maketheroadny Twelve days after his youngest daughter was born prematurely, Juan Chavez Velasco was stopped by immigration agents while delivering milk to her hospital room. He was detained. Juan is a DACA recipient, a husband to a U.S. citizen wife, and a father to four U.S. citizen children - the youngest born just this February. DACA recipients are being ripped from their families every day. Juan's story is one of hundreds. His story deserves to be heard.
