Blumenthal Statement on Miriam Martinez
Statement
Issues: Immigration
U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) issued the following statement regarding news that ICE has denied the latest request for a stay in the deportation of Miriam Martinez.
"I am working with Miriam Martinez's attorney to fight this cruel and irrational deportation. Deporting Miriam will rip apart her family, needlessly leaving a child with serious medical needs without her mother. I urge the Trump Administration not to inflict this needless pain and allow Miriam to remain here with her family where she belongs. This latest decision is yet another symptom of an immigration system that has lost all reason and rationality. I will continue to fight for comprehensive immigration reform to bring lasting change to this badly broken system."
