BREAKING: Glendale will no longer criminalize panhandling — a win for free speech and the rights of people experiencing poverty. But the reversal only came after we sued the city and forced the issue. It should never be a crime to ask for help.

An empty Pima County prison is being eyed as a possible ICE detention center. Given ICE’s troubling track record of human rights abuses in detention, we’re calling for transparency, oversight and a halt to expanding a harmful system.

BREAKING: We've sued to end enforcement of Glendale's panhandling bans, alleging that the ordinances violate the First Amendment.
Criminalizing a person asking for help isn’t only unconstitutional, it’s wrong.

When the Pima County Sheriff’s Dept. was caught violating their own policy on tracking requests for assistance from ICE or Border Patrol, they got rid of it rather than taking accountability. This raises concerns for the safety of immigrant communities.

The bill is scheduled for a final vote in the U.S. House TOMORROW. Almost 2 million Arizonans rely on Medicaid for essential healthcare and services through AHCCCS. There’s nothing “beautiful” about this bill.
Arizona members of Congress must vote NO.

“Having an action plan and knowing your rights during an immigration enforcement operation are the most effective preparations for a worksite raid by ICE.”
Our immigrants’ rights policy strategist, Noah Schramm, explains how to prepare.

If you or someone you know has an upcoming immigration hearing, you may have serious concerns regarding recent reports about cases getting dismissed and ICE conducting arrests shortly after. Weighing the risk is a serious decision, but you have rights.
