Immigration advocates have protested the arrest of 30-year-old Liliana Cruz Mendez of Falls Church, who was taken into custody this month after going with her lawyer to a check-in appointment at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement office. Virginia Gov. They say her case is emblematic of tougher immigration policies under President Donald Trump. Cruz Mendez's children, 10 and 4, are U.S. citizens, and her husband has a work permit and is pursuing a green card, according to the advocacy group CASA. If President Trump and his administration are serious about making our nation safer, they will release Ms. McAuliffe acknowledged his pardon may not affect Cruz Mendez's case, but said he wants to send a clear message that tearing this family apart will not make our Commonwealth or our country safer.
