Coalition Urges DHS To Protect the Right to Abortion After Dobbs
Published
The American Immigration Council joined a letter signed by 156 organizations calling on the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to take concrete steps to protect the right to abortion after the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Dobbs. The letter calls on DHS to take steps to protect the right to an abortion for individuals held in DHS custody, but also to instruct Border Patrol not to prevent undocumented individuals from travelling through a checkpoint if they are seeking medical treatment for reproductive health care such as an abortion.
Help us fight for immigration justice!
The research is clear – immigrants are more likely to win their cases with a lawyer by their side. But very few can get attorneys.
Introducing the Immigration Justice Campaign Access Fund.
Your support sends attorneys, provides interpreters, and delivers justice.
Immigration Justice Campaign is an initiative of American Immigration Council and American Immigration Lawyers Association. The mission is to increase free legal services for immigrants navigating our complicated immigration system and leverage the voices and experiences of those most directly impacted by our country’s immigration policies to inform legal and advocacy strategies. We bring together a broad network of volunteers who provide legal assistance and advocate for due process for immigrants with a humane approach that includes universal legal representation and other community-based support for individuals during their immigration cases.
