Senators Hirono and Blumenthal seek accountability for the forced self-deportation of disabled veteran Sae Joon Park.
Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senators Mazie K. Hirono and Richard Blumenthal have criticized the Department of Homeland Security's treatment of Sae Joon Park, a disabled Purple Heart veteran forced to self-deport after nearly five decades in the U.S. They questioned the department's rationale for such action against a veteran who served the country.
In a letter to DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, the senators expressed concern, stating, "Your department must explain to the American people your reasoning for treating a veteran, who has fought and been wounded for our country, in such a poor manner.” They requested detailed answers regarding DHS policies related to veterans and self-deportation.
Mr. Park, who moved to the U.S. at age seven, served in the Army and received a Purple Heart for his service. His legal troubles, tied to an undiagnosed PTSD condition, led to the revocation of his green card, culminating in his recent forced departure.
