ICE unlawfully grabbed our client Rümeysa Öztürk off the street and sent her to a for-profit detention center in Louisiana — all for an op-ed she co-authored in her student paper.
What happened to Rümeysa is part of a broader crackdown on the First Amendment and immigrants' rights.

While many Republicans running for Congress in swing districts are going to try to distance themselves from Trump, Miller, Kash, Hegseth, RFK Jr, et al, they enabled ALL of it. They all supported Mike Johnson for Speaker, who abdicated all oversight and congressional authority.

Normally I’d say not to let Trump make something about him. He delights in all attention, even negative. Don’t give him the satisfaction.
But today I want you to take that ghoul to task because this is obscene and no one should stand for it.
