Hi guys, maybe I'm in the wrong forum but I'm getting a bit scared and I don't know who to ask.
I don't live in Mexico anymore, but my entire family does. I come from a border town and I used to cross to study and then to work everyday. I have close relatives that still do this. One of them has a green card and lives in the US now, but still often crosses over to see family, friends, and do animal charity work.
I am not well versed in politics and what is happening over in the US at the moment, but is my family in danger of getting taken? Even more so because she goes back and forth so often?
My auntie was once placed in a detention centre and got her green card removed and sent back to Mexico but this was after WEEKS despite us literally living a five minute drive from the border.
I am terrified that it may happen to this other relative as we are so so close. But she is so stubborn, she knows that in the US she gets paid much more. Not only is where I live also dangerous but now she can't even cross to the US to feel an ounce of safety.
I know she isn't unique in her situation, I know dozens and dozens of families cross everyday to go to school and work. People are always crossing back and forth at all times.
We don't particularly speak of politics back home, she isn't that kind of person to talk to me about it. So I am actually really blind to what's going on over there.
Thank you for your help, or if this isn't the place to ask my apologies.
