Fights Deportation: Ragbir and Detention

fights deportation: Ravi Ragbir RAH'-vee RAHG'-beer was in the audience Tuesday night as Trump called on Congress to set politics aside and overhaul the nation's immigration system, according to Metro News. Ragbir said afterward that it was difficult to see the reaction from people in the room who totally bought into what he was saying. An immigrant activist who was freed from detention as he fights deportation has attended President Donald Trump's State of the Union address. A judge in New York ordered Ragbir released from detention on Monday. Ragbir was invited to the speech as a guest of U.S. Rep. The activist says immigration officials are engaging in psychological warfare by targeting him and other activists for detention and deportation.U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement refutes that contention.
