A group of at least six LGBT activists said Wednesday they won't leave the office of the Congressional LGBT Equality Caucus on Capitol Hill until the caucus agrees to issue a statement urging President Obama to ensure LGBT inclusion in potential executive action on immigration.

"We're asking for the caucus to release a statement today," said Hermelinda Cortes of Southerners on New Ground, a regional LGBT rights group. "We will be sitting in until that demand is met or we are arrested." They've set up a live broadcast of the demonstration.

Equality Caucus Executive Director Brad Jacklin told BuzzFeed just after noon Wednesday the organization will meet with the activists to address the issue and their demands.

The sit-in action comes on the heels of a letter issued to the caucus last Friday by the activists and 24 local and national LGBT and immigrant's rights groups, including SONG, Familia: Trans Queer Liberation Movement, Transgender Law Center, and the National Center for Lesbian Rights.

"As the groups listed below we know that the White House is in motion to act on immigration and we are calling on the Equality Caucus to use its influence to advocate for the needs of LGBTQ immigrants," the organizations stated in the letter, obtained by BuzzFeed. "LGBTQ immigrants will be deeply affected by whatever President Obama decides."

Specifically, the activists have asked the Equality Caucus to urge Obama to include four LGBT-specific recommendations in "administrative relief" on immigration, such as expanding Deferred Action (DACA) to the extent of the law and ending all collaboration among ICE and law enforcement agencies.

The activists also demand eliminating the use of solitary confinement for LGBT people held in immigration detention, saying in the letter that the practice constitutes torture and is an unacceptable form of housing LGBT immigrants. "Solitary Confinement is regularly used to supposedly 'protect' Trans and LGB people while in detention," they said. "If ICE cannot guarantee LGBTQ people's safety, they should not be detaining them."

With that, they've also asked for expanded protections for LGBT people in police or ICE custody and in detention centers because many may need special access to medical care or other considerations.

"President Obama is feeling a lot of political pressure to act on the issue of immigration since Congress has failed to do it," Cortes said. "These communities cannot wait for a piece of administrative relief that doesn't include all LGBTQ folks."
