ICE Detains Husband of U.S. Citizen Over Traffic Stop Amid Immigration Crackdown

Texas law enforcement agents stopped a family for a "traffic lane issue" and proceeded to report the driver to ICE. The man, whose identity has yet to be revealed, is married to a U.S. citizen and has two U.S.-born children. According to the family's immigration lawyer, he has no criminal history and is in the process of obtaining his green card.

"The husband is currently undocumented," Kate Lincoln-Goldfinch, the family's immigration lawyer, shared on social media. "Because of his manner of entry, he has to go through the consular process to get legal status." According to Lincoln-Goldfinch, the consular green card process takes anywhere between two to six years.
