Arizona senators from both parties advocate to stop deportation of Kelly Yu, a local business owner who employs 30 people and faces removal despite no criminal record.
- Earlier this month, Everett, GOP chair for Arizona Legislative District 29, partnered with Democrat Peak to prevent Kelly Yu’s removal, and she remains in ICE custody at Eloy Detention Center.
- Legal setbacks date back to February 4, 2004, when U.S. Border Patrol arrested Kelly Yu; her appeal was dismissed on November 14, 2013, by the Board of Immigration Appeals.
- On Aug. 7, U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly visited Yu’s detention center, and U.S. Sen. Ruben Gallego also met with her to rally support.

- Sen. Gallego warned the U.S. loses entrepreneurs like Yu if she’s deported, noting she has no criminal record and pays personal and business taxes.
