Carmen Mejia was exonerated after spending 20 years in prison for a crime she did not commit.

Now, ICE may pick her up because she lost her immigration status due to that wrongful conviction.

Carmen should not spend one more day wrongfully detained.

🚨Legal loopholes turn cases that would otherwise be prosecuted as statutory rape into legally sanctioned marriages
🚨Every state must close all legal loopholes that enable child marriage.

'If states were to be recognized as having a right to "preventive war," according to their own criteria and without a supranational legal framework, the whole world would risk being set ablaze.
