There are many stories that we have heard. This workers are to afraid to get sick and maybe lose their jobs. As they are said "We are replaceable" . Wen we stooped and give the info they look at us as their salvation, looking at us as we have their solution. One 65 year old man told us he wish he have SS# so this way he can be at home, he is being here since 1997 and until now he is not able to receive any assistance. His life is being only working and try to save money to survive. He told us he feels lonely, specially during this elections or when he saw the news and the way the president express him self about our community. As he said being undocumented has not being easy, but now with COVID and the elections he feels so useless.
