American Families United hasn't added a story.
On Thursday June 21st, US military wife Alejandra Jaurez will be deported. Her husband Temo Juarez served in Africa, the Balkans, South America, and Iraq. Alejandra's case has garnered national attention in the press when she, Pamela, and Estela met with lawmakers outside the Capitol on April 26th, and brave, young Estela made an emotional plea to let her mom stay.
Alejandra came to the US at a young age fleeing violence. She was coached by a coyote who steered her away from legal immigration, even though she may have qualified. But she went on to graduate from high school, worked hard, and fell in love with her American husband in Florida.
Shortly after Temo and Alejandra married and had their first
daughter, Pamela, Temo’s unit was activated. Alejandra took on the
responsibilities of home while Temo was at war, and did everything
our country asked of her as a military wife.
Alejandra has been a member of Davenport, Florida community for
13 years, where Temo opened a flooring business and they had their
second daughter, Estela. You may have seen Alejandra at Church of
Agape Love; at her husband’s St. Ann Catholic Church; or taking her
daughters to the library, the park, or dance school.
Alejandra is exactly the kind of person we want to keep in this country. There is a bi-partisan bill, HR 1036, the American Families United Act, which would help Temo, Alejandra, Pamela, and Estela by restoring case-by-case reviews of deportations and legal immigration applications. Getting this bill passed will be long, difficult and expensive, and anything you can donate is greatly appreciated.

corporation that helps families take their cases to Congress in
efforts to change the law.
