White House border czar Tom Homan said that illegal immigrant parents of children who are born in the United States are not immune from being deported.

“Having a U.S. citizen child doesn’t make you immune from our laws of the country,” Homan told CBS News’ “Face the Nation” on April 27. “American families get separated every day by law enforcement. Thousands of times a day, when a parent gets put in jail, the child can’t go with them.”
