'They want us to break': Mayor Lurie staffer's life in limbo amid DACA delays
""Life feels like it's come to a standstill ... my life and my career feel like it's just come to a stop. I've been frozen in time.""
""We can't discuss the details of personnel matters, but Mayor Lurie and our entire team appreciate Jupiter and are grateful to serve alongside her.""
Jupiter Peraza, a 29-year-old community liaison for the Tenderloin neighborhood, lost her work authorization shortly after starting her job at City Hall. She is among 500,000 DACA participants experiencing delays in renewing their status, leading to job losses. Peraza expressed feelings of stagnation, stating her life feels frozen. Despite the challenges, she has support from the San Francisco Department of Human Resources and Rep. Nancy Pelosi's office, along with community fundraising efforts to assist her financially during this period.
