The Trump administration says it’s targeting criminals for deportation. ICE arrested these 2 Las Cruces teens as they headed to work.

Pedro and Elizabeth – they asked that their real names not be used to protect their privacy – have pending asylum applications. They are authorized to be in the country while they await their hearing, and have the legal right to work here. Neither has a criminal record – they were never charged with illegal entry. ICE agents have not produced a warrant or stated why the family was pulled over.
