- Deportation hearing for Salah Sarsour focuses on Israeli detention
Salah Sarsour, president of Milwaukee’s Islamic Society, faces a deportation hearing after being detained by ICE for months. A federal judge previously ruled his arrest was First Amendment retaliation for his Palestinian advocacy and criticism of Israel. Sarsour, a lawful permanent resident since 1998 and naturalized citizen under George W. Bush, was released in June following the ruling.
