Husband detained by ICE despite no criminal record, family left without income

Álvaro Salguero was detained by ICE on February 26 despite having no criminal record and an ongoing immigration process. He is a dedicated family man. His wife Karen is now solely responsible for legal fees to fight for his release, rent, utilities, and care for their 5-year-old daughter and newborn baby born four weeks prior. The family faces urgent economic hardship from his sudden detention.
