On January 12th, 2026, Baldomero - a Pasadena hardworking day laborer - was simply standing on a corner with other jornaleros looking to get a job for the day like they routinely do, getting ready to start his work day when, without warning, multiple ICE agents appeared and detained him simply for looking for a job.
Baldomero is a dedicated husband and father. He is the sole provider for his household and now, with Baldomero detained and facing a long legal battle for his freedom, his family is left without his income and without a safety net.
We’re asking for your support to help cover his legal expenses and the family’s basic needs during this difficult time. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings Baldomero one step closer to reuniting with his loved ones and regaining his freedom.
Please give what you can today and help us bring Baldomero back home to his family.
