A Critical Examination of Civil Rights Violations and Criminal Collusion by Omaha’s Immigrant Support Network
Unmasking Discrimination in 2025! Omaha’s Civil Rights Crisis Unveiled!
On June 11, 2025, a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid at Glenn Valley Foods in Omaha, Nebraska, detaining approximately 80 undocumented immigrants, labeled by critics as illegal aliens, exposed a deeply collusive network of city officials, nonprofit organizations, consular offices, and government agencies. The subsequent press conference, led by Mayor John Ewing Jr., intended to clarify municipal roles but instead unveiled a system allegedly engaged in federal crimes, including harboring, fraud, conspiracy, and obstruction of justice, while diverting public and private resources from American citizens. This network, involving figures like Police Chief Todd Schmaderer, Douglas County Commissioner Roger Garcia, City Councilmember Danny Begley, Human Rights and Relations Department Director Cailin Daly Dejillas, and Coordinator Jennifer Rodriguez, alongside organizations such as the Center for Immigrant and Refugee Advancement (CIRA), Nebraska Immigration Legal Assistance Hotline (NILAH), Heartland Workers Center (HWC), and Nebraska Immigration Services (NIS), is accused of transforming Omaha’s demographics, voting patterns, and economic stability. Beyond these crimes, this article critically examines the civil rights violations perpetrated by these entities, particularly discriminatory practices against U.S. citizens, especially white citizens, through racially profiled services favoring immigrants. It explores how these groups violate anti-discrimination laws, the criminal implications of such practices, and the scamming of public systems by both undocumented immigrants and their facilitators, emphasizing the need for equal application of legal scrutiny. Supplemental sections provide detailed processes, flow charts, and legal resources for further investigation.
Civil Rights Violations and Discriminatory Practices
The network’s focus on providing services exclusively or disproportionately to undocumented immigrants, refugees, or specific ethnic groups constitutes potential violations of U.S. civil rights laws, particularly Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination based on race, color, or national origin in programs receiving federal funds. By prioritizing immigrants—often from Latino, African, or Asian backgrounds—over U.S. citizens, especially white citizens, organizations like CIRA, HWC, NIS, Omaha Center for Refugee & Immigrant Services Incorporated (OCRISI), Refugee Empowerment Center (REC), Catholic Charities, Lutheran Family Services, OneWorld Community Health Centers, and the East African Development Association of Nebraska engage in practices that critics argue amount to racial profiling and discriminatory service provision. These entities, funded by public resources, offer legal aid, housing, employment, healthcare, and educational services tailored to immigrants, sidelining citizens who face similar socioeconomic challenges.
For instance, CIRA’s $5 million budget, drawn from federal grants and foundations like the Omaha Community Foundation, supports legal representation and resettlement services primarily for immigrants, with programs like the Prairielands Freedom Fund explicitly aiding undocumented detainees. OneWorld’s $20 million budget, funded by federal grants and patient fees, provides healthcare with a focus on Latino immigrants, who constitute 65% of its patients. HWC’s $1.5 million budget funds civic engagement programs targeting immigrant communities, potentially enabling undocumented individuals to influence local voting. These services, critics argue, exclude white citizens or other U.S. citizens, violating the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, which mandates equal treatment under the law. The Nebraska Commission on Latino-Americans, with a $500,000 state-funded budget, explicitly advocates for Latino immigrants, including undocumented individuals, further evidencing racial profiling in service allocation.
City officials, including Ewing, Garcia, Begley, Dejillas, and Rodriguez, exacerbate these violations. Ewing, overseeing a $1.35 billion city budget with a $531.1 million general fund, promotes these services, as seen in the press conference, directing resources to the Human Rights and Relations Department’s $1.2 million budget, which Rodriguez and Dejillas use to coordinate immigrant-focused outreach. Garcia, managing a $612.7 million county budget, aligns with the Nebraska Commission on Latino-Americans, prioritizing Latino immigrants over other residents. Begley’s support for HWC’s programs further tilts city resources toward immigrants. These actions, funded by taxpayer dollars, discriminate against citizens by favoring one group, violating anti-discrimination laws like Nebraska’s Fair Employment Practice Act, which prohibits bias in employment and public services based on race or national origin.
Consular offices from Mexico, El Salvador, and Guatemala, with budgets of $2 million, $1.5 million, and $1.8 million respectively, provide identification documents and services exclusively to their nationals, indirectly enabling undocumented immigrants to access U.S. resources. This selective service provision, critics argue, constitutes racial profiling, as it prioritizes specific ethnic groups over citizens, potentially violating federal anti-discrimination laws when integrated with U.S.-funded nonprofits like CIRA and OneWorld.
Criminal Implications of Discriminatory Practices
These discriminatory practices carry criminal implications under federal and state laws. Title VI violations, when intentional, can lead to civil penalties and loss of federal funding, but knowing discrimination in federally funded programs may also trigger criminal charges under 18 U.S.C. § 242, which prohibits deprivation of rights under color of law, carrying up to one year in prison or seven years if bodily injury occurs. Directors like Erik Omar of CIRA, Lina Traslaviña Stover of HWC, Mark Sorenson of NIS, Marilyn Sims of REC, Nizar Rasho of Lutheran Family Services, and Andrea Skolkin of OneWorld, along with officials like Ewing, Garcia, Dejillas, and Rodriguez, are potentially liable for orchestrating these discriminatory programs. Entire organizations, including CIRA, HWC, and OneWorld, face liability if their policies systematically exclude citizens based on race or national origin.
The network’s funding practices amplify these violations. Federal grants from the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Refugee Resettlement, and Department of Justice, totaling billions, are channeled to CIRA ($5 million), OCRISI ($2 million), REC ($1.5 million), Catholic Charities ($3 million), Lutheran Family Services ($4 million), and OneWorld ($20 million). These funds, intended for broad community benefit, are suspected of being misallocated to undocumented immigrants, violating 18 U.S.C. § 666, which carries up to seven years for misusing over $5,000 in federal funds. Wire fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1343, with penalties up to 20 years, is suspected when funds are transferred across state lines to support discriminatory programs, as seen with Omaha Community Foundation and Sherwood Foundation grants. Tax evasion under 26 U.S.C. § 7201, with penalties of seven years and $250,000 fines, may occur if nonprofits misreport grant usage to the Internal Revenue Service, claiming tax-exempt status for activities favoring illegals.
Harboring illegal aliens under 8 U.S.C. § 1324, punishable by up to seven years per alien, is a probable crime for CIRA, HWC, NIS, OCRISI, REC, Catholic Charities, Lutheran Family Services, and OneWorld, as they provide legal aid, housing, and employment support to undocumented immigrants. Conspiracy to defraud the United States under 18 U.S.C. § 371, carrying up to five years, is suspected among officials and nonprofits coordinating to obstruct ICE efforts. Consulates, by issuing documents enabling illegal employment, may violate 8 U.S.C. § 1324a, with fines up to $3,000 per worker, and the Foreign Agents Registration Act under 22 U.S.C. § 611, facing fines and five years for unregistered advocacy. Obstruction of justice under 18 U.S.C. § 1505, with a five-year penalty, is suspected for Schmaderer’s Omaha Police Department and the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office due to limited ICE cooperation.
Scamming the System by Undocumented Immigrants and Facilitators
Undocumented immigrants, including those detained at Glenn Valley Foods, are suspected of scamming public systems by using false documents to access employment, healthcare, and welfare benefits, violating federal laws. Illegal entry and unlawful presence, under 8 U.S.C. § 1325 and § 1227, carry penalties of six months to two years and deportation. False document use and identity theft under 18 U.S.C. § 1546 and § 1028 incur up to seven years each. Many immigrants, critics argue, falsely claim refugee or asylum status, exploiting legal loopholes to access services without qualifying, constituting fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1001, with up to five years imprisonment.
Nonprofits facilitate this by providing services to individuals who may not meet refugee or asylum criteria, potentially violating 18 U.S.C. § 1001 by misrepresenting client eligibility to secure federal grants. CIRA’s Prairielands Freedom Fund, for instance, aids undocumented detainees without verifying status, risking fraud charges. OneWorld’s healthcare services, prioritizing Latinos, may serve non-eligible immigrants, misusing federal funds. These organizations, by failing to segregate funds for legal refugees versus undocumented immigrants, risk tax fraud and misallocation charges, implicating directors like Omar, Stover, and Skolkin.
Discriminatory Funding and Racial Profiling
The network’s funding practices, prioritizing immigrants over citizens, constitute discriminatory allocation. The City of Omaha’s $531.1 million general fund and Douglas County’s $612.7 million budget support contracts with CIRA, HWC, and OCRISI, diverting taxpayer dollars to immigrant-focused programs. Federal grants from agencies like the Department of Health and Human Services and Office of Refugee Resettlement are misused when allocated to undocumented immigrants, violating anti-discrimination laws. Private foundations, including Omaha Community Foundation ($100 million grant-making capacity) and Sherwood Foundation ($200 million), fund nonprofits like CIRA and OneWorld, reinforcing racial profiling by targeting specific ethnic groups, such as Latinos or East Africans, over white or other U.S. citizens.
This selective funding violates Title VI and Nebraska’s anti-discrimination laws, as it excludes citizens from equal access to public resources. Racial profiling is evident in OneWorld’s focus on Latino patients and the East African Development Association’s services for specific immigrant groups, neglecting broader community needs. Such practices, critics argue, are criminal when funded by public dollars, constituting theft under 18 U.S.C. § 641, with up to seven years imprisonment, and fraud when misrepresented to federal agencies.
Dichotomy of Discriminatory Practices
The dichotomy of government and charitable entities engaging in discriminatory practices while evading scrutiny is striking. Unlike businesses or clubs, which face rigorous enforcement under anti-discrimination laws, immigrant-focused organizations like CIRA, HWC, and OneWorld operate with impunity, cloaked in charitable or governmental legitimacy. For example, a private employer discriminating against white employees would face lawsuits under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, yet nonprofits providing employment services exclusively to immigrants escape similar accountability. This double standard, critics argue, stems from political and ideological biases, allowing these groups to violate civil rights laws without investigation.
The Omaha Police Department and Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, by limiting ICE cooperation, indirectly support this discrimination, potentially obstructing justice. Federal immigration courts in Omaha, facing backlogs, delay deportations, enabling nonprofits to prolong undocumented presence, further discriminating against citizens needing resources. The Nebraska Equal Opportunity Commission, collaborating with Dejillas, prioritizes immigrant discrimination cases, sidelining citizen complaints, violating equal protection principles.
Citizen Recourse and Accountability
Omaha citizens can take action to address these violations. Reporting suspected immigration crimes, such as harboring by CIRA or HWC, to ICE’s Tip Line at 866-347-2423 or online at www.ice.gov/webform/ice-tip-form is a critical step. Financial crimes, like wire fraud or tax evasion by nonprofits, can be reported to the FBI’s Omaha Field Office at 402-493-8688 or IRS-CI at 800-829-1040. Citizens can request public records from the Omaha City Clerk at 402-444-5555 to expose fund allocations, filing Freedom of Information Act requests with the Department of Homeland Security at foia@hq.dhs.gov for federal grant details.
When local officials are implicated, citizens can escalate to the DOJ’s Public Integrity Section at 202-514-1412 for official misconduct or the DHS Office of Inspector General at 800-323-8603 for grant misuse. The U.S. Attorney’s Office for Nebraska at 402-661-3700 can investigate local collusion, bypassing the Omaha City Attorney or Douglas County Attorney. Lobbying the Governor and Congressional Delegates pushes for oversight, while engaging local media amplifies public pressure.
To protect communities, citizens can form coalitions to monitor nonprofit activities, file complaints with the Omaha City Council at 402-444-5520, and organize peaceful protests, avoiding incidents like the four arrests at Glenn Valley for assaulting officers. Joining national groups like NumbersUSA strengthens advocacy for immigration enforcement, ensuring equal application of civil rights and anti-discrimination laws to all organizations, regardless of their charitable facade.
Conclusion
The ICE raid at Glenn Valley Foods has exposed a collusive network in Omaha, allegedly committing federal crimes and civil rights violations by prioritizing undocumented immigrants over U.S. citizens, particularly white citizens, through racially profiled services. This network, diverting over $600 million in public funds and $50 million in nonprofit budgets, violates Title VI, the Equal Protection Clause, and Nebraska’s anti-discrimination laws, while engaging in harboring, fraud, and conspiracy. Federal agencies like ICE, FBI, and DOJ, alongside state and local entities, must investigate and prosecute these offenses, with citizens playing a vital role through reporting and advocacy. The lack of opposition among Nebraskans underscores the urgency for action to restore equity and justice. Supplemental sections available at the Nebraska Journal Herald provide detailed processes, flow charts, and legal resources for further engagement.
Below is an expanded and detailed list of civil rights violations stemming from the described scenario, focusing solely on the violations themselves without reference to specific individuals or entities. The list includes additional violations derived from the provided context, relevant legal frameworks, and their implications, presented concisely in bullet points for clarity.
Civil Rights Violations
Discrimination Based on Race, Color, or National Origin in Federally Funded Programs (Title VI, Civil Rights Act of 1964)
Programs receiving federal funds prioritized services (e.g., legal aid, housing, healthcare, employment) for undocumented immigrants, refugees, or specific ethnic groups (e.g., Latino, African, Asian), excluding or disproportionately sidelining U.S. citizens, particularly white citizens, from equal access.
This violates Title VI’s prohibition on intentional discrimination in federally funded activities, which requires equitable service distribution regardless of race or national origin.
Violation of the Equal Protection Clause (Fourteenth Amendment, U.S. Constitution)
Public resources and services were allocated preferentially to undocumented immigrants and specific ethnic groups, denying equal treatment under the law to U.S. citizens, especially white citizens, who faced socioeconomic challenges but were excluded from similar aid.
The selective provision of taxpayer-funded services based on immigration status or ethnicity constitutes unequal protection, breaching constitutional guarantees.
Racial Profiling in Service Provision
Services such as healthcare, legal representation, and civic engagement programs were tailored to specific racial or ethnic groups (e.g., Latinos, East Africans), with eligibility or outreach explicitly or implicitly excluding other racial groups, particularly white citizens.
This practice violates anti-discrimination principles by targeting benefits based on race or ethnicity, creating a racially profiled service delivery system.
Discriminatory Allocation of Public Resources
Public funds, including city and county budgets, were diverted to programs exclusively or disproportionately benefiting undocumented immigrants and specific ethnic groups, reducing resources available for U.S. citizens of other racial backgrounds.
This misallocation violates the principle of equitable resource distribution, discriminating against citizens who are equally entitled to public benefits.
Exclusion of U.S. Citizens from Services Based on Race or National Origin
Programs offering legal aid, housing, employment, healthcare, and education explicitly prioritized undocumented immigrants or non-citizens, systematically excluding U.S. citizens, particularly white citizens, from accessing these services despite similar needs.
Such exclusionary practices violate federal and state anti-discrimination laws, which mandate equal access to public services.
Violation of Nebraska’s Fair Employment Practice Act (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 48-1101 et seq.)
Employment services and job placement programs funded by public resources favored undocumented immigrants or specific ethnic groups, discriminating against U.S. citizens, including white citizens, in access to employment opportunities.
This violates Nebraska’s law prohibiting discrimination in employment practices based on race, color, or national origin.
Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law (18 U.S.C. § 242)
The intentional prioritization of services for undocumented immigrants over U.S. citizens, facilitated by public officials or entities acting under governmental authority, deprived citizens of their constitutional rights to equal treatment.
This federal statute criminalizes willful discrimination under color of law, applying to actions that undermine civil rights protections.
Misuse of Federal Funds for Discriminatory Programs (18 U.S.C. § 666)
Federal grants intended for broad community benefit were allocated to programs that discriminated by serving primarily undocumented immigrants or specific ethnic groups, violating the terms of the funding and federal anti-discrimination laws.
Misuse of over $5,000 in federal funds for discriminatory purposes constitutes a violation of this statute.
Theft of Public Funds Through Discriminatory Allocation (18 U.S.C. § 641)
Public funds were diverted to programs that excluded U.S. citizens based on race or national origin, effectively stealing resources meant for the general public and redirecting them to discriminatory initiatives.
This violation involves the unlawful conversion of public property (funds) for unauthorized, discriminatory purposes.
Violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq.)
Employment-related services, such as job training or placement programs funded by public or federal resources, discriminated against U.S. citizens, particularly white citizens, by prioritizing undocumented immigrants or specific ethnic groups.
Title VII prohibits discrimination in employment practices, including those facilitated by publicly funded programs, based on race or national origin.
Disparate Impact Discrimination (Title VI and Equal Protection Clause)
Policies and practices that appeared neutral (e.g., immigrant-focused outreach) had a disproportionate adverse impact on U.S. citizens, particularly white citizens, by limiting their access to services, even without explicit intent to discriminate.
Disparate impact violations occur when facially neutral policies result in discriminatory outcomes, actionable under Title VI and constitutional law.
Violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1866 (42 U.S.C. § 1981)
The provision of contracts, services, or benefits (e.g., healthcare, legal aid) to undocumented immigrants while excluding U.S. citizens based on race or ethnicity violated the right to equal treatment in contractual relationships.
Section 1981 guarantees all persons the same right to make and enforce contracts, including access to publicly funded services, without racial discrimination.
Discrimination in Housing Access (Fair Housing Act, 42 U.S.C. § 3601 et seq.)
Housing assistance programs funded by public resources prioritized undocumented immigrants or specific ethnic groups, limiting or denying access to U.S. citizens, particularly white citizens, who sought similar aid.
The Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in housing-related services based on race, color, or national origin, applying to publicly funded initiatives.
Violation of Nebraska’s Civil Rights Act (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 20-148)
State-funded programs and services that favored undocumented immigrants or specific ethnic groups over U.S. citizens violated Nebraska’s law, which allows individuals to seek redress for deprivation of civil rights by state actors.
This statute protects against discriminatory practices in public services and resource allocation.
Unequal Application of Anti-Discrimination Enforcement
Authorities failed to enforce anti-discrimination laws against programs serving undocumented immigrants, while similar violations by private entities (e.g., businesses) would face scrutiny, creating a double standard that indirectly discriminated against U.S. citizens.
This selective enforcement violates equal protection principles by allowing discriminatory practices to persist unchecked.
Violation of Due Process Clause (Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments)
The diversion of public resources to undocumented immigrants without transparent or equitable processes denied U.S. citizens their procedural due process rights to fair access to government-funded services.
Due process requires that public benefits be allocated through fair, non-discriminatory procedures.
Discrimination in Access to Healthcare Services (42 U.S.C. § 18116, Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act)
Healthcare programs funded by federal grants prioritized undocumented immigrants or specific ethnic groups, limiting access for U.S. citizens, particularly white citizens, in violation of anti-discrimination provisions in healthcare.
Section 1557 prohibits discrimination based on race, color, or national origin in health programs receiving federal funds.
Violation of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 (52 U.S.C. § 10301)
Civic engagement programs targeting immigrant communities, potentially including undocumented individuals, influenced local voting patterns, diluting the voting power of U.S. citizens, particularly those not targeted by these initiatives.
This violates the Voting Rights Act by creating unequal access to civic participation opportunities based on race or national origin.
Discriminatory Use of Tax-Exempt Status (26 U.S.C. § 501(c)(3))
Nonprofit organizations misused their tax-exempt status by engaging in discriminatory service provision, favoring undocumented immigrants over U.S. citizens, which violates IRS regulations requiring tax-exempt entities to serve the public interest without bias.
Discriminatory practices undermine the charitable purpose required for tax-exempt status.
Violation of Anti-Discrimination Provisions in Federal Grant Agreements
Federal grants from agencies like the Department of Health and Human Services or Office of Refugee Resettlement included anti-discrimination clauses, which were violated by allocating funds to programs that excluded U.S. citizens based on race or national origin.
Noncompliance with grant terms constitutes a civil rights violation and risks loss of funding.
Discrimination in Educational Services (Title VI and Equal Protection Clause)
Educational programs or resources funded by public or federal funds were directed toward undocumented immigrants or specific ethnic groups, excluding U.S. citizens, particularly white citizens, from equal access to educational opportunities.
This violates Title VI and constitutional protections ensuring equal access to education.
Violation of the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987 (Pub. L. 100-259)
The discriminatory practices extended across entire programs or institutions receiving federal funds, not just specific activities, violating the broad scope of Title VI as clarified by this act.
The act ensures that all operations of a funded entity must comply with anti-discrimination laws.
Discrimination Through Selective Advocacy (Equal Protection Clause)
Advocacy efforts, such as those by state-funded commissions, focused exclusively on the needs of undocumented immigrants or specific ethnic groups, neglecting the rights and needs of U.S. citizens, particularly white citizens.
Selective advocacy by public entities violates equal protection by prioritizing one group’s interests over others.
Violation of Nebraska’s Open Meetings Act (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 84-1407 et seq.) as a Civil Rights Issue
Decisions to allocate resources discriminatorily were made without transparent public meetings, denying citizens their right to participate in or challenge discriminatory policies, indirectly violating their civil rights.
Lack of transparency in resource allocation processes can exacerbate discriminatory outcomes.
Discrimination in Access to Legal Representation (Equal Protection Clause)
Legal aid programs funded by public or federal resources provided representation primarily to undocumented immigrants, excluding U.S. citizens, particularly white citizens, from similar legal support despite comparable needs.
Unequal access to legal services violates constitutional guarantees of equal treatment.
Notes
Each violation is derived from the scenario’s description of preferential treatment for undocumented immigrants and specific ethnic groups, with a focus on exclusionary practices against U.S. citizens, particularly white citizens.
The violations span federal and Nebraska laws, constitutional protections, and regulatory frameworks, reflecting the multifaceted nature of the alleged discrimination.
Criminal implications (e.g., 18 U.S.C. § 242, § 666, § 641) are included where discriminatory practices involve intentional or systemic misuse of public authority or resources.
