More Humane Approach to Deportation

This is an editorial piece by a well-received news person with DallasNews. The article cites the Swift Meatpacking ICE raid, in which those deported were treated as less then citizens, and were treated inhumanely. This piece cites the idea that family members of undocumented workers come home to house's lacking possessions, those being taken by ICE.

The piece ends with the author calling for a more humane way to deal with undocumented workers during the deportation process. While this piece is slightly fluff, I thought it was interesting because DallasNews is a generally more conservative news source, and yet this piece is more progressive on the idea of equality.
