The Trump administration's hostility towards immigrants continues. In May, the ACLU of PA and cooperating counsel filed in federal court for the release of Ivan Nuñez Martinez, a gay married man who has lived a quiet life in the United States for 17 years. Miguel Andrade of Juntos and Golnaz Fakhimi of ACLU-PA discuss the community and legal response to his detention and the intersectionality between immigrants rights and LGBTQ equality. More information is available at aclupa.org/NunezMartinez.
Juntos will co-host deportation defense trainings in Harrisburg on June 23 and in Philadelphia on July 7. Information is available at these links:
