Deportation practices in the US undermine the communication and disability rights of asylum seekers with disabilities, especially the deaf. These practices cause serious health consequences and put them at risk of harm. People with disabilities have the right to nondiscrimination and effective communication in federally funded programs under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. This law requires program accessibility, individualized accommodations, and effective communication for people with disabilities. The law applies regardless of immigration status. These requirements must be met as part of DHS activities.
