U.S. Rep. Betty McCollum of Minnesota wrote a letter of opposition this week to U.S. Secretary of State Michael Pompeo after learning of what she said was the Trump administrationâ€™s work to deport Hmong and Lao people who are not citizens.

The letter, dated Feb. 3, states that the administration is negotiating with the Lao Peopleâ€™s Democratic Republic on an agreement that would send undocumented Hmong and Lao persons in the U.S. back to the country of their birth.
