Catalina 'Xochitl' Santiago is a DACA recipient and activist known for her work with the nonprofit organization La Mujer Obrera. She gained national attention following her arrest by U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents at El Paso International Airport while traveling for work. Her arrest, based on a past dismissed charge related to drug paraphernalia, raised concerns over the legal grounds for her detention and the broader implications for other DACA beneficiaries.

She is scheduled to have an immigration court hearing on September 10.
