For those of you concerned about Mr. Ortiz's legal status, and following the rules, the law, etc., I received this email from Tulsi Gabbard updating Ortiz's situation:
... a quick update from the plane on my way back to Hawai'i.
On Wednesday, I spoke on the House floor urging my colleagues to support... Andres Magana Ortiz’s eligibility for legal, permanent residence in the United States. My bill, For the relief of Andres Magana Ortiz (H.R. 2794), is a last resort option that would permit a farmer, community leader, father and loving husband to remain at his home with his family in Kailua-Kona, Hawai'i.
... Mr. Ortiz received a 30-day reprieve from deportation yesterday. Like so many others, Mr. Ortiz deserves the opportunity to continue his pathway to a legal status, and I will continue to pursue legislative options to keep Mr. Ortiz with his family in the United States.
So should the law pass, Mr. Ortiz would be able to stay in Hawaii, legally. Following the rules.
