Ever since one of the members of my church was kidnapped and deported in 2018, immigration law and policies have been at the front of my mind when it comes to freedom in the United States. I have worried publicly and privately for years that what happens with ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), CBP (Customs and Border Protection), USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services), and DHS (Department of Homeland Security) will eventually pose a threat to all of us. Despite everyone who alleged that that was an overreaction, here we are. In the first few months of the Trump administration, we’ve quickly transitioned to a reality where all of our rights are at stake.
