Elvira Arrellano Refuses to Give Up!

By immigrationprof

Arrellano On Tuesday, recent U.S. deportee Elvira Arrellano met with Mexican President Felipe Calderon and asked the Mexican government to review the treatment of its emigrants by the United States. USA Today reports that, today, a Mexican Senate committee passed a measure urging President Calderon to send a diplomatic note to the United States protesting the deportation of Arrellano. The committee also approved a scholarship to help her 8-year-old U.S.-born son, Saul, who is an American citizen and stayed in the United States.
