In Texas, a Houston father is fighting to reunite his family after Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, deported his wife and four children to Mexico last week. Two of the children — infant twins — are U.S. citizens, born in September. The father, Federico Arellano Jr., is also a U.S. citizen. The mother, Christina Salazar, and the couple’s four children were apparently lured by ICE to a meeting point, where they were arrested and forced onto a plane to Reynosa, Mexico. They were targeted for deportation after Salazar and their older children missed an immigration hearing because she was recovering from her emergency cesarean section, of which the family had notified the court. This comes as President-elect Trump has repeatedly vowed to end birthright citizenship.
