President Joe Biden’s administration has deported hundreds of people despite his campaign pledge to halt most deportations at the beginning of his term.

Since the creation of ICE, there have been over 177 reported deaths at immigrant detention centers.

At these detention centers, immigrants are denied medical care & forced into slave labor in order to afford food.

People must understand the depth of what’s happening here: the President of the United States has ordered a halt to deportations. ICE, a federal agency, is refusing to comply.

There’s no reforming this rogue dept. It’s time for a new, just vision.

ICE and CBP carried out unimaginable cruelty at Trump’s direction. Now they’re defying President Biden’s order to halt deportations—even though they have discretion to not schedule them.

President Biden must get these agencies under control immediately. https://t.co/F9JVw0ykA5

🚨ICE just deported a survivor of the El Paso Walmart shooting.

Rosa — an El Pasoan and survivor and material witness of the deadliest terrorist attack against Latinos — was deported yesterday.

The U.S. Has Deported More Than 30,000 Guatemalans This Year Alone

“Sometimes they have been sent back five, eight or even nine times,” said Rafael Amado, Communications Director at the Guatemalan Ministry of Foreign Affairs. “The government has several initiatives to encourage them to stay, but it’s not enough.”

After a long trip with their ankles and hands tied down, and an unspecified amount time spent in detention before that, the returnees must face the very thing they left: A country where 54 percent of the population lives in poverty, where the rate of young children with chronic malnutrition is the fourth highest in the world, and where drug cartels and gangs rule the streets.

Rush to Deport Could Trample Asylum Claims – The Boston Globe

HARLINGEN, Texas — The first time her aunt in Mexico took her out at night, the young teenager was told they were headed to a party. It was no party. “It was trafficking people, drug dealers,” she recalled. “I just saw a lot of guys. They had guns. I was in shock. I was shaking. The more I was saying no, the more they treated me badly.”

Obama Sent ICE to Their Doorsteps So They Are Coming To His

“This week immigrant and LGBT civil rights leaders from the California Immigrant Youth Justice Alliance (CIYJA) sat down in the Democratic congressional offices of Rep. Xavier Becerra and Rep. Loretta Sanchez, demanding their leadership to stop the deportations. The action was in solidarity with the hunger-strike at the White House to call on the President to stop deportations, which started Tuesday.”

San Diego Border Community Rallies to Support Jose Gutierrez

Community Village‘s insight:

“Shena Gutierrez, the wife of Jose, released this statement on behalf of their family:

“Three years ago, our lives completely changed when Jose was handcuffed and taken from us to be deported to Mexico, a country he had not seen in over 3 decades. We did not think things could get any worse until March 30, 2011, when Jose was brutally beaten into a coma by Border Patrol agents. For 3 years we have been fighting for justice. The release of four names out of the eleven agents involved in the beating of my husband is not good enough! We want ALL names released! We want justice, accountability and transparency!”

Since the incident occurred three years ago, Shena Gutierrez has become an outspoken advocate in defense of her husband and other border families who have been affected by border brutality and abuse of power. On a few occasions, she has traveled to Washington D.C. to speak to members of Congress who have been made aware of the lack of accountability and oversight within the nation’s largest law enforcement agency.

Last June, she joined with the families of Anastasio Hernandez Rojas and Valeria Munique Tachiquin in a video asking their Senator to equip Border Patrol with body worn-cameras, which CBP has committed to, but has not yet implemented. Last week, the request was once again raised, this time to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson.
