Congressman calls for release of California nurse detained by ICE

Rep. Josh Harder is calling for the release of Ann Lawani, a nurse and longtime Lodi resident detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Lawani was arrested in Lodi in September and is being held in Louisiana, about 1,700 miles from home. The Department of Homeland Security says she entered the United States legally from Nigeria in 2007 but overstayed her temporary admission. Harder has asked for her supervised release and return to California while her case proceeds.
