Prize-winner, Mark Fiore, who the Wall Street Journal has called “the undisputed guru of the form,” creates animated political cartoons in San Francisco, where his work has been featured regularly on the San Francisco Chronicle’s web site, SFGate.com. His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.","avatar":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fc4e2a612b15b67bad0c6f0e1db4ca9b?s=600&d=blank&r=g","twitter":"MarkFiore","facebook":null,"instagram":"https://www.instagram.com/markfiore/?hl=en","linkedin":null,"sites":[{"site":"arts","roles":["contributor"]},{"site":"news","roles":["editor"]},{"site":"futureofyou","roles":["editor"]},{"site":"science","roles":["editor"]}],"headData":{"title":"Mark Fiore | KQED","description":"KQED News Cartoonist","ogImgSrc":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fc4e2a612b15b67bad0c6f0e1db4ca9b?s=600&d=blank&r=g","twImgSrc":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fc4e2a612b15b67bad0c6f0e1db4ca9b?s=600&d=blank&r=g"},"isLoading":false,"link":"/author/markfiore"},"fjhabvala":{"type":"authors","id":"8659","meta":{"index":"authors_1591205172","id":"8659","found":true},"name":"Farida Jhabvala Romero","firstName":"Farida","lastName":"Jhabvala Romero","slug":"fjhabvala","email":"fjhabvala@kqed.org","display_author_email":true,"staff_mastheads":["news"],"title":"KQED Contributor","bio":"\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Farida Jhabvala Romero is a Labor Correspondent for KQED.

The youngest, Priscila Ruiz Ramírez, 13, graduated from elementary school. Nathan Gutiérrez Ramírez, 20, and Ignacio Gutiérrez Ramírez, 19, graduated from high school. Elena graduated from community college.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Priscila, now in seventh grade, heard he was coming back, the first thing she said was, “Papi, I want you to come to my graduation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ruiz Arévalos met his wife when her three oldest children were 8, 6 and 5 years old, and he has helped raise them ever since. They later had another daughter together, Priscila.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ruiz, who is a U.S. citizen, applied for a green card for her husband. Ruiz Arévalos had been living in the U.S. as an undocumented immigrant since he was 17. He went to Mexico in May 2019 for the last step in his application, an interview at the U.S. Consulate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before he left, he had already cleared one hurdle. People who crossed the border without papers and then lived here for more than a year can’t get a green card easily, even if they are married to a U.S. citizen. They can be banned from the country for 10 years unless they can get a waiver by proving that being forced to stay outside the U.S. would cause “extreme hardship” for a U.S. citizen spouse or parent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services approved the waiver for Ruiz Arévalos. He and his wife had argued that it would be an extreme hardship for her to care alone for their four children, especially Priscila, who was born prematurely, has developmental delays and requires continuous medical care, including speech, occupational and physical therapy. In addition, Nathan suffered from severe depression.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But before Ruiz Arévalos’ appointment at the consulate, the Trump administration had changed the rules for something called the “public charge” policy. Under the Trump administration, consulate officers had begun asking whether an applicant’s family members, including U.S. citizens, had ever used public benefits, including food stamps and Medicaid. While Ruiz Arévalos had never used benefits, his youngest daughter, Priscila, has received Supplemental Security Income — provided to lower-income disabled people — since she was born. All the children have used food stamps and Medi-Cal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before President Donald Trump changed the “public charge” policy, benefits used by U.S. citizen children wouldn’t have counted against Ruiz Arévalos, and having a fiscal sponsor — a friend who agreed to support him if needed — would have been enough proof he wouldn’t become a burden on the government. But under the new policy, the consulate officers told Ruiz Arévalos he was ineligible for a green card because he was likely to become a “public charge,” dependent on the government. They said he would need another sponsor, preferably a relative, but instead of waiting for him to turn in the new paperwork, they canceled his application.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between Oct. 1, 2018, and Sept. 30, 2019, \u003ca href=\"https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-statistics/annual-reports/report-of-the-visa-office-2019.html\">consulate officials refused almost 21,000 people\u003c/a> applying for immigrant visas based on the revised public charge policy. Under the prior policy, only about 3,000 people a year had been denied.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/cspq1/3/\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In March 2021, under President Joe Biden, the State Department restored the public charge policy in place before 2018: Non-cash benefits like Medicaid and food stamps cannot be counted against a green card applicant, nor can any benefits used by children or other relatives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later that summer Ruiz Arévalos applied again. The process, which used to take a few months, now takes more than a year, due to backlogs that were aggravated by the COVID-19 pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, Armanda Ruiz appealed to as many elected officials as she could, including meeting with Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s staff in Washington, D.C.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November 2022, Ruiz Arévalos finally received another waiver and then an appointment at the U.S. Consulate for a second green card interview in January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As he entered the U.S. Consulate in Ciudad Juárez for his second green card interview, Ruiz Arévalos wasn’t sure what to expect.[aside postID=\"forum_2010101892520,news_11942414,news_11937017\" label=\"Related Posts\"]“I was scared they would come up with something I wasn’t expecting again, and it would be delayed again,” Ruiz Arévalos said in Spanish. “My wife told me, ‘It’s set.’ But I told her, no, not until I’m at the border will I be able to say it’s over. I don’t know what’s going to happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When his passport arrived in the mail a few weeks later, he stared in shock. There, pasted into the passport was the proof that he had permanent residency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first thing he did was go buy a bus ticket to Los Banos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His return brings relief especially to Elena, who dropped out of college after freshman year so she could work to help provide for her younger siblings. She joined the Army Reserve and worked part time as a cashier and at a tomato-packing plant while continuing to take classes part time at community college.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Ruiz Arévalos had been able to come back in 2019, Elena would likely have graduated from UC Merced last year. Instead, she earned an associate degree at Merced College. She’s been putting off continuing her studies at a four-year college. Now that her dad is back, she’s finally considering studying for a bachelor’s degree in communications or Spanish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To me it’s like, now I don’t have to stress out this year and be like, OK, let’s just jump into law enforcement, let’s just jump into construction,” said Elena. “Now I can slow down, think about what I like before I jump in. Because honestly, I was panicking. But right now I’m like, OK, I can slow down and not rush myself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nathan is now finishing up an associate degree and has applied to transfer to UC Merced in the fall, to major in psychology or sociology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t really have a specific goal with that in mind, but I do want to help other people,” Nathan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11944385\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/f0ac3949-f89c-4018-afbc-cc22b7dc0c86-1024x768-1.jpg\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11944385\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/f0ac3949-f89c-4018-afbc-cc22b7dc0c86-1024x768-1-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"A man wearing a black t-shirt and sun glasses has his arm around a younger man wearing an orange t-shirt who is holding a cooking tool over a grill outside.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/f0ac3949-f89c-4018-afbc-cc22b7dc0c86-1024x768-1-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/f0ac3949-f89c-4018-afbc-cc22b7dc0c86-1024x768-1-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/f0ac3949-f89c-4018-afbc-cc22b7dc0c86-1024x768-1-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/f0ac3949-f89c-4018-afbc-cc22b7dc0c86-1024x768-1.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ignacio Gutiérrez Ramírez grills with his dad, José Ruiz Arévalos. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Armanda Ruiz)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Ignacio was a top student in high school, courted by Harvard and Yale.

Because it’s not just us that’s going through this, it’s a lot of other people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erin Quinn, senior staff attorney at the Immigrant Legal Resource Center, a nonprofit based in San Francisco, said Ruiz Arévalos’ case highlights the impact of Trump’s changes to public charge policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This really shows the harsh realities for families that are separated and the real tangible impact it has, from education to moving forward with life to economic stability,” said Quinn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quinn said most immigrant families are not aware that the Biden administration rolled back the Trump administration’s changes to the public charge rule.

The youngest, Priscila Ruiz Ramírez, 13, graduated from elementary school. Nathan Gutiérrez Ramírez, 20, and Ignacio Gutiérrez Ramírez, 19, graduated from high school. Elena graduated from community college.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Priscila, now in seventh grade, heard he was coming back, the first thing she said was, “Papi, I want you to come to my graduation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ruiz Arévalos met his wife when her three oldest children were 8, 6 and 5 years old, and he has helped raise them ever since. They later had another daughter together, Priscila.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ruiz, who is a U.S. citizen, applied for a green card for her husband. Ruiz Arévalos had been living in the U.S. as an undocumented immigrant since he was 17. He went to Mexico in May 2019 for the last step in his application, an interview at the U.S. Consulate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before he left, he had already cleared one hurdle. People who crossed the border without papers and then lived here for more than a year can’t get a green card easily, even if they are married to a U.S. citizen. They can be banned from the country for 10 years unless they can get a waiver by proving that being forced to stay outside the U.S. would cause “extreme hardship” for a U.S. citizen spouse or parent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services approved the waiver for Ruiz Arévalos. He and his wife had argued that it would be an extreme hardship for her to care alone for their four children, especially Priscila, who was born prematurely, has developmental delays and requires continuous medical care, including speech, occupational and physical therapy. In addition, Nathan suffered from severe depression.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But before Ruiz Arévalos’ appointment at the consulate, the Trump administration had changed the rules for something called the “public charge” policy. Under the Trump administration, consulate officers had begun asking whether an applicant’s family members, including U.S. citizens, had ever used public benefits, including food stamps and Medicaid. While Ruiz Arévalos had never used benefits, his youngest daughter, Priscila, has received Supplemental Security Income — provided to lower-income disabled people — since she was born. All the children have used food stamps and Medi-Cal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before President Donald Trump changed the “public charge” policy, benefits used by U.S. citizen children wouldn’t have counted against Ruiz Arévalos, and having a fiscal sponsor — a friend who agreed to support him if needed — would have been enough proof he wouldn’t become a burden on the government. But under the new policy, the consulate officers told Ruiz Arévalos he was ineligible for a green card because he was likely to become a “public charge,” dependent on the government. They said he would need another sponsor, preferably a relative, but instead of waiting for him to turn in the new paperwork, they canceled his application.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between Oct. 1, 2018, and Sept. 30, 2019, \u003ca href=\"https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-statistics/annual-reports/report-of-the-visa-office-2019.html\">consulate officials refused almost 21,000 people\u003c/a> applying for immigrant visas based on the revised public charge policy.

The process, which used to take a few months, now takes more than a year, due to backlogs that were aggravated by the COVID-19 pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, Armanda Ruiz appealed to as many elected officials as she could, including meeting with Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s staff in Washington, D.C.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November 2022, Ruiz Arévalos finally received another waiver and then an appointment at the U.S. Consulate for a second green card interview in January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As he entered the U.S. Consulate in Ciudad Juárez for his second green card interview, Ruiz Arévalos wasn’t sure what to expect.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"postid":"forum_2010101892520,news_11942414,news_11937017","label":"Related Posts "},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>“I was scared they would come up with something I wasn’t expecting again, and it would be delayed again,” Ruiz Arévalos said in Spanish. “My wife told me, ‘It’s set.’ But I told her, no, not until I’m at the border will I be able to say it’s over. I don’t know what’s going to happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When his passport arrived in the mail a few weeks later, he stared in shock.

Now that her dad is back, she’s finally considering studying for a bachelor’s degree in communications or Spanish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To me it’s like, now I don’t have to stress out this year and be like, OK, let’s just jump into law enforcement, let’s just jump into construction,” said Elena. “Now I can slow down, think about what I like before I jump in.

This group makes up the majority of families that advocates and lawyers are still searching for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabraw asked for a written declaration from Trump administration officials by Jan. 13, that explains \"what happened and why, and how is it that the EOIR databases were identified at this late date.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The late disclosure of contact information has also raised questions about whether the federal government may be holding onto \u003cem>more\u003c/em> contact information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You know, I keep thinking, 'Well, OK, this time they've given us all the information,' and then it turns out that there are more families that have been separated, or more contact information,\" Gelernt said. \"I suspect that there is still some more information out there.
