Pleading and pressure from around the country did not stop the Trump Administration from deporting Alejandra Juarez, the wife of a Marine combat veteran and mother of two young American-born daughters.
“I am very disillusioned by how he (Trump) has treated my husband… I don’t know, maybe I deserve for it for the way I came in, but his wife is an immigrant. She had the luck to get papers easily, not me.”
“Mr. President by deporting me, you are not only making me suffer, you are making a veteran suffer.”
