Deported After Serving
Description
Host John Carlos Frey speaks with Austin Kocher, a political and legal geographer and Navy veteran (1999–2003), about the deeply underreported issue of immigrant veterans being detained and deported under the current administration. Kocher explains that while this problem predates the Trump administration, deportations of veterans have accelerated dramatically in recent years.
Kocher argues that the current administration has eliminated even the modest administrative protections that previous administrations — both Republican and Democratic — had extended to veteran cases, leaving immigrant veterans with virtually no shield against deportation.
