- ICE deported breastfeeding mother, separating her from U.S. citizen infant — Immigration and Customs Enforcement deported Heidy Sánchez, a Cuban-born mother of a one-year-old still breastfeeding, leaving the child in the United States with the father, a U.S. citizen. Sánchez was detained when she appeared for a scheduled check-in with ICE.
- ICE deported three U.S. citizen children to Honduras with their arrested mothers — Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents detained two mothers during routine immigration check-ins and deported them to Honduras, taking with them three U.S. citizen children aged 2, 4, and 7. One child had Stage 4 cancer and was sent without medication or medical consultation despite agents being informed of the medical need. The mothers were not permitted to speak with family or lawyers before deportation. ICE claimed the mothers chose to take their children, but the refusal to allow legal counsel contact means only agents' accounts exist of how the decision was made.
