ICE agents recently detained a Public Works employee based entirely on profiling him because of his country of origin. He was legally authorized to work in the United States by the federal government and had a valid/current MN commercial driver's license.

He is a great employee and contributed to Public Works team efforts to plow snow, fill potholes, and keep Saint Paul Street safe. His detention leaves his wife without any income because she is now afraid to go to work, she knows few people in the community, and we are working to get her support.

We are raising money to help support him and his wife during this immediate crisis, and hope that he will be able to return to the US and Public Works, as soon as possible.

As background: I'm Jericho Huggar, Street Superintendent in Public Works. We have permission from his wife for this fundraiser, and a fellow employee is in regular contact with her.

Anything you can do to help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
