Immigration is a system and a set of policies. And immigrants are the people behind those policies and behind that system, and the human stories.
Fortunately, we have help from the media. I have to say this: I'm very grateful for the support and kindness that we've gotten.

He presented himself as the friend to Main Street America, and yet that aw-shucks persona ended up packaging policies and programs that were at times deeply injurious to the very people he swore to serve.
