Our impact cases include litigation defending humanitarian parole processes and the rights of individuals now here in the United States on humanitarian parole; a lawsuit challenging the administration&rsquo;s attempt to eliminate funding for legal representation for unaccompanied children; and a lawsuit challenging the Trump administration&rsquo;s policy allowing immigration enforcement in and around &ldquo;sensitive locations,&rdquo; like schools and houses of worship. .
