TRUMP PARDONS ARPAIO
While our community is still being persecuted. .

[Houston, TX] On Friday August 25, 2017 the white house announced that President Trump has pardoned the infamous and criminal Joe Arpaio. FIEL Spokespeople are available for comment.

"We are deeply saddened and angered that the President Trump has decided to align himself with the white nationalist movement and answer the call to pardon Joe Arpaio. We also are appalled at the fact that this real criminal is being let loose while our hard working immigrant community is being persecuted. We can see that President trump is bending the arms of justice towards his convenience and that is not what our constitution stands for. " Cesar Espinosa Executive Director of FIEL
