TEENS CHARGED IN BEATING DEATH OF 25 YEAR-OLD UNDOCUMENTED WOMAN

According to an article on cnn.com:  “Three white teens were charged Friday in what officials said was an epithet-filled fatal beating of an illegal Mexican immigrant in a small northeast Pennsylvania coal town.”

INTERVIEW OF BRAIN SURGEON WHO WAS AN “ILLEGAL ALIEN”

I received a kind e-mail from someone at bigthink.com who informed me that there is an interview with Dr. Q on that site.  The interview puts a face to the story of the man who started in the U.S. as a migrant farm worker and became a John Hopkins brain surgeon and is worth checking out.

In our practice we come across people who are living the American Dream because our immigration laws gave them that opportunity.  They benefit as does the country as a whole.

When Comprehensive Immigration Reform comes up again in Congress, I hope the cool-headed, compassionate majority will be motivated to call their congressional representatives to drown out the loud, yet passionate minority who oppose changing our laws so that they make sense.
