LA Times runs piece from refugee held in ICE detention

We don't get many opportunities to hear firsthand from folks inside the ICE camps.

Families in Tennessee with critically ill or severely disabled children who are undocumented are being asked to make a difficult choice: leave the state program that pays for lifesaving medication and treatment or stay and have their child reported to immigration authorities.

The program, Children’s Special Services, funds low-income families who have exhausted all other options to cover costs for their sick children — helping pay for ventilators, wheelchairs or feeding tubes, for example, or for expensive drugs and emergency treatments. Tennessee lawmakers passed a bill this spring that requires state and local agencies to verify whether anyone receiving a public benefit is in the country legally. If not, the government must report them to the Centralized Immigration Enforcement Division, a state agency created in 2025 that oversees collaboration with federal immigration authorities. The legislation was one of several immigration bills crafted and passed in Tennessee with support from the White House with the aim of discouraging undocumented immigrants from living there.
