</div> <p>ICE agents left a group of more than 50 women and children asylum seekers stranded at a bus station in San Antonio, Texas on Friday. According to the <a href="https://therivardreport.com/stranded-immigrants-find-shelter-from-hurricane-harvey/" target="_blank">Rivard Report</a>, the immigrants were supposed to be able to take buses from San Antonio to meet up with family members or sponsors elsewhere in the U.S., but by the the time ICE dropped them off, the station had closed and bus service was suspended due to the imminent arrival of Hurricane Harvey.</p>
<p>From Rivard Report:</p>
<blockquote><p>[Rep. Lloyd] Doggett told the Rivard Report that Immigration and Customs Enforcement assured him on Friday morning that everyone would be dropped off at the station in time to make connections before the storm hit. But by the time the women and children arrived, it was too late for them to catch a bus to any destination.</p>
<p>“This is all really unacceptable,” Doggett said. “We need greatly improved communication and more attention to genuine humanitarian concerns.”</p></blockquote>
<p>A local church was asked for assistance and now 150 people, including the immigrants abandoned by ICE and a considerable number of homeless people, are being sheltered there until bus service resumes. San Antonio&#8217;s emergency operation center provided blankets and the San Antonio Food bank sent over meals and water. For now, everyone seems happy they at least have a place to stay.</p>
<p>The immigrants, who all passed a &#8220;credible fear&#8221; interviews, had recently been released from family detention centers. </p>
<p>&#8220;As far as ICE was concerned, these people were going to sit and starve in the bus station for days,&#8221; Jonathan Ryan, executive director of RAICES &#8212; an organization that provides legal assistance for immigrants &#8212; said. &#8220;They executed their plan and not a thought was given about these people.&#8221;</p>
