Rep. Schwartz: Save a father of two U.S. citizen girls
Release Israel Hernandez (A# 079-737-080) from Pike County Correctional Facility!
Why is this important?
Dear Rep. Allyson,
As your constituent, I write to ask you to urge contact ICE to release Israel Hernandez (A# 079-737-080) from York County Correctional Facility. He is the father of two U.S. citizen girls and they need him home.
Israel has been living in the United States for over a decade. He is a small business owner in Norristown, Pennsylvania, known for caring about his community. He donates money, time and contibute to churches, and the local police and fire departments.
Israel was picked up by ICE on January 27, 2014 as he was closing his business and was taken to the local county jail. Israel had to return to Mexico in October of 2013 because he father died and he wanted to be present at his funeral. He tried to return immediately after the funeral but was detained at the border, and he was deported in November of last year. His crime was to be with his father in his last moment of life.
His nine-year-old daughter, Caitlin, has not eaten since her father’s arrest, almost two days. She is terrified that he may be deported and separated from her.
I urge you to contact ICE to immediately release Israel Hernandez (A# 079-737-080) so he can return to his family and his community in Norristown.
