Our hearts break for the family of Joan Sebastian Guerrero. He should still be alive to tuck his 3-year-old daughter in bed at night.

Those who live in fear of never seeing their children or parents again.
Those who are afraid their dad will be taken by ICE.�
Kids who have lost parents.
Moms and Dads who are separated from their families because of cruel immigration policies.

You are more than your immigration status.

The Supreme Court just dealt a major blow to the right to seek asylum.

In our case, Mullin v. Al Otro Lado, the Court ruled that the Trump administration can turn away asylum seekers at the border—putting countless lives at even greater risk.

The Supreme Court has ruled that asylum seekers can now be turned away at the border, which could lead to them taking dangerous routes and going through inhospitable areas.

ICE detention is family separation. The conditions inside are cruel, dehumanizing and dangerous. And the family members left behind fear for the health and safety of their loved ones. 50 people have died in ICE custody under the current Trump administration.

The Trump administration says people should do immigration “the right way.”

But when we defended asylum seekers before the Supreme Court, the government’s arguments told a very different story.

Yesterday was a sad day for those of us who care about immigrants and asylum seekers. In our case, Mullin v. Al Otro Lado, the Supreme Court ruled the government can physically block people from seeking asylum at official border crossings, turning them back to danger. In response to the 6-3 vote, Justice Sonia Sotomayor penned a biting 35-page dissent – notably almost twice as long as the Alito majority opinion. Not only was it twice as long, but Justice Sotomayor read her blistering dissent from the bench; a practice typically reserved for when justices *strongly* disagree with the majority opinion.

We are grateful for her ability to see this verdict for what it is: a death sentence.

SCOTUS Ruled. We Won’t Stop Fighting.

Our Border Rights Project Director, Nicole Elizabeth Ramos, shares her reaction after the Supreme Court’s ruling in our case Mullin v. Al Otro Lado.

“Our work does not end here with this decision. We are going to continue fighting, we are going to continue documenting, we are going to continue suing the US government to protect the right to seek asylum because justice doesn’t move on it’s own, we move it together.”
