 Counsel
 
 
 
 Justice Action Center (JAC) is a start-up social justice organization that combines the power of storytelling with impact litigation to bring justice to immigrant communities. JAC&rsquo;s work includes Supreme Court campaigns, including the successful campaign to defend the Biden administration&rsquo;s decision to end the cruel Remain in Mexico policy; authorship of a Litigation Tracker website and newsletter to keep abreast of anti-immigrant lawsuits filed by states; and active impact litigation throughout the country on behalf of immigrant communities. 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. .
