A four-year-old Mexican girl granted humanitarian parole by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security can stay for one year to receive life-saving medical treatment. This comes after her family faced deportation threats despite the girl's critical condition, which requires ongoing care that is unavailable in Mexico. Since arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border in 2023, she has been receiving intravenous nutrition due to short bowel syndrome. The use of humanitarian parole has been pivotal for migrants seeking urgent assistance, reflecting the complexities of immigration policies during different administrations.
'The girl was taken to a hospital upon arriving on at the U.S.-Mexico border with her mother in 2023 and released once she was stable enough.'
'Humanitarian parole... was widely used during the Biden administration to alleviate pressure on the U.S.-Mexico southern border.'
