ICE granted the Romeikes a stay of deportation after pro-family voices pushed back against the agency’s effort to remove them from the country last month.
A petition urging the Biden administration to allow the Romeike family to stay in the United States was recently started by the Homeschool Legal Defense Association.
By treating marriage and family as a mere construct of the state, and denying the normativity of the intact biological family, the majority in Obergefell have effectively enshrined this statist vision of childrearing in our law.
If forced to return to their home country, the Romeikes may face additional fines and jail time, along with the loss of their children to state custody.
