As dozens of Chaldeans face possible deportation, loved ones and supporters continue to fight for their right to stay in the U.S. Another protest held outside Detroit's Federal Building, as a lawsuit is filed seeking a temporary stay of deportations. Her family is Syrian and her brother came to the U.S when he was 6 years old. She says he is now facing deportation over a marijuana charge. "It was just one mistake. One mistake. We are not terrorists, and he did not rape anyone, didn't kill anyone, just a petty crime for the weed," she said. Levin and Congresswoman Brenda Lawrence are reaching out to homeland security to stop these deportations. "This is not right," Lawrence said.
