This report exposes the ways in which the United States is “deporting the evidence,” by arresting, detaining, and removing individuals engaged in defending themselves and their communities against serious violations of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). We document the stories of “the Southern 32,” a campaign of migrant workers in the southern region of the United States who are fighting government efforts to deport them in retaliation for the work they are doing to defend human rights.
