    From the article:

    In addition to Muñoz, USA TODAY has confirmed through attorneys, family members and documents that ICE has detained for weeks:

    • a woman in her 30s with proof of valid permanent legal residency,

    …

    David Rozas, an immigration attorney representing Muñoz, agreed: “Anyone who isn’t a legal permanent resident or U.S. citizen is at risk – period."

    Even an immigration attorney can’t keep up with how rapidly the fascists are escalating their persecution.

    Soon even citizenship won’t be enough to stop people who ICE doesn’t like the look of from getting deported, if it hasn’t happened already.

      Does a ten year old citizen whose parents were undocumented getting thrown out of the US alongside her parents count? Because I saw a news story about that happening recently.
