U.S. Citizen Deportation

ICE Deports US Citizen Despite Claim and Court Order; DHS Stands By Decision

Despite a federal court order blocking his removal, a man claiming U.S. citizenship was deported to Laos by ICE. The agency maintains that the individual, who had a criminal history, was a “criminal illegal alien” and did not have a valid claim to citizenship. The deported man’s legal team is now exploring all legal options for his return after an immigration judge ordered his removal in 2006. This incident has raised concerns, with legal experts suggesting it is a catastrophic failure of the immigration system.

American Citizens, Ages 2, 4, and 7, Deported from Louisiana

Three U.S. citizen children, including a 4-year-old with Stage 4 cancer, were deported to Honduras with their undocumented mothers after routine immigration check-ins. The families were apprehended in New Orleans and transported to Alexandria, Louisiana, before deportation, with limited to no contact with legal counsel or family. This action has raised serious due process concerns, particularly given the children’s citizenship and the lack of transparency regarding ICE’s deportation of U.S. citizens. A judge has expressed strong suspicion of a constitutional violation and scheduled a hearing to investigate.
