“I just got done visiting with Karla Toledo at an ICE facility in Tucson,” Grijalva said in a release. “Karla is a DACA recipient with legal status in this country who is a beloved member of our community that serves on local boards and volunteers her time helping others.”
Grijalva said agents entered Toledo’s home without a warrant and said she is calling on ICE to release Toledo immediately. She said her office left paperwork for Toledo, who is physically OK, to fill out.

“ICE’s blatant disregard for the rule of law and due process is outrageous and completely out of line,” she said. “We live in a country where everyone has constitutional rights, no matter how hard ICE tries to trample on them. Karla must be released immediately, and ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.”
Several groups, including Scholarships A-Z and the Party of Socialism & Liberation, hosted an emergency protest Monday demanding the release of Toledo, whom they called an anti-ICE activist. It was held at the ICE field office at 6431 South Country Club Road.
PSL Tucson claimed that ICE said Toldeo was “detained based on a legal requirement that doesn’t even exist.”
