Today, ICE announced it will suspend most vehicle stops nationwide after the killings of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston and a 26-year-old Colombian man in Maine. This shift came because of the sustained voices of families, advocates, and community leaders who refused to let these deaths pass in silence.

It is important to acknowledge that this suspension is temporary. According to reporting, it does not apply to “serious criminal targets” a category ICE defines broadly and has abused before. It does not end 287(g) in Webb County or across Texas, where the collaboration between local policing and federal enforcement continues.

As a community, we continue to prepare our families and understand our constitutional rights.
Keep documenting what you see. Keep sharing our resources with your neighbors.

Visit our linktree for Know Your Rights guides, family emergency planning and enforcement tools, and how to contact LIA. Please help us share widely so we can reach as many community members as possible with these vital resources.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was killed by an ICE agent in Houston on Tuesday. He was only 52 years old and had lived in this country for 35 years. “A husband, a father, and a job creator for dozens of men, also wanting the American dream.” This was how his son, Ronaldo Salgado, described him.

The Laredo Immigrant Alliance echoes the calls from local elected representatives in Houston and the Salgado family for a full and transparent investigation. Bodycam, surveillance, radio, and witness evidence must be released. To the Salgado family: We see you. We grieve with you. Your community has your back. Lorenzo will be remembered.

Linked below, and on the flyer, you will find a GoFund me and a petition form. The former will go towards his funeral and burial costs, legal expenses, and everyday living costs for his wife and three sons. The latter is a petition demanding a full transparent investigation into this tragedy.

We urge you to share this message and spread the word, to find justice for Lorenzo and his family.

Yesterday, the Supreme Court upheld birthright citizenship, and reaffirmed what the 14th Amendment has said for the past 158 years: Children born on American soil, are U.S. Citizens.

This ruling matters to every family carrying real fear in regards to the threat to birthright citizenship. No parent should have to question if their child belongs in a country where they were born. The decision reached on June 30th, marks an important and celebratory step. There is still work to be done. We must continue to build a community where every family can live with dignity and peace of mind.

Have questions about what this means for your family or wellness support?

As we close the month of June, we want to take a moment to reflect on DACA’s anniversary on June 15, 2012, when the program first opened the door for hundreds of thousands of young people who had grown up in this country to live and work without the daily fear of deportation.

Thirteen years later, DACA is still here but under threat. So are the people it was built for.

Our June 2026 survey of Webb County DACA recipients found that 80% are very or extremely worried about the current situation. Although DACA was never the full answer, it has been a lifeline and it has built a generation of leaders, workers, parents, and students who are not going anywhere.

To every DACA recipient in Webb County: we see you. We’re organizing alongside you for the permanent solution our community has been waiting for.

Official Statement from the Laredo Immigrant Alliance (LIA) on the Death of Felix Alcorta-Rodriguez while in ICE Custody at the Webb County Detention Center.

We hold him, his family, and his loved ones in our hearts. He deserved to live a dignified life, not one spent behind bars separated from his loved ones. We will continue to monitor organize and advocate, because our community deserved better, and his family and loved ones deserve answers, transparency, and dignity.

We call on Webb County leaders, congressional representatives, and federal oversight bodies to demand a full and transparent investigation not just into Mr. Alcorta-Rodriguez’s death, but into the conditions at the Webb County Detention Center and the broader pattern of deaths across Texas that led to his death. We call on Webb County’s elected officials to reconsider their participation in the 287(g) Jail Enforcement Model, which enabled MR. Alcorta-Rodriguez’s transfer, and ultimately, his death.

To families in Webb County, we at LIA are with you. If you or your family need information or support, you can reach us at (956)410-0713

SB 4 was first introduced in 2017, and has gone through various amendments throughout the years. This year it has been put into effect which will have a detrimental impact to our marginalized communities. What does this mean for us?

The key provisions of this bill are mandatory compliance with ICE detainer requests, prevents “sanctuary cities”, and ,recently, allows for local law enforcement arrest those suspected of entering the state without authorization. This will directly result in unjust arrests from racial profiling simply for being brown and speaking Spanish.

What can we do?
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS! Remember your 4th, 5th, and 6th, amendments.
4th You reserve the right to protection from unjust searches and seizures. DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR. “I do not give you the right to enter my home/search my car without a judicial warrant.”
5th You have the right to remain silent. “I’m invoking my right to remain silent under my 5th amendment right”
6th You have the right to refuse to sign documents without a lawyer present. “I want to talk to a lawyer before signing any documents”
