A judge decided to deny bond for a Rio Grande Valley DACA recipient during a Tuesday hearing and ordered her removed from the United States.

England plans to appeal the judge's decision, her attorney said.

Yenniffer England is being held at a detention center in Raymondville. She was first detained in February after she was pulled over by the Texas Department of Public Safety for speeding in Donna.

DPS said her license was suspended, and she had no proof of insurance.

England is a registered nurse’s assistant with an active DACA status, or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. She moved to New York in 2020 and moved back to the Valley in December 2025.

A protest calling for England's release that was led by the non-profit organization La Union del Pueblo Entero was held on Tuesday outside the detention facility. 

A news release from LUPE said the organization is deeply saddened over the deportation order.

"[England,] like many others currently detained, is being deprived of human dignity and the opportunities to build a life in the country she’s lived in most of her life," LUPE said in the statement. "Today, this administration chose to keep a mother away from her family. Yenniffer’s strongest desire is to build a future in this country, the only real home she’s always known."
