08.13.25 Tell Congress: Block Angola Prison Immigration Detention

Trump plans to house 450 immigrant detainees at Angola prison, which is known as one of "America's bloodiest prisons."

Here are the cruel facts:

  • Angola is known as the "bloodiest prison in the South"

  • Proposed wing is "not suitable for human occupation"

  • Asylum seekers are treated like maximum-security criminals

  • Deliberate intimidation through brutal conditions is routine

This type of detention policy is designed to intimidate immigrant families, and we must stop it.

The problem is clear:

  • Historical violence at notorious facility

  • Unsafe conditions in proposed detention wing

  • Civil cases treated like violent crimes

  • 450 families targeted for cruel punishment

We cannot allow immigration enforcement through deliberate brutality.

Immigration enforcement must be humane—not designed to terrorize.

In solidarity,
