A Honduran woman whose image went viral after she fled tear gas fired by U.S. authorities near the San Diego border on Nov. 25 was released on parole at the San Ysidro Port of Entry with her five children Friday evening, while their asylum proceedings unfold.

Maria Meza and her children — five-year-old twin girls, a three-year-old boy, a 12-year-old girl and a 14-year-old girl — walked briskly toward a line of taxis at the San Ysidro Port of Entry after a brief stop at McDonald’s for some snacks. The Honduran mother wore a GPS-monitoring ankle bracelet.

"I don't want to talk right now because I'm nervous," Meza said.

Meza was part of a large group of migrants who traveled from Honduras to seek asylum in the U.S. Her attorneys said the family plans to travel to Baltimore on Saturday to stay with relatives.

The family must report to immigration authorities starting Jan. 3, with a court date on Jan. 31. The six Hondurans were released after three days in detention at the port.

Two members of Congress escorted the family to ask for asylum on Tuesday after they were allegedly being stalked by right-wing activists who thought the tear-gas photo had been staged.

As the taxi pulled away from the port en route to a hotel, Meza’s children waved and smiled from the backseat.

what happened to......

In an announcement Thursday, DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said her agency would immediately invoke Section 235(b)(2)(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. That will allow federal immigration officials to return illegal border crossers arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border back to Mexico while they await their immigration hearings in the U.S.

12/20/18

U.S. to send some migrants back to Mexico as immigration cases proceed: Nielsen

Send them all back to Central America.

LET HOLLYWOOD USE THEIR MONEY TO GO BUILD HOMES, BUSINESSES AND CREATE JOBS FOR THEM!

Use GoFundMe and the Music Industry to raise money to do fund raisers.

San Diego TV news just said she and the kids are headed to Boston where she has relatives. She has to check in with the court by Jan. 3 to confirm she is in Boston and she has a court hearing late in Jan. (I didn't hear the date.)

Is her family here illegally? Deport them ALL.

No taxpayer money to these people!

We have our own homeless, Veteran's and Senior's to take care of.
