In Our September 2025 Edition:

Why did the federal government end a program that returned a 100% immigration court appearance rate without detention or surveillance and was 90% cheaper than detention? Why did it instead give billions of taxpayer dollars to private prison executives for immigration detention, who promptly raised executive compensation and bonuses?

New year, new us. Same mission.

Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights is rebranding to honor the legacy of our founder and hero, Mrs. Ethel Skakel Kennedy. From now on, we will proudly be known as the Robert & Ethel Kennedy Human Rights Center

While our name is changing, our mission and work remain the same. We will continue to fight injustice, advance human rights, and hold governments accountable around the world in 2026 and beyond.
