Democrats Urge Trump Administration To Stop ICE Arrests Of Pregnant Women

Senators Murray and Blumenthal, joined by 27 Senators, are demanding answers from DHS about reports of pregnant women being mistreated in ICE custody.

As WRC’s Zain Lakhani told HuffPost: “ICE continues to ignore protections for pregnant, postpartum, and lactating women—putting their health and lives at risk. These harms are occurring in a black box.”

That’s why WRC created the Pregnancy Detention Tracker—to shine a light on dangerous conditions and fight for safety, dignity, and humanity.
