Uh-huh
“Deportation is no way to thank the people who put their lives on the line to serve and defend our country," Gallego said in a written statement. "The fact that the Trump administration has ‘no idea’ how many veterans they may have deported and is breaking their own policies to expedite deporting veterans is deeply troubling.
He cited his own military experience in the same statement.
"As a Marine Corps combat veteran, I am appalled to imagine the immigrants that stood next to me on the battlefield being separated from their families and the country that they love and fought for," he said. "The Trump administration must take immediate action to correct this grave problem.”
In a letter to the GAO, Department of Homeland Security program manager Jim Crumpacker said ICE recognizes that veterans warrant special consideration of their military service before a decision is made about whether they should be placed in deportation proceedings or deported.
But Crumpacker said that in "100 percent" of the cases reviewed by the GAO investigation, veterans were deported because of felony convictions "related to drugs, sexual abuse, of which 18 involved minors; firearms; explosives or explosive material; kidnapping or terrorist threats."
Stock disputed DHS's claim that ICE deports only veterans convicted of serious crimes.
"That is actually not true," she said.
She said she has represented veterans who were placed in deportation proceedings who hadn't committed any crimes, or had only committed minor crimes, including a Marine veteran who ICE tried to deport over punching someone in a bar fight before he joined the military."
