NEW: We sent a letter to the Trump administration demanding access to immigrants detained at Guantánamo Bay and answers about plans to expand immigration detention there.
The government cannot use Guantánamo as a legal black hole to violate immigrants' rights.

USAID staff are seeking an injunction re: a "series of unconstitutional and illegal actions" taken by Trump that have "systematically dismantled" USAID.
