The Trump administration has released a 64-year-old Iranian woman from immigration detention after a top GOP lawmaker intervened on her behalf.
House Majority Leader Steve Scalise advocated for Immigration and Customs Enforcement to free Mandonna “Donna” Kashanian after she was picked up by agency officials earlier in June, the Associated Press reports.
ICE agents seized the woman, who has lived in the United States for 47 years, while she was gardening outside her home in suburban New Orleans.
