Candace Sublett and Marisela Aramino, members of the Tarrant County Democratic Party in Texas, are issuing a stern warning as President Donald Trump orders crackdowns on illegal immigration … noting recent mass arrests could have a dire ripple effect.
The women, who’ve coordinated rallies in Texas against ICE’s increase in raids, tell TMZ … there’s a misconception about who is being targeted, explaining it’s not just blue-collar laborers being arrested, but key economy contributors, too — including teachers, doctors, bank tellers, and engineers.

As Candace puts it … the raids go against the “fabric of the Constitution,” which encourages people to come to the United States of America in order to build a better life.
She adds … “We have the highest immigrant population in our county. Our economy locally will fall apart … That’s a reality. That’s the understanding of how much has been put into this community.”

Candace’s message is clear — without these people and their contributions to the community, “Texas will plummet” … on a micro and macro scale.
Marisela cosigns Candace’s point, highlighting how even representatives at the local level are immigrants and face uncertainty in Trump’s second administration … something not just locals should be worried about.
This is why Candace and Marisela continue to coordinate their “Keep Families Together” rallies … hoping they can create a safe space for people to protest these deportations and amplify the voices of the underrepresented.
