The American who voted for Trump and is now fighting because they let his deported wife return

Since Donald Trump came to power in the United States, Thousands of Latin American migrants have been deported, regardless of the link they have forged with the North American country.. Some of the people who had to return to their home country already had a family with US citizens.

Of the 1.2 million people who do not have legal permission to reside in the country, 1 in 10 is married to a US citizen. However, at the time of the deportations, This was not a factor that prompted the migration authorities to make the decision to leave their families together.

This was the case of Ashton and Cecilia. Marriage that lCam 16 months raising his six-year-old son, opposite sides of the border, between Mexico and the United States.

After 20 years working in the North of the continent and after marrying Jason, an American, Cecilia had to return to Guadalajara because she was not allowed to live longer in the countryside which had already become their home.

The situation surprised her and her husband, Jason, a native of Georgia, since he was one of the 60,541,308 voters who placed Donald Trump as presidentdespite strong immigration policy proposals that he had promised during the campaign.

Jason Rochester did not believe that the deportations would affect his family. Interviewed by Los Angeles time, the UPS dispatcher said that considered that only "bad men", people with criminal recordsthey would be the ones who were expelled from their country.

But the reality was different. Two years after taking over by its current president of the US administration, Cecilia González accompanies her son to go to school and the afternoon, but only through the screen of an iPad.

Even though Jason tried to ask by all means to let her come back. Nothing worked. Even the requested humanitarian permit was refused.

Last year his son Ashton was diagnosed with kidney cancer. In chemotherapy, he needed his mother at his side, so his father decided to publish his situation on social networks.

He thought he could have Donald Trump read what they were going through and help them get back, Cecilia. But that did not happen like that. Republicans have filled their message on Facebook with empathy for the childbut not because of his marriage to Cecilia.

However, seeing how his wife and son are bored, has struggled to reform his country's migration policiesbut only for migrants with links to the United States. The wall does not cause discomfort.

When asked if he thinks voting for Donald Trump is a bad decision, he doubts it. Although he accepts that this has had a negative impact on his family, He thinks that by choosing a president, you can not think of how this will only affect him personally. "You must have a bigger picture," he told Los Angeles Time.
