Coming up, asking for action. I didnt realize how bad it is. Whats being made in washington after our investigation uncovered the plight of deported u. S. Military veterans. Yet were deported. Our recentnvo they served their country and yet were deported. The plight of deported u. S. Military veterans. Now proposed legislation in washington, d. C. Steven stock reports, a lot congressmen wants to let those deported veterans back in. Reporter after our investigation aired last month we heard from many viewers outraged that the u. S. Government policy would result in u. S. Veterans who are noncitizens being kicked out of the country after running into trouble with the law. Today several u. S. Congressmen including one congressman from the east bay introduced a new bill in congress to change that policy. Our investigation found dozens of families split apart like Enrique Salas and his daughter split apart by a policy that was first implemented during the bill Clinton Administration and upheld through three subsequent presidencies. These men are good enough to serve our country, but once they make a mistake, then, you know, they dont get any second chances. Reporter we found hundreds of deported American Military veterans, veterans who had served the u. S. As noncitizens, who had been honorably discharged from the service but then later deported for committing crimes classified as aggravated felonies, crimes like drug possession, failure to show up in court or entering the country illegally. I didnt realize how bad it is and what a terrible injustice. Its really a very poor reflection on the United States that we ask people to do this and then the consequences, particular my of some of your stories. Reporter this congressman of walnut creek saw our investigation and said he had to act. Its clearly not acceptable and we need to fix it in a bipartisan way. Reporter he joined another congressman of arizona coauthoring a bill in congress that would require the u. S. Department of Homeland Security to establish a veterans visa program to bring back to the u. S. All those who have served and were subsequently deported. Its a reflection of congress inability to deal with immigration in a thoughtful way. And its the extreme really example and people would serve this country, be here illegally, serve the country, then be punished. Reporter the congressman tells me several members of Congress Want to change procedure so that when someone signs up to become a member of the military, they also automatically become a u. S. Citizen. He calls this bill a first step in trying to correct a problem that he says needs to be fixed. Im steven stock, nbc bay area news. Give us a call 888996tips. Well an upset at the box office.
