FCD Statement on Monrovia Home Depot ICE raid death

The Foothill Community Democrats extend our deepest condolences to the family of Roberta Carlos Montoya, who was struck while fleeing in fear from ICE’s most recent violation of the federal temporary restraining order in Monrovia on August 14th, 2025.  We condemn the use of ICE in our communities, and denounce the Home Depot for their ongoing collaboration with ICE. 
Raids like these do not keep our communities safe, instead they instill fear and put lives at risk. This death is a direct result of Trump's racist attacks on brown individuals, and the scapegoating of immigrant populations. 
Their blood is on his hands, and we call for the end to this ongoing occupation of our neighborhoods. We reject the weaponization of the immigration system to carry out the White supremacist and fascist ideals held by the Trump administration. 

To assist with the family, feel free to donate to his gofundme.
