Karina is preparing for a big move. Born in Mexico, she came to America as a child with her parents, who illegally crossed the border in search of a better life. She eventually became an American citizen when her husband joined the military. Her parents worked and lived in the U.S. for decades, but with no path to citizenship, they remained undocumented – now fearing deportation. Even, as a US citizen, Karina is planning to move her entire family, including her American children, back to her home country. Correspondent Leone Lakhani traveled to Texas to hear her story.
