It was a pleasure marching yesterday for Immigration Reform through Manhattan with a united group of dreamers and reformers. My admiration goes out for all of the immigrants who marched yesterday, unafraid. They carried their countries’ flags in one hand and the huge American flag between them. The American flag was clutched in their dark, working hands. It is about keeping families together, and keeping the workers who elevate the economy. It is about giving these workers what they are entitled to. It is about giving their children an opportunity to dream and thrive.
Thank you to the NYPD for keeping us safe.
