After a campaign to free Maura, a 41-year-old transgender woman from Nicaragua, generatedover 14,000 emails to the ICE San Diego Field Office, the Department of Homeland Security agency has finally released Maura to freedom after detaining her for over 800 days in a facility accused of medical neglect and failing to prevent COVID-19 outbreaks.

While we celebrate Maura’s freedom and resilience, the work is not done until all trans people are released from ICE custody
