Deportation isn't something that is suddenly new.

You commit a felony, it does not matter who you are, you could be deported.

The word nobody wants to use, but you see if you are here illegally, that's the punishment, deportation.

The Obama administration has issued numerous orders essentially suspending deportations, prompting a major spike in illegal crossings.

What's done can't be undone.

We must make immigration a legal, orderly process to eliminate this issue, not further criminalize it.

I'll never understand how destroying families through deportation benefits our society. How we treat the undocumented says a great deal about us as a people and whether or not we'll continue to fulfill the fundamental American promise of equality and opportunity for all.

My father could have been deported because on his immigration application he said that he was a printer, obviously because he didn't want them to be checking his writings.
