Two unrelated events occurred mid-week that underscored America’s fractured immigration system — and how our broken politics get in the way of solving anything.
The first happened Wednesday, when two brothers from El Salvador were deported on the very day the younger one planned to start college in North Carolina on a soccer scholarship. Lizandro Claros Saravia came here with his older brother, Diego, when he was 11 years old, but neither he nor Diego had proper papers. Consequently, both boys were adjudged to have entered the U.S. illegally. As deportation proceedings dragged on, they attended school, played sports, and blended into their suburban Maryland community.
