The claims on The View appear to stem from discussions about family deportations. In certain cases, families with mixed immigration statuses—where some members are U.S. citizens and others are undocumented—face difficult decisions. If an undocumented parent or spouse is deported, U.S. citizen family members may choose to leave voluntarily to keep the family unit intact. However, this is not the same as the government forcibly deporting American citizens.
Homan’s rebuttal underlines the need for clarity in conversations about immigration policy, particularly as the Trump administration plans to revisit its strategies for border security and deportation during its upcoming term. These policies remain a topic of contention, with differing interpretations of their scope and impact on mixed-status families.
