<div>Delmy is a loving wife and mother to 2 young daughters, Skarleth and Lexi, who are just 9 and 6. She was detained on January 24 and we are urgently raising money for her immigration case and legal fees. Still in custody, Delmy has been transferred from New York State to Louisiana. Support for legal fees is critical as you can see from her story - we are now raising money to secure an immigration attorney to fight Delmy's case and reunite her with her family. Please help us bring this mother home to her little girls! Any donation is appreciated.

<div>She and her husband Luis have filed an asylum claim and have been waiting years for the immigration court to schedule their case. Delmy and Luis, who have lived in the North Country for several years, have been members of the Workers Center for most of that time. Leaders in their community, they filed their asylum case pro se after struggling to find a lawyer to help them. Luis worked in dairies, and more recently a local lumber mill. In 2022, Delmy represented the WCCNY in a statewide worker leadership program as part of the Fund Excluded Workers Campaign. On Friday January 24, Delmy had the kind of bad luck many of us in Upstate NY have had, she hit a deer while driving at night. Her car was damaged and she called her husband. He encouraged her to walk to the nearest house to get help. It was cold and she was in rural St. Lawrence county. Unfortunately, the neighboring house was not friendly to a young Spanish speaking immigrant and they immediately called the police. Despite having a valid drivers license, the police called immigration.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Delmy's removal case had been dismissed in 2022, and she is listed on her husband's asylum case. Despite having gone to all of her court dates and having no criminal record, she was taken into custody and held at the Customs and Border Patrol station in Ogdensberg. By late Sunday night she was transferred to a regular jail in Vermont. She was able to call Luis—she was told Vermont was temporary, she would be transferred to Georgia. Her husband missed work as we coordinated to find legal support and put together paperwork, hoping we could get her out on bail before she was sent far away from her family. We found a pro bono immigration lawyer in Vermont with legal credentials to visit at the jail where Delmy was held. But he ran into roadblock after roadblock. Immigration officials wouldn't confirm which officer had her case, and the jail's phone system inexplicably rejected his calls. She was transferred to Georgia, and then finally to Louisiana.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We worked fast to put together everything for a bond application—their immigration court paperwork, their last 3 years of tax filings, letters of support from the children's teacher, their pastor, Luis' employer, the Workers Center, the birth certificate for their youngest child, a US citizen, financial sponsor letters pledging to support Delmy. We secured a lawyer in Louisiana who visited Delmy and put together the final bond application. Then on Tuesday February 4, we were left frantic and stunned as Luis and both of his daughters were taken into custody and held in immigration detention in Batavia–including his US citizen daughter who was just 5 years old. They were held overnight and finally released the next day as immigration officials acknowledged his papers were in order, he was working with a valid work permit, paying taxes, and the immigration hearing they accused him of missing had actually been canceled by the court.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Shaken, but determined, we waited for news on Delmy’s case. Weeks after being detained, her case had still not been re-opened by the court, and the lawyers were unable to file the motion for bail. Finally on Friday, March 7, 6 weeks after she was detained, Delmy had her first hearing, her first opportunity to go to court since. Despite the outpouring of support and meeting all the general standards for bail, the judge declared that he had no jurisdiction to authorize bail. Her lawyer was stunned. While they continue to research to see if they can fight the judge’s interpretation, your donation will help secure an immigration attorney to fight Delmy's case and reunite her with her family.

<div>ESPANOL
</div>
<div>Delmy es una esposa querida y madre de 2 hijas pequeñas, Skarleth y Lexi, que tienen 9 y 6 años. Fue detenida el 24 de enero y estamos recaudando dinero urgentemente para su caso de inmigración y los costos legales. Delmy, aún bajo custodia, ha sido transferida del estado de Nueva York a Luisiana. El apoyo para los gastos legales es crucial, como puede ver en su historia. Ahora estamos recaudando fondos para contratar a un abogado de inmigración que luche por su caso y la reúna con su familia. ¡Por favor, ayúdennos a traer a esta madre de vuelta a casa con sus hijas! Agradecemos cualquier donación.
</div>

</div>
<div>Ella y su esposo Luis han presentado una solicitud de asilo y han estado esperando años para que la corte de inmigración les de una fecha. Delmy y Luis, que han vivido varios años aquí en el norte del estado, han sido miembros del Centro de Trabajadores durante la mayor parte de ese tiempo. Líderes en su comunidad, presentaron su caso de asilo pro se después de batallar por encontrar un abogado que los ayudara. Luis trabajó en lecherías y, más recientemente, en un aserradero. En 2022, Delmy representó a WCCNY en un programa de liderazgo de trabajadores en todo el estado de NY como parte de la Campaña de Trabajadores Excluidos. El viernes 24 de enero, Delmy tuvo el tipo de mala suerte que muchos de nosotros en el norte del estado de NY hemos tenido, iba manejando de noche cuando chocó con un venado. Su auto quedó dañado y llamó a su esposo. Él la animó a caminar hasta la casa más cercana para buscar ayuda. Hacía frío y ella estaba en el condado rural de St. Lawrence. Lamentablemente, la casa vecina no era amigable para una inmigrante hispanohablante y llamaron a la policía. A pesar de tener una licencia de conducir válida, la policía llamó a inmigración.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>El caso de deportación de Delmy fue desestimado en 2022, y ella aparece en el caso de asilo de su esposo. A pesar de haber asistido a todas sus cortes y de nunca haber estado en problemas, ella fue detenida. Se la llevaron a la estación de la Patrulla Fronteriza en Ogdensberg. En plena noche el domingo fue trasladada a una cárcel regular en Vermont. Pudo llamar a Luis, le había dicho que Vermont era temporal, que la trasladarían hasta Georgia. Su esposo faltó al trabajo mientras nos coordinábamos para encontrar apoyo legal y reunir la documentación, con la esperanza de poder sacarla bajo fianza antes de que la enviaran lejos de su familia. Encontramos un abogado de inmigración pro bono en Vermont que tenía credenciales para visitar en la cárcel donde Delmy estaba detenida. Pero se topó con un obstáculo tras otro. La migra se negó a confirmar qué oficial tenía su caso, y el sistema telefónico de la cárcel rechazó sus llamadas. Delmy fue transferida a Georgia, y finalmente a Luisiana.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Trabajamos rápido para reunir todo para una solicitud de fianza: su documentación de la corte de inmigración, sus últimos 3 años de declaraciones de impuestos, cartas de apoyo de la maestra de las niñas, de su pastor, del empleador de Luis, y del Centro de Trabajadores, el certificado de nacimiento de su hija menor, ciudadana estadounidense. Incluso una carta de patrocinamiento financiero. Conseguimos un abogado en Louisiana que visitó a Delmy y armó la solicitud final de fianza. Luego el martes, 4 de febrero, nos quedamos en shock, Luis y ambas niñas quedaron detenidas por ICE y se los llevaron a todos en Batavia–incluyendo a su hija menor de 5 años que es ciudadana estadounidense. Los detuvieron hasta el próximo día cuando por fin, al reconocer que Luis tenía todo en orden, hasta permiso de trabajo válido y que pagaba los taxes, y que la corte que le había acusado de haber faltado de hecho fue cancelado y nunca le dieron una nueva fecha.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Alterados pero decididos, nos tocó esperar novedades del caso de Delmy. Semanas después de haber sido detenida, la corte aún no había reabierto su caso, y los abogados no pudieron presentar la moción de fianza. Finalmente, el viernes 7 de marzo, 6 semanas después de haber sido detenida, Delmy tuvo su primera audiencia, su primera oportunidad de ir a la corte. A pesar de la gran cantidad de apoyo y de cumplir con todos los estándares generales para la fianza, el juez declaró que no le podía otorgar la fianza, que esa decisión era fuera de su jurisdicción. Mientras el abogado ve si hay manera de seguir peleando la decisión del juez, nosotros estamos recaudando fondos para conseguir un abogado de inmigración que luche el caso de Delmy y la reúna con su familia.
</div>

</div>
<div>Delmy se mantiene firme y necesita que la comunidad la respalde. ¡Por favor, ayúdanos a volver a esta madre a casa con sus hijas! Cualquier donación será muy apreciada. Si no puedes donar, por favor comparte la historia de Delmy.
