The @CityofSanDiego continues to grow our solutions for the unsheltered. The Rose Canyon Safe Parking Lot is the fourth site of its kind in partnership with @JFSSD. This initiative has helped thousands get off the streets and into housing.

The only way to ensure migrants receive adequate reproductive care is to release them. Take action with us, @sdicACLU, @ACLUTx, @JFSSD, @UCLA_CILP, and over 175 advocacy organizations, medical professionals, and individuals, and demand CBP make a change. action.aclu.org/send-message…

People in CBP custody have been denied medical care, and kept in freezing and degrading conditions. These facilities aren’t safe. Time and time again, Customs and Border Protection has put countless pregnant, postpartum, and nursing people’s health in danger.

Today, we and our partners sent a letter demanding that Customs and Border Protection finally take action to uphold the reproductive rights and health of migrants. We’ve been sounding the alarm for years — yet CBP keeps looking the other way.

CBP’s egregious treatment of pregnant and postpartum people and their infant children must stop❗️ ImmDef joined @ACLU @JFSSD & @UCLA_CILP in demanding that @CBP significantly limit its detention of pregnant/nursing/postpartum people, as well as infants. aclu.org/letter/letter-commi…
