Immigrants’ Rights Organizations File Federal Lawsuit Against U.S. Immigration Agencies Seeking Documents on Humanitarian Parole
Humanitarian Parole Is Life-Saving For Many But Shrouded In Mystery
Today, the Florence Immigrant & Refugee Rights Project (“FIRRP”) and Lawyers for Civil Rights (“LCR”) filed a federal lawsuit against the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”) for their failure to produce records regarding how humanitarian parole requests are handled. The lawsuit is filed under the Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”) based on a public records request that FIRRP and LCR submitted more than one year ago. The case was filed in the federal court in Boston.
