INTERVIEW: Rep. Greg Casar: White House apology not enough after Austin teen's mistaken deportation

Published | Video Starts at 02:22

I'm calling for her to be brought back home and for this lawlessness from the Trump administration to stop. The Trump administration broke the law in deporting this 19 year old college student who'd done nothing wrong. The Trump administration broke the law when they deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia against the judge's orders. The Trump administration showed lawlessness when they shot and killed Renee Goode in Minneapolis. And now they're lawlessly trying to use the Department of Justice to prosecute Renee Goode's fiance. (02:22–02:29)
