Federal judge orders ICE not to deport immigration advocate Jeanette Vizguerra

Context: U.S. District Judge Nina Wang sided with Vizguerra and said the defendants, including Johnny Choate, the warden of the ICE detention center in Aurora, could not deport her.

• ICE Denver field office interim director Ernesto Santacruz, U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi are also named in the order.

The big picture: Vizguerra's high-profile arrest on Monday alarmed advocates and immigrants as she joined a growing list of nonviolent figures targeted by Trump's administration.

• Vizguerra is a Mexican citizen who entered the U.S. without authorization in 1997. She lived in legal limbo for decades, and was on break from her job at a Target store when she was arrested by ICE this week.

Between the lines: Vizguerra's arrest galvanized Democrats and leftists in metro Denver, who called for her immediate release.

What we're watching: A hearing in her case is set for March 28.
