Pricilia Rodriguez, Immigrant Rights Advocate, Needs Your Support!

Pricilia is a beloved grandmother and member of the immigrant rights community in Michigan. For over 7 years, she has been a dedicated advocate for communities in need through her church and organizations like Michigan United, Michigan People’s Campaign and Welcome Everyone Grosse Pointe. She has organized fundraisers and events to support immigrant families and community organizations when they needed her help, and now she needs your help.

I am Adonis Flores, from Michigan United. I have known Pricilia for over 5 years and have become her colleague and friend. All funds collected through this page will go directly to Pricilia to help her cover health and legal costs as well as living expenses during this trying times, where her future in this country is uncertain. She will be able to directly withdraw your donations.

Pricilia has advocated for so many immigrants, now she needs us to fight for her. She has been litigating her immigration case for over 5 years, incurring hefty legal and health expenses that are not covered for immigrants like her. The crisis in Venezuela, her home country, left her with nothing, draining her savings and bankrupting her small information technology company. After 20 years of living in the U.S. the immigration judge found her case credible, yet, still decided not to let Pricilia continue to live in the U.S. However, Pricilia is a fighter and does not give up easily. She has a good opportunity to appeal her case, so she will do it.

Despite her fighting entrepreneurial spirit, Pricilia needs your help to raise $5,000 that would bring her back afloat. She needs help to cover her current health and legal costs for the appeal, and for her bond. This will allow Pricilia to continue fighting for her case and other immigrant families without being put in detention. 

Pricilia has been a strong mother and grandmother not just for her children and grandchildren, but also to dozens of immigrant families that needed her help to stop their deportations. In the photo above Pricilia is demanding Senator Debbie Stabenow to fight for immigrant families in Congress. When immigrant families needed to meet with Congress to demand a Compassionate Immigration Reform that reunited separated families, Priscilia has been there every year. When our community needed to meet with the state legislature and the governor to demand drivers licenses for immigrants, Priscilia has been in the front row. When dozens of families have been threatened with deportation, Priscilia has been in the front lines organizing pilgrimages, rallies, town halls and efforts to stop their deportation. Most importantly, despite her inability to vote, every year Priscilia has knocked on hundreds of doors to get voters to the polls. Please help Pricilia in her time of need.

Thank you!
