Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

In the past our country has welcomed immigrants. Most of them do have good reasons for being here; war in their country, famine or supporting a family. Trump and ICE throwing them out of the USA is totally different from what I feel our country should stand for!

The Statue of Liberty says “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.” That’s the United States I know.

Bishop Marriann Edgar Buddle says, “That towns that have a high level of undocumented immigrants have a lower crime rate.”

Thank you Brookside School and Albert Lea for having classes for our immigrants.
