Representative Rick Larsen advocates for a Portland family's legal counsel access, following a judge's temporary restraining order.
Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Representative Rick Larsen announced that a federal judge has issued an emergency temporary restraining order preventing the removal of the Merlos family, who have been detained in Ferndale, Washington, without access to legal counsel for two weeks. The family includes four U.S. citizen children from Portland, Oregon.
The judge's order follows a lawsuit filed by the family’s attorney, Jill Nedved, supported by the ACLU and the National Immigration Law Center, demanding access to counsel. Larsen and other lawmakers previously urged the Department of Homeland Security to ensure the family could consult with their attorney.
In a statement, Larsen expressed concern over the family's detention, noting, "It is unconscionable that Ms. Merlos and her citizen children have not received access to legal counsel." He affirmed his commitment to advocating for the family’s rights and presence in the Pacific Northwest.
