· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
Democratic members of Congress are launching an investigation into the Trump administration's efforts to deport military personnel and their families. This follows reports that over 50 spouses and parents of active-duty service members have been detained by immigration authorities. In a letter to the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Defense, and the Department of Veterans Affairs, more than 60 lawmakers expressed concerns about the potential coordination between these agencies to deport military families. They argue that such actions undermine military readiness and morale. The Pentagon declined to comment, while DHS emphasized that military service does not automatically confer legal immigration status.
