原文语境
The Cruz family was exhausted. For years, Rachel and her undocumented husband, Irvi, had been hustling to make their grueling routine work in New York City, hoping that American immigration policy would eventually evolve to grant Irvi legal status. Raising two daughters in an expensive city felt like an endless marathon, yet they hung on, encouraged by supportive lawyers. However, the political landscape shifted dramatically in late 2024 with Donald Trump’s reelection. His campaign's aggressive rhetoric of mass deportation shattered their hopes, making it clear that staying posed too great a risk. Rather than risk traumatic separation, the family made the agonizing decision to uproot their lives and self-deport to Irvi's hometown in rural Mexico. Rachel lamented that they had lost all faith in the promise of the American dream, realizing that the country no longer wanted her children or grandchildren.
克鲁兹家族精疲力竭。多年来,瑞秋和她无合法身份的丈夫欧维一直在拼命维持他们在纽约市繁重日常的运转,期望美国移民政策最终能够改善并赋予欧维合法身份。在生活成本高昂的城市里抚养两个女儿就像一场无休止的马拉松,但在支持他们的律师鼓励下,他们还是坚持下去。然而,随着唐纳德·特朗普在2024年底再次当选,政治局势发生了戏剧性转变。其竞选活动中关于大规模驱逐的出击性言论粉碎了他们的希望,也让他们看清继续留下来面临着过大的风险。为了不冒遭受骨肉分离痛苦的风险,全家做出了痛心抉择,决定放弃原有的生活,自愿遣返回欧维在墨西哥农村的老家。瑞秋哀叹道,他们已经对美利坚之梦的承诺彻底失去了信心,并意识到这个国家不再接纳她的孩子和孙辈。
