Trump Admin Revokes Parole for Ill Child Facing Deportation | JQJO

The Trump administration revoked the humanitarian parole of a 4-year-old Mexican girl with a life-threatening condition receiving treatment in California. Attorneys say the girl, who suffers from short bowel syndrome, will die without the specialized care unavailable in Mexico. While a Homeland Security official stated the family isn't actively being deported and a new parole application is pending, the family faces potential deportation. The girl's mother described the positive impact of the US treatment on her daughter's life.
