Biography
Yesenia Hernández Ramos was a Migrant Justice member who took part in a thirteen-mile farmworker-rights march in Vermont on June 17, 2017. The organization’s November 2018 federal complaint states that Border Patrol arrested Yesenia Hernández Ramos and a fellow participant later that day, transferred both to ICE, and held them for several days. The plaintiffs alleged that officials continued detaining them after questioning the legal basis for doing so. The allegation of retaliation is attributed to the complaint rather than presented as a final court finding.
