind about what it calls human rights
The agency's annual human rights reports are being purged of references to prison conditions, political corruption and other abuses.

Advocate [Apr 17] -- Trump HHS announces anonymous tip line, says people can now report affirming care doctors w/o violating HIPPA laws --as usual trying to accomplish through intimidation behaviors compliance with hateful policies it could not otherwise compel. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social
Doctors warn of ‘terrifying’ effects as Trump creates snitch line to report gender-affirming care patients
Under the administration’s latest guidance, reporting a trans patient’s care may no longer violate HIPAA — and that’s exactly the problem, providers say.
