Students, Faculty and Legal Partners Featured in Minnesota Lawyer

Minnesota Lawyer writer Mike Mosedale recounts the experience of law students, faculty and legal partners of the Center for New Americans who visited Dilley, Texas over winter break to help detainees facing deportation. The legal team from Minnesota were scheduled for pro bono work when their visit coincided with the controversial raids of legal immigrants over New Years. The team was able to divert deportation proceedings for a large proportion of those arrested.
