  • Reports of pregnant women experiencing miscarriages and medical neglect in ICE custody highlight severe human rights violations and systemic failures in the treatment of vulnerable immigrant populations.
  • The halt of federal funding due to the ongoing shutdown is disproportionately affecting marginalized communities, as seen with California deploying the National Guard to assist food banks, underscoring the need for equitable resource distribution during crises.
  • The Trump administration's immigration operations, including strikes on alleged drug boats and surges of agents into communities, raise concerns about increased policing of marginalized groups and potential human rights abuses.
