Ep. 10 - Deployed to Deported: U.S. Veterans Living in Mexico

Kassy Dillon Show

Right now, there are hundreds of deported veterans living in Mexico. These veterans joined the U.S. military with the promise of obtaining residency only to be deported after their service. Jose Alanis is an Iraq veteran who served over 10 years in the military. Jose now supports deported veterans who seek refuge in The Bunker, a support house in Tijuana, Mexico. He joins Kassy to talk about the stories of those veterans and discuss the flaws in our immigration and military bureaucracy that allow this to happen. What are the challenges faced by our non-citizen veterans? What support do they have, and more importantly not have? Find out on this episode of The Kassy Dillon Show.
