Anxiously awaiting his day in immigration court.

Jose Gutierrez and his family are anxiously awaiting their date in immigration court. Having left Venezuela to seek asylum, the only thing that seems certain is that he cannot return to his home country, even if it means starting life over in a minimum wage job. He makes his rounds six days a week as a maintenance worker for a fast food franchise, which is humbling for this former police officer.
