Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Washington) recently introduced a legislative proposal known as Orlin’s Law. This bill aims to prevent U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from detaining or deporting immigrant parents unless they are deemed a threat to public safety.

The proposed law honors the memory of a young Florida boy, Orlin, who tragically lost his life after ICE deported his mother. The legislation seeks to address concerns over family separations and the impact of immigration enforcement on children and communities.
