The Trump administration is pushing to deport a 12-year-old boy living in Anchorage, Alaska, all because a DNA test has not been provided to prove his American citizenship. This case, per Newsweek, highlights the growing complexities surrounding citizenship status in the United States.
The boy was born to a Nigerian mother and a father who served in the U.S. military. Despite having significant evidence of this relationship, the government is currently moving forward with removal proceedings.
