A prominent pro-immigration and pro-abortion activist was on ordered to be deported, based on her criminal record, by an Arizona judge.
Alejandra Pablos, 33, told the Washington Post that she would appeal Judge Thomas Michael O’Leary's decision to send her back to her native Mexico. She said that her life would be in danger there because of her activism to promote abortion rights.
“La lucha sigue,†she said, meaning, "The struggle continues."
