ADVANCE FOR USE FRIDAY, DEC. 23, 2016 AND THEREAFTER-This Aug. 23, 2015 photo provided by his family via the Migrant Farmworker Justice Project shows Enrique Cabriales. Tired of watching his mother struggle with untreated diabetes and high blood pressure, Cabriales resolved to do something. And so, at 27, he did what so many of his compatriots before him have done: He signed on to do farm labor in the United States. On Nov. 6, 2016, he, Jose Rangel Chavez, and four others were killed on their way back to Mexico when their bus hit a concrete support on Interstate 40 in North Little Rock. When the crash investigations began, a pattern of alleged safety violations by Vasquez Citrus & Hauling of Lake Placid, Fla., emerged. (Family Photo/Migrant Farmworker Justice Project via AP)
