‘It’s Been A Living Nightmare’–Wife of Deported Michigan Father Speaks Out
Cindy Garcia talks about her family’s ordeal and reacts to Gov. Snyder’s State of the State speech.
The Trump Administration’s crackdown on undocumented immigrants has hit close to home recently.
Jorge Garcia — a 39-year-old Lincoln Park father of two — was deported to Mexico last week. That’s despite having lived in the U.S. for 30 years without committing a crime.
Garcia’s wife Cindy was in the room for Gov. Rick Snyder’s State of the State address this week. She was there as a guest of state Rep. Cara Clemente (D-Lincoln Park).
WDET’s Jake Neher caught up with Cindy Garcia after the speech and asked her how her family is coping.
“It’s been hard. It’s been a living nightmare,” says Garcia. “But I’m living day by day by the grace of God.”
