Show Notes

Two immigrant truck drivers, Syed Abbas and Jagdish Singh, are suing the federal government after being detained by ICE during routine traffic stops. Despite having work authorization and pending asylum applications, they were jailed due to Operation ICE Wall, a joint effort between state patrol and ICE to check papers and detain individuals who skip weigh stations. A third driver, Suraj Vasal, faced a similar situation on the same day. The lawsuits allege due process violations, as no notice or hearing was provided before their detention.
