The Angel Families Project
Countless families and individuals across the country have lost loved ones or have been victimized by illegal aliens. Crimes linked to immigration are not victimless incidents, but not everyone knows about the impact of these crimes. Lives have been lost, dreams have been shattered, and we want to share the victim's stories.
Names held, stories carried.
A growing memorial of Angel Families who have chosen to share their loved ones’ stories. Click any tile to read the family's words.

THIS is our WHY
Secretary Markwayne Mullin met with Angel Father Marcus Coleman and his daughter Dalilah at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) headquarters and spoke with Marcus about the importance of passing Dalilah’s Law, proposed legislation that would bar any state from granting commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs) to illegal aliens.
On June 20, 2024, Dalilah tragically sustained life-changing injuries after an Indian illegal alien driving a commercial 18-wheeler caused a multi-car pileup in the sanctuary state of California. He drove at an unsafe speed and failed to stop for traffic and a construction zone.
"I had the privilege of meeting with Dalilah Coleman and her parents, Marcus and Ileana,” said Secretary Mullin. “Dalilah is just one of countless victims of illegal alien truck drivers. President Trump is calling on Congress to pass Dalilah’s Law to make it impossible for illegal aliens to obtain commercial driver’s licenses. May God bless Dalilah and the entire Coleman family.”
