Chicago families held a press conference in support of their loved ones return to the United States from Mexico as part of the national #BringThemHome campaign.

On Monday morning at Casa Michoacan, families held a press conference to bolster their #BringThemHome campaign and urge President Barack Obama to stop deportations and reunite families. This month, the Obama Administration will hit its two-millionth deportation, a number many families are heartbroken over. March is a month undocumented youth have used for the past five years to declare themselves ‘undocumented and unafraid.’

“This year, we will use Coming Out of the Shadows day to tell the movement that the fight to keep families together does not end with deportation,” said Marcela Espinoza, a member of the DREAM30 Campaign. “Our community is coming together to support the families whose loved ones are coming home.”

Espinoza was fortunate enough to reunite with her family in Chicago after eight years of separation, through the Bring Them Home campaign. She spent 30 days inside the El Paso Processing Center, a detention center in El Paso, Texas.

This will be the third time the #BringThemHome campaign has fought for immigrants who were deported or forced to leave their homes in the United States. On Monday’s press conference, participants began the long journey back to their loved ones across the country after crossing the border in San Diego.

March is a special time for the immigrant rights movement, as many undocumented immigrants have participated in ‘coming out’ rallies, speaking about their undocumented status publicly for the first time.
