Migrants here on medical visas received letters telling them their status has ended and they have 33 days to leave the country. The administration is making vague noises about an appeals process, but that’s not what the letters say.
One 16-year-old boy here for a serious medical condition said in tears that he will die if he is sent back to his home country, which lacks treatment facilities.
Step by step, making it less noticeable, the administration is ending policies requiring the humane treatment of immigrants. Family separation; children in cages without education, proper sanitation or comfort; adults kept in chilled, terribly crowded conditions.
