You Deported an American Child with Cancer Without Due Process
To: Pres. Trump
From: A verified voter in Marquette, MI
April 27
On April 25, three U.S. citizen children from two families were forcibly removed from Louisiana by Immigration and Customs Enforcement after being detained during routine check-ins.
One of them — a four-year-old with Stage 4 cancer — was expelled without medication, without access to doctors, and without any opportunity to assert their rights.
History will not be kind to a leader who weaponizes immigration enforcement against American children — especially those fighting for their lives.
It is an unspeakable cruelty, and a betrayal of our nation’s most basic values, for a president to permit the deportation of a gravely ill child without due process or medical care.
