Support Omar Nuñez After ICE Detention!

Greetings! Hola! Español abajo

On Thursday morning, June 19th, 2025, Omar Nuñez was detained by ICE at the San Fernando Home Depot.

A group of us, community members, had gone that morning to build rapport and disseminate Know Your Rights materials. A few minutes after we left, we got word that ICE was snatching people up at that location. When we arrived, it was too late, they had taken Omar and about ten other day laborers. His truck was left there with his tools which we are almost certain were later stolen ( both truck and tools, valued at $10,000).

I got a call from him about a week later, from Mexico, telling me his inhumane and traumatizing experience both getting detained and inside the detention center: federal agents lying to him about being detained, giving him inedible food, overcrowded and freezing conditions, no sleep, witnessing violence against other detainees by federal agents, etc.

Our goal is to raise at least $2000 USD to send him as soon as we can. This emergency money will help cover his day to day needs and livelihood while he seeks legal representation.

If you think you can help his case with any other resource, please contact me on this platform.

Thank you in advance for your willingness to support Omar in his time of need. We will keep you updated on his story as it develops. Si Se Puede!

With deep Gratitude,
Yvonne

La mañana del jueves 19 de junio de 2025, Omar Núñez fue detenido por ICE en el Home Depot de San Fernando.

Un grupo de nosotras, gente de la comunidad, habíamos ido esa mañana para hablar con los jornaleros de sus derechos. A los pocos minutos de irnos, nos enteramos de que ICE estaba deteniendo en esa locación. Cuando regresamos, ya era demasiado tarde; se habían llevado a Omar y a unos diez jornaleros. Su camioneta quedó allí con sus herramientas, que estamos, casi seguros, fueron robadas posteriormente (tanto la camioneta como las herramientas, valoradas en $10,000).

Recibí una llamada de Omar una semana después, desde México, contándome su experiencia traumática: agentes federales le mintió sobre su detención, frío extremo, comida horible, sin dormir, miro violencia contra otros detenidos por parte de agentes federales, etc.

Nuestro objetivo es recaudar al menos $2000 USD para enviarlo lo antes posible. Este dinero de emergencia le ayudará a cubrir sus necesidades diarias y su sustento mientras busca representación legal para regresar a Estados Unidos por motivos personales.

Si cree que puede ayudar en su caso con algún otro recurso, por favor, contácteme en esta plataforma.

Gracias de antemano por su disposición a apoyar a Omar en este momento de necesidad. Los mantendremos informados sobre su historia a medida que se desarrolle. ¡Sí se puede!

Muchísimas Gracias,
Yvonne
