Not wanting to identify herself due to fear, a woman was scheduled to appear at the office to change her address after arriving in the U.S. six months ago.
"People are scaring me that they are arresting people for no reason," the woman said. "I don't know what to do next."
"In the community, there is a lot of fear," farmworker advocate Luis Magaña shared. "People don't want to come show up for their appointment for the same reason."
"We need to know what happened because most of these people who were at this appointment, they have families, they have kids," he said.
"We're here mostly just to keep eyes. They're saying they're closed today and directing people away from the facility, so we with the Valley Watch Network are trying to link people to that legal support," said Amy Whitlock, a volunteer with Port City Food Not Bombs. "We have the Valley Watch hotline number. We also have the rights that immigrants, anybody here in this country have, and we have numbers to the consulates as well on cards."
"They are trying to find legal help. It's very expensive, immigration lawyers. Some made calls to lawyers and they had to pay close to $500 for just a talk to the lawyer," Magaña explained. "It's a very, very stressful situation for many families."
Advocates say they are planning on holding a vigil outside the office on Tuesday, starting at 10 a.m.
