The family filed a complaint against Customs and Border Protection and are seeking humanitarian parole to return to the U.S. with their daughter so she can continue brain cancer treatment. Dan believes the Trump Administration should focus on criminals who are here illegally instead of separating migrant families such as this Houston family.
