We know of 3 US citizen children deported yesterday, along with their moms who had been living in the US for years. One of the moms was pregnant. One of the kids has a rare form of cancer. One of the kids is just 2 years old. All had caregivers in the US to stay with.
#BREAKING: Yesterday morning, the NOLA ICE Field Office deported at least two families, including two mothers and their minor children – three of whom are U.S. citizen children aged 2, 4, and 7. One of the mothers is currently pregnant.

Despite repeated outreach from @nipnlg.bsky.social attorneys ICE refused to let the parents speak to each other or mom speak to her attorney. We filed a late-night habeas petition ICE was fully aware of, but they deported them anyway.
Donald Trump isn’t just illegally removing U.S. citizens from the country without due process.
He’s illegally removing U.S. citizens who are literal children undergoing care for cancer.

SO proud of the outcome in this case we @nipnlg.bsky.social litigated on behalf of the most wonderful human beings and the amazing outcome we were able to achieve.
NEW: In a SCATHING decision, Judge Briones of the Western District of Texas absolutely SAVAGED the government over this case, tearing to shreds ICE’s hearsay “evidence” that this husband and wife were in Tren de Aragua as “completely and wholly unsubstantiated” — and ordered their immediate release!
