UPDATE: As of October 4th, Immigration and Customs Enforcement granted Fani her request for prosecutorial discretion, and she will be able to stay with her children. Although her case is still pending, she is no longer under immediate threat of deportation. Thank you for your support!

Fani Elizabeth Gonzalez (A# 99615578) is a Tennessee single mother who has lived in the community for 6 years, and worked hard to provide for her four children and her mother. She is an active leader of the Women’s Committee at the Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition (TIRCC), a powerful defender of immigrant rights in her community, and a business woman.

On October 2nd she had what she thought could be her last check-in with ICE before being detained and potentially deported. However, thanks to the support she got from the community, ICE told her she has 30 more days, and that they are re-considering her ask for prosecutorial discretion to close her case.
