Help Hector Nolasco fight his case...

We need your help: On Sunday, 2/3/13, Hector Nolasco, a day laborer leader in Winnetka, CA, was arrested after his employer falsely reported him to the police. Now Hector is in the custody of the Los Angeles Sheriff and is at risk of being transferred to ICE. Please donate to help Hector fight his case and support his family while he is in jail!

The funds raised will be used to pay for his bail, attorney fees and, also, to support his wife and daughter as Hector was the main bread-winner and his family is now at risk of becoming homeless...

Here's what happened:

Hector and a friend were hired to work for 5 hours. After working 7, they told their employer he'd have to pay them more if he wanted them to keep working. When he refused, Hector and his friend walked away. But the employer followed them, harassed them and, finally, called the police and falsely reported that Hector had threatened them with a knife.

If this story sounds familiar, it's because it happens all too often. With your support, we, the National Day Laborer Organizing Network, recently succeeded in stopping the deportation of Jose Ucelo, a day laborer who, like Hector, faced deportation after his employer falsely reported him to the police.

Thank you!

Now we need to help Hector like we helped Jose. Please donate today.
