My husband is in a ICE facility in Nevada and he has a severe seizure disorder
Let me be clear, if he has even ONE seizure while in the facility I am demanding his release immediately. Everyone needs to start doing this if your loved ones are ill and kidnapped by ICE.
This is illegal.

Today I received FOUR death notifications for people in ICE custody. That's 30 deaths since Trump took office. It's appalling & unacceptable.
ICE is required—by law—to ensure detainees are safe & their basic needs are met. It's clear this isn't the case. We NEED answers.

I remember how much effort Fidaa put in last year to make sure Yamen’s 10th birthday was honored properly for the milestone it is.

I never had an issue with the existence of The First Order. Just because the Empire was defeated doesn't mean evil won't rise again. Maz lays it out perfectly "Through the ages I've seen evil take many forms. The Sith, the Empire, today it's the First Order." #TheForceAwakens10

Per your firm’s website: “Many individuals who identify as transgender, non-binary, or gender-fluid utilize chest binding as a way to help manage their own dysphoria”
Our review also revealed statements that you manufacture these devices within the meaning of section 510 of the Act (21 U.S.C. § 360) (e.g., “We pay obsessive attention to every design aspect, leaving no detail overlooked so that our community can live and experience a life unbound.”). Under section 510 of the Act (21 U.S.C. § 360), manufacturers of medical devices are required to annually register with the FDA. In September 2007, section 510 of the Act was amended by the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007 (Pub. L. 110-85) to require domestic and foreign device establishments to submit their annual establishment registration and device listing information to FDA by electronic means [section 510(p) of the Act (21 U.S.C. § 360(p))] during the period beginning October 1st and ending December 31st of each year.
