Harvard student allowed back after humanitarian parole for travel with dying mother

Dario Guerrero, a Harvard student born in Mexico, is granted a two year humanitarian parole allowing return to the United States after crossing into Mexico with his dying mother. The move follows a long effort to secure permission to depart and reenter under immigration rules. Guerrero’s case highlighted enforcement and exceptions under the Obama era policy granting deferred action to many young immigrants.
