Free Felix Vladimir Ponce Alvarez!

Congresswoman Randall, Senator Murrary, and Senator Cantwell

Felix is currently being held at the Northwest Detention Center. He is one of our many Free Them All campaigns

"My name is Felix Vladimir Ponce Alvarez. I am from El Salvador and I have been living in Seattle, Washington since 2002 and I am a father of 3 children. A 22 year old daughter, a 17 year old son, and my youngest little daughter who is only 10 months old.

I have been in ICE and GEO custody since February 24, 2026. Inside this detention center, conditions are poor. Many people get sick often, who were healthy before. I have been sick 4 times since February. The guards are often cruel, intentionally humiliating the people here. But beyond that, I want to mention 10 things out of many that money cannot buy. This is my story, all of it because my freedom was taken away.

I was doing my regular report with ICE, but they arrested me without clear reason.
The loss of my brother Moses who passed on April 18th, 2026, and I could not be present in his funeral.

The loss of my own house, that with a lot of effort I bought to provide my family peace of mind by providing them with housing stability by having their own home. Now this peace of mind is gone because I have not been able to pay the mortgage while held here. Our house has been taken back. My wife and kids have been evicted out of our own house.

I missed my mother’s day celebration in May.
I missed my daughter's 22nd birthday in June.
I missed my mother’s 80th birthday in June.
I missed my father’s day celebration in June.
I missed my son’s graduation from High School in June.
I missed my nephew's wedding in June.

I have not been able to be there for my little daughter who is only 10 months old, so I have missed 5 months with her already. I hope to be released before her 1st birthday comes. So if someone asked me if I believe ICE and GEO facilities should be shut down, my answer is yes, I say 10,000 times yes."
