A group of 10 transgender migrant women, who traveled to the U.S. as part of a Central American caravan, are celebrating after they won their asylum cases last week and were released from a migrant jail in Texas. The migrants were represented by lawyers for the immigrant rights groups RAICES.

Cataleya: “I feel extremely happy, because my dreams have come true. I won my asylum case. Thank you, RAICES, for all the help and support. Thank you to my attorney, Flor, and thank you, Dany, for always supporting me. I feel so happy, because I know that I’m heading to my new life. My future starts now.”

Around 20 other transgender migrants who traveled in the same group are still detained. RAICES has warned that transgender migrants face additional threats and mistreatment both en route to the U.S. and while in migrant prisons.
