About

NP's Immigration Committee actively supports the HOME Act A.B 1306, which would prevent immigrant Californians who earn release from state prison from being doubly punished by being transferred to ICE detention and deportation.

We also build ties and solidarity with our friends from API Rise (Reentry & Inclusion Through Support & Empowerment) and are supporting efforts to secure a pardon from Gov. Newsom for some of their members so they can continue to pursue their dreams and serve their communities without fear of deportation.

We are part of the Shut Down Adelanto Coalition based in the IE, which lobbies and rallies for the closure of Adelanto Detention Center, which has a deplorable record of widespread use of toxic chemicals, rotten food, poor health care and even physical and sexual abuse.

We are working to help free Jackie and Ligaya, two remaining women at Adelanto, who have been in immigrant detention longer than their original, completed sentences. Committee members are also receiving training to participate in visitations with migrants and asylum seekers recently bussed from the border to Adelanto.
