A man with a pending asylum application and a valid work permit was detained by ICE and remains in detention. He had been working legally with a Social Security number before his detention, and his family says they are struggling financially and emotionally without him. His son started a fundraiser to help pay for a lawyer, bond, and household bills as the family awaits upcoming court dates.
