UW Tech Detained by ICE | Washington Huskies Basketball News

A UW Medical Center patient care technician was abruptly detained by ICE outside a Seattle gym, vanished into a web of federal facilities across the western U.S., leaving family and coworkers in the dark. While the university stays silent, his employer confirms he’s not being penalized — signaling they’re aware but withholding comment. Union allies are rallying, calling him a vital community member with a valid work permit and volunteer ties to Seattle’s homeless population — raising questions about why he’s targeted. They’re fighting to get him legal counsel, demand a bail hearing, and push the university to publicly condemn ICE’s campus presence — especially after a similar case involving another UW Medicine worker. This incident underscores growing fears over immigration enforcement encroaching on academic workplaces and calls for urgent institutional action.
