Cuban Woman’s Husband Deported After She Voted for Trump
Liyian Páez, a Cuban-American and Trump voter, feels betrayed after her husband, Alían Méndez Aguilar, was deported despite Trump’s campaign promise to deport only criminals. Aguilar, who had a prior deportation order, was detained and deported to Cuba despite being married to Páez and raising her paraplegic son and their young daughter. This deportation leaves Páez struggling financially and emotionally, forcing her to seek government assistance to reunite her family. The family’s separation highlights the human cost of immigration policies and the broken promises felt by those affected.
