The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement have now deported Jorge Garcia, a 39-year-old landscaper from Lincoln Park, Michigan after staying in the U.S for 30 years.
He had came to the U.S when he was 10 by an undocumented family member, but he stayed in the U.S, and now has a wife and two kids who are all U.S citizens. He was escorted out of the U.S with his wife, Cindy Garcia, why their daughter, Soleil cried on his shoulder.
Jorge Garcia has been given an order by the immigration court to leave the country in 2009, but under the Obama administration, he was given stays of removal, but the Trump administration campaigned to chase away undocumented immigrants from the U.S, hence, the crackdown. In November, he was told to leave the country for Mexico.
Jorge Garcia age range does not qualify him for the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA) which allows the children of undocumented immigrants before age 16 and were born after June 15, 1981 to legally work and study in the U.S
Jorge Garcia will likely be banned from entering the U.S for another 10 years. On Monday morning, Jorge was removed from the U.S, accompanied by the security at Detroit Metropolitan Airport.
