Advocacy group condemns Laken Riley Act as due process rollback

Jan 29, 2025

Freedom for Immigrants issued a statement condemning the Laken Riley Act, signed into law by President Trump, which mandates detention of immigrants for minor criminal charges without bail or due process. The organization's executive director criticized the law alongside recent executive orders expanding immigration detention, expedited removal, and criminalization of migration. The group warned the policies would increase racial profiling and family separation.
