ACLU ends ‘baseless’ lawsuit over deportation of a Honduran mother and her children
Story by Mike Heuer • 9h
May 10 (UPI) -- The American Civil Liberties Union has dropped its federal lawsuit accusing the Department of Homeland Security of illegally deporting a U.S. child and her Honduran mother and sister.
"The ACLU dropped its lawsuit on the false claims that DHS deported a U.S. citizen," DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said Saturday in a news release.
The news release referred to the federal lawsuit as "baseless lawfare" against the DHS and Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
"The truth is, and always has been, that the mother - who was in the country illegally - chose to bring her 2-year-old with her to Honduras when she was removed," McLaughlin said.
"The narrative that DHS is deporting American children is false and irresponsible."
