In February of 2025, she was arrested by Kenner Police Department in Louisiana for speeding, driving without insurance and driving without a license.
“When she was taken into ICE custody in April 2025, she chose to bring both children -- who are American citizens -- with her to Honduras and presented a valid United States passport for each child.”
The children have US passports and can come back any time. No mention of where the father is but maybe they can stay with him.

My husband and I are really debating this right now...can we afford it? Is it fair to have children in light of all the chaos the world is in? Would either of us be able to get more flexibility at work? Is our house in a good enough school district, and if not, can we afford alternative options? Can we afford to pay for college?
If I were in another country illegally, the last thing I would be doing is thinking about having kids. Sometimes I legitimately think I am crazy for weighing this decision so much.
That being said, I really do think an exception or arrangement of some sort should've been made for this poor woman, and of course her child who is blameless in all this.

Yes. Every day and twice on Sunday. She made the choice to jump the border and drop an anchor baby. That kid does not convey legal status to his mom.
So we punish the child for the sins of the mother? How Christian of you.
How is the child punished? 7 pages of rant but no one so far volunteered to bring the child back and adopt the child. This is how much you care for that child.
They don't want someone else to adopt the child. They want illegal mom to be given a free pass for legal residency and free healthcare despite doing nothing to earn either.
No, we expect people use their common sense and allow a mother to stay in the country with her child while she is receiving life saving care, or at least give the mother an opportunity to talk with her husband and doctors before making a decision on whether to leave without her.
I’d love some of you people who present to the world as holier than thou Catholics like JD Vance, to try imagining making your arguments to Jesus.
The US Citizen child has stage 4 cancer and lost access to medical care. That means they'll likely not live much longer. But ICE will be able to notch up its targets by deporting the child's mother, so the US citizen child can spend their last days in confusion and agony. Jesus would not approve.

If we took the kid from mom and gave her to dad, you'd be yelling about that too. And I'm not religious at all.

I want healthcare for all American citizens but it will never happen as long as we have endless immigration because there is no way to account for costs. It isn't right that people come across the border, sometimes already pregnant, and have multiple children in order to avail themselves of free services that US citizens cannot access for themselves despite paying taxes for a lifetime. I would love to offer a good life to everyone who wants to come here but it's not realistic. The current system is unsustainable. The people complaining here are mostly wealthy posters who are immune to the problems the rest of us deal with due to illegal immigration. They have access to great healthcare, private schools and gated communities. My kids attend schools that are literally falling apart while a ridiculous amount of money is spent on programs to support illegal immigrants in our pyramid. Every year my property tax bill goes up. We pay out of pocket for our healthcare and the costs are insane. Also, it isn't just poorer immigrants who abuse birth right citizenship. There are wealthy mothers from all over the world who come to the US specifically to give birth. Not wanting to subsidize all of this abuse with our tax dollars does not make us terrible people. No other civilized country in the world has the immigration issues that we do.
Stop voting for republicans. This country can more than afford to pay for healthcare for kids.
If the billionaires pay their fair share sure, but they don't. America is funded off the backs of the middle class and you're killing us.
Uhm, you should consider voting for Dems if that’s what you believe. Welcome!
DP here. I DO vote for Dems. I believe in affordable healthcare for ALL US citizens (not just the poor) and believe in investing in quality public education and affordable childcare for all US citizens.
AND, I believe in secure borders and deportation of those without legal status to be here. I don't believe any warm body should be allowed to claim asylum and roam the country free indefinitely while we decide what we are going to do with that. And I support a constitutional amendment to end birthright citizenship.
Sure hon.
Letting this mother stay with her potentially terminally ill child while they receive medical care is the right thing to do. If you disagree, it’s not about politics at this point, it’s about your values. Strongly suggest you look at those first and then vote for the party that is in alignment with those values.
I don’t think you’re being honest about who you voted for.
I don't care what you believe. Not every Dem supports illegal immigration. We wouldn't have to "let" her stay with her child if she didn't come here to begin with. That's on her.
She came here looking for asylum (legal!) and was taken into custody "last week after attending routine check-ins with Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Louisiana>" So doing everything correctly, not roaming the country freely.
You don't like asylum laws, fine. Change them. But the law is as it is now. You don't just deport people willy nilly who are following the correct steps!
And if you do so, you find a way to make sure the stage 4 cancer citizen and minor gets his meds because we are the United Freaking States of Merica, not some backwater authoritarian cruel regime
If she was deported, an immigration judge had to issue an order of deportation. Migrants with active asylum claims cannot be deported. You have no idea about the facts of her case, but since she was deported, her phony “asylum” claim was obviously denied. These people coming here from Central America are economic migrants. They are poor, not persecuted. We can’t take in all of Central and South America’s poor. We don’t have the resources. Biden’s disastrous open border policies put tremendous strain on local communities, schools, the health care system, etc. People are sick of our tax dollars being spent on illegal immigrants.
Why was she at her routine ICE check in? Is it because asylum claims take forever to process?
And don't even with ICE is waiting for judges. You know that's a lie.

NP. Child isn't being punished. The parent decides best course of action based on what options are available.
That’s not how this works. We ALL have agency in this. ICE and the administration have the ability to make exceptions, and I as a voter have the agency not to vote for cruelty. You’re looking for absolution but you’re not going to get it.
Biden's disastrous immigration policies got Trump elected. Don't forget that many Latinos also voted for Trump.
If you’re telling me with a straight face that the majority of voters are cool with what happened in this specific case, you are out of your mind.
They should be mad at the mother. She has children knowing she could be sent back and she decided to take him away from her medical team. Her attorneys can get that child back to the US for medical care.
I wish some would come right out and say that they don't believe in deporting those here illegally.
