Members of pro-immigration group LUPE hit by Trump crackdown on immigration
· KRGV (NBC 5)
Members of the pro-immigration group LUPE are facing challenges due to intensified immigration enforcement under the Trump administration. Yenniffer England, a DACA recipient and LUPE member, was recently released from detention after three months. LUPE president Tania Chavez Camacho reported that four members have been detained or deported, and over 20 have lost their DACA status due to delays. This crackdown has created fear within the community, leading to decreased participation in LUPE events. The organization continues to advocate for change and provide support, including cash assistance for those who have lost work permits. U.S. Senator Alex Padilla met with LUPE members to discuss these issues.
