The Government reports that over 250 US military veterans have been placed in immigration removal proceedings in the last 6 years. With support by the Pulitzer Center, WBEZ reporter Maria Ines Zamudio spoke with more than a dozen of US veterans currently residing in Tijuana as they try to raise awareness of their situation, find ways to return home to their families, and gain access to health services for military veterans. Jill Hopkins spoke with Maria about their cases, why and on what grounds can US veterans be deported, and whether there's any hope of bring them back home.
