A sudden mother and daughter. Heidy Sánchez, Cuban caretaker, was expelled to her country of origin, while she had lived in the United States for six years and her 17 -month -old daughter are Americans. In question, the new immigration policy carried out by the Trump administration that wants to be firmer about immigrants who have illegally entered the US territory.
Upon arriving in 2019 in the United States through Mexico, Heidy Sánchez says he had a scheduled appointment with the US administration to enter the US territory. However, he said he could not go there due to the threats of the posters.
Cuban claims to have been able to enter the United States and has met with administration agents who explained that he was in danger in Mexico, when he had to stay there within the framework of the program “Stay in Mexico” launched by Donald Trump.
After spending nine months in the immigration department, it is finally released and established in Florida. He studied there to become a caregiver and marries an American of Cuban origin with whom he has a granddaughter, called Kailyn. From this life built away from his country of origin, Heidy Sánchez has a moved memory.
“I don’t know if it was the American dream, but it was my dream, my family,” he told CNN.
“Don’t take my daughter”
But his life changes in a short time. Contacted last April by the immigration and customs application (ICE), think about going to a simple routine meeting, but is in police custody. Then suddenly separates from Kailyn.
“I told them: ‘Don’t take my daughter.’ They never told me if I could take her with me,” recalls Heidy Sánchez Pain.
Now, the caregiver is back in Cuba, far from her husband and daughter, with whom she must be satisfied with telephone discussions. “I have to pull my milk for my daughter and throw it in the trash. It hurts a lot,” he laments.
For your daughter, the situation is incomprehensible. “Her father puts her recordings of my songs so she can fall asleep,” says Heidy Sánchez.
The administration ensures that he could leave with his daughter
His lawyer Claudia Cañizares believes that her client “did not deserve to be expelled as it was,” while breastfeeding a small child and suffers from epilepsy. In particular, deplore how your client has been transferred to several places of detention, without her being able to see her defense, before her expulsion.
For its part, the Department of Internal Security states that Cuban was perfectly free to take his daughter with her when he had to leave the American soil.
“The Trump administration offers parents that they are illegally in the country the opportunity to express themselves,” adds the department. The latter adds that illegal immigrants can always, after their departure from the United States, “return legally and correctly to live the American dream.”
From now on, he would probably take years in Heidy Sánchez before she could return to the United States legally. “I suffer, but I know he suffers even more,” he said, thinking about his daughter first.
