March 7, 2026 • Google News World

A California official has called on the Trump administration to return a deaf Bay Area boy and his family, who were deported to Colombia after an immigration check-in. The family, including the child with a disability, was taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in San Francisco three days prior.

According to reports, the family’s deportation was carried out without their hearing aids, which are essential for the deaf boy’s communication needs. The state superintendent of education has expressed concern over the situation, stating that the child’s absence from school will have a significant impact on his education.

The official is urging the Trump administration to take immediate action to return the family to the United States and provide them with the necessary support and accommodations for the deaf boy’s disability.

In related news, the family was reportedly arrested during an immigration check-in at their home in Hayward. The arrest led to their deportation to Colombia, where they have been living without access to essential services or support.

The incident has sparked concerns among advocacy groups and community leaders, who are calling on the Trump administration to take responsibility for the family’s situation and provide them with the necessary assistance.

The official’s request comes as part of an ongoing effort to address the issue of immigration enforcement policies that disproportionately affect vulnerable populations, including individuals with disabilities.
