Maria Arreola and Dream Activist Erika Andiola
(BMLTV) Phoenix, AZ,
January 11, 2013 - According to Dream Activist Erika Andiola, during the
evening of January 10, immigration (ICE) knocked on her door and her mother and
brother, Maria and Heriberto Andiola Arreola were immediately apprehended because
according to immigration (ICE), the mother and brother were illegally in the
United Stated and they both needed to go. Ms. Andiola claims her older brother was
outside with a neighbor when the raid occurred.
Last year President Obama and ICE announced they would not
deport individuals without a criminal record, but Ms. Andiola says that families
are torn apart every day and this type of raiding needs to stop.
Ms. Andiola is expected to be at the immigration office
along with a group of supporters to try to delay or stop the deportation of her
mother.
Ms. Andiola says that she will be holding a press conference
at ICE and ask Obama and the administration to help get her family back without
further delay.
