Dear John,
Access to counsel is not guaranteed for people in immigration detention. In fact, around 80% of people in detention don’t have a lawyer.
Through the Council’s Immigration Justice Campaign, we empower immigrants to pursue their legal rights by mobilizing volunteer attorneys to work alongside people in detention. Can you donate to support our work in 2023? [[link removed]]

Here are a few things we celebrated this year:
*
After
three
years
of
effort,
a
man
working
with
an
Immigration
Justice
Campaign
volunteer
finally
won
paperwork
to
bring
his
family
to
the
United
States
as
asylum
seekers.
*
A
man’s
scheduled
day
of
deportation
became
the
day
he
won
release
to
stay
with
his
brother
in
the
United
States.
*
A
volunteer
discovered
that
ICE
was
illegally
holding
a
U.S.
citizen
in
immigration
detention,
and
the
person
was
released.
*
Two
families
who
had
been
pursuing
their
immigration
cases
for
more
than
20
years
finally
won
asylum.
*
A
volunteer
heard
at
the
last
minute
that
his
client
was
about
to
be
deported,
so
he
scrambled
to
submit
a
stay
motion
at
2
a.m.
on
a
Sunday.
The
motion
was
granted
just
in
time,
and
the
man
was
taken
off
the
plane
that
had
been
set
to
fly
him
out
of
the
country.
He
later
won
asylum.
Every person pursuing an immigration case deserves due process and access to counsel. If you can, please donate to support our work. [[link removed]]
