I’m live on the Senate floor calling on @DHSgov to keep Andres Magana Ortiz in the US. Watch at facebook.com/senatorhirono/
Just a few minutes ago, Andres was scheduled to report to ICE in Honolulu to be deported from his home of nearly 30 years.
Even now, @DHSgov Sec. Kelly can issue a stay to let Andres stay in the country while his application to receive legal status is processed
Let Andres stay in our country. Let his children have a father present in their lives. It’s not too late to keep this family together.
Andres' story speaks to the fear in immigrant communities. Even the “good hombres” as a Judge put it, are being torn away fr their families
This doesn’t have to be the case. 11 million ppl don't need to live in fear they will be deported at a moment’s notice. We need #CIR now
