Green Card Holder For 58 Years Faces Deportation

Victor Avila, a 66-year-old long-term U.S. green card holder who legally immigrated in 1967 and has held a green card since, was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), according to a GoFundMe. Avila was returning home visiting his son who is a member of the U.S. Airforce when he was detained.

Newsweek has reached out to ICE and to Kiwan & Chambers, the law firm Avila works for, for comment.
