When will ICE detainees get vaccinated? 'I don't know,' state official says

Palm Springs Desert Sun
Murkiness surrounding how the people held in federal immigration detention centers in California will get vaccinated, and who will administer those shots, is frustrating some Democratic legislators and immigrant advocates.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has said the federal government is allocating COVID-19 vaccines for immigrant detainees to state and local health departments. State officials, meanwhile, have not provided any proposals for vaccinating this population.
“It’s clear that public health authorities at the state and local level have at least some role to play, whether it’s providing the vaccine or simply being involved in the coordination and distribution of the vaccine,” said Hamid Yazdan Panah, advocacy director for Immigrant Defense Advocates. “At the very least, public health officials have a role to play in terms of providing inf ....

Racial and Immigrant Justice Groups Sue Government for Records of COVID-19 Data Surveillance


San Francisco - The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is representing four racial and immigrant justice groups Just Futures Law, MediaJustice, Mijente Support Committee, and the Immigrant Defense Project suing the U.S. Departments of Homeland Security and Health and Human Services under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) for withholding critical records about the collection and sharing of data during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The four groups all filed FOIA requests for information about COVID-related surveillance and data analysis last year. In particular, the groups are worried about HHS Protect, a vast secretive data platform designed by controversial data software company Palantir. Palantir has a long history of building surveillance systems for the Department of Homeland Security that facilitate criminal prosecutions, family separation, and raids that lead to detention and deportation. In July of last year, the government required all hospitals to report COVID-19 infec ....
