If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

Five years ago our sweet Beans came into this world. Just nine months later she left it. She would have five, but she's forever nine months old to us. If you remember her story please consider helping us honor her on her birthday with a donation to fight childhood cancer.
