On June 13, 2016, Salon published an article featuring the story of CAIR Coalition client Garfield Kenault Lawrence. Kenault, a legal permanent resident who moved to the United States as a child, was deported and permanently separated from his US citizen wife and young son because he was convicted of small-time marijuana offenses. CAIR Coalition is currently representing Kenault in his fight to be reunited with his family, arguing that ICE misinterpreted federal law, breaking apart this American family.
