A U.S. resident of 27 years who was deported to Mexico by the Trump administration has returned home to Sacramento. The woman was shielded from deportation under an Obama-era program allowing people brought to the U.S. as children to stay in the country if they generally stay out of trouble. But federal immigration officials deported her in February after she showed up for an immigration appointment. A federal judge then ordered her return to the U.S., saying her removal violated her due process rights. The events come amid President Donald Trump’s reshaping of immigration policy more broadly.
