An immigration judge has ruled that Salah Sarsour, the president of Wisconsin’s largest mosque, can be deported under a law from the Cold War era. This law has been used by the Trump administration against foreign nationals who have publicly advocated for Palestinian rights. Sarsour, a US permanent resident for nearly 30 years, was detained by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in March. He was released after a federal judge determined that his detention was likely in retaliation for his advocacy, which the judge stated would make the detention unlawful.
