## Resource

Immigration attorneys and advocates are sounding the alarm outside Boston’s immigration court, decrying a broken system where inexperienced judges—many with military backgrounds—are rushing through cases in “hearings on steroids,” often via distant video calls. With over 149,000 pending cases in Massachusetts alone, the push for speed is sacrificing due process, leading to wrongful deportations—even for asylum seekers with strong claims. One harrowing example: a survivor of sexual assault denied proper interpretation during her hearing. While officials insist they’re upholding law and timeliness, legal professionals warn this chaotic setup risks irreversible harm to vulnerable immigrants seeking refuge.
