Los Angeles student Jasyln Hernandez graduated from high school last week, just like thousands of other teenagers. But her father wasn’t there to see it.1
He was one of two dozen people taken in an ICE raid at a carwash where he worked, and Jaslyn doesn’t know when she’ll see him again. Only four of the 26 people detained have been located by their families.2
ICE raids of workplaces, courthouses, and even school neighborhoods are becoming more frequent, with a goal of arresting 3,000 people a day, separating families and shutting down businesses. And now the National Guard are accompanying ICE on many of these raids.3
Donald Trump campaigned on deporting “criminals” but the reality has been very different. What laws allow ICE to detain people without due process? What happens to children once their parents are taken? And what can we do to help protect this vulnerable community? We’re going to find out!
