Long Island father fighting deportation to El Salvador after 30 years in U.S.

Julio Cesar Acosta came to the U.S. and built a family — but recent changes in immigration policy might tear them apart.

Acosta, a Baldwin, Long Island, father of three who fled to the U.S. from El Salvador's civil war 30 years ago, is now fighting to stay in this country — after immigration authorities put him on the short list for deportation.

"They're taking away my other half," said 33-year-old Deysi Aldana, Acosta's partner, and mother of his children. "I don't know what I'm going to do."

Is there some law that is preventing him from taking his family to El Salvador where I assume he can drink and drive to his hearts content?

Repeated drunk driving without a license, and three kids without a marriage. May we assume that his “partner” is on welfare and food stamps?

Based on his age and the fact that he’s not married to the mother of his U.S. born children, I would propose that he has a legal wife in El Salvador, which would make showing up with his present family awkward.

Agree. Obama has not enforced immigration law for seven years, and now suddenly stories are popping up about "families being torn apart"?

Conveniently, "Good Cop" Hillary has already voiced her disagreement with the administration on this issue.

All of his children are U.S. citizens.

Gosh Julio, Kinda makes me wonder if you had followed the rules 30 years ago, you would not have to go back and start over.
But look at the bright side. Your kids are American citizens and may be alble to sponsor you. By 2021 you should be in legally. Well, that is if the illegals don’t jump ahead of you and the new el Presidente doesn’t change the current policies. If that happens, you will be in the same boat as the rest of us. FOOKED.

And before Obama GWB reduced interior and border enforcement AFTER 9/11.
Deportations fell from Clinton’s less than adequate enforcement.

"...changes in immigration policy might tear them apart."

The writer choosing to say 'tear them apart' is a tip-off that this is meant to tug at heart-strings.

Is there something that prevented him from rectifying the situation and and applying for legal status in the last thirty years? I knew of people that worked for me who had family members in the country illegally, the family members went back to their country of origin and applied for legal entry, it took a little time but they got it.
