Happy #LaborDay! Working people helped build this country and make it great. The labor movement arose to ensure that they got their fair share of the benefits of all that hard work. And every single American benefited from their brave and successful struggle. But the fight is not over. 1/3

Nothing says 'pro-family' like deporting a two-year-old

ABC News
Judge says he has strong suspicion 2-year-old U.S. citizen was deported 'with no meaningful process'

A federal judge on Friday said he has a strong suspicion that the Trump administration deported a 2-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras "with no meaningful process."

The U.S. citizen, identified in the filings as "V.M.L," was initially detained with her undocumented mother and sister at a routine immigration check-in in New Orleans earlier this week.

After the father of the 2-year-old learned that his family was detained, his lawyer called immigration officials to inform them that V.M.L is a U.S. citizen and could not be deported, according to court documents.
