Agatha Joseph’s daughter was only seventeen when she was placed in immigrant detention. She spent three years fighting to prove her innocence in seven detention centers—all from smoking a joint with friends as a teenager.
In America, unfair immigration laws are denying basic due process to immigrants that live in the United States, which affect all immigrants: legal permanent residents, asylum seekers, students and undocumented people.
Unfair immigration laws:
• Deny a fair day in court and deport people without a hearing
• Tie judges’ hands and prevent them from considering the circumstances of each individual case
• Impose unjust punishment
• Hold immigrants in detention indefinitely in inhumane conditions
