US President Donald Trump has aroused expulsion efforts after returning to the White House in January after successfully promising a promise to take illegal immigration.
The fight against immigration includes controversial action, such as the targeting of students from protesting and sending people to a notorious prison in El Salvador.

Visa extension is forbidden over the color of the ink, the family says
Callejas was born and grew in Montreal after his family moved from Colombia. He started a swimsuit in Canada in 2012 and got a boost, but when his father became bad, he interrupted his dream to help him.
After his father’s death in 2020, Callejas began his efforts to build a swimsuit company. The family said they would make a few runway exhibitions in Florida over the years and saw that his fashion line was a real opportunity to develop in the state.
He was even invited to attend Miami Swim Week last year.
He bought a property in Florida, his mother said and lived a modest life while working to build a brand.
The family said they were in the United States to be in immigrant visa for people with special skills that were expected to expire in March. They said he was applying for an extension in February, but it was rejected by a technical reason by signing the document around the color of the ink.
Canadian families arrested by US immigration and ICE (ICE) say they are furious in the treatment of their loved ones and fight for their liberation. According to Canada’s global issues, many Canadians are currently in arrest centers.
The family said that Callejas re -ordered that the matter was resolved.
Callejas was arrested on March 28 after the battery after the family said that there was a dispute with his then boyfriend. The family says that Callejas maintains his innocence in the situation and said he was defending himself.
After sending the warranties, his family said that Callejas was taken to stay.
A representative of the ICE reported that Callejas came to the United States for an immigrant visitor visa and violated his access conditions. Ice said it was “arrested to the end of its immigration procedure”.
Cano said that his daughter’s arrest has been a “nightmare” for the family.
“Every time I open my eyes, it’s not a real life,” Cano said, holding tears.
The family said that Callejas had been transferred to at least three different spaces. Funding is exhausted as they try to get legal representation. They said that one lawyer pays $ 5,000 paperwork.
As Callejas spend more time in arrest, his mental health also suffers, the family said.
Canos said he wants his daughter to be able to defend himself in court. His next accusation of crime is on Monday.
Cano said that once it was resolved, they want Callejas to leave the United States of their own will so that he can terminate his visa application from Canada and continue his dreams of a swimsuit line.
Global Affairs Canada reported that it could not provide information on certain cases due to the concerns about privacy.
