Immigration and the care economy are uniquely linked. As I told @emilypeck.bsky.social the relationship between a care worker and the disabled or aging person is the foundation of care. The actions of the administration stoking understandable fear in immigrant communities will impact care.

You can argue the merits of deporting Marcelo—a young man brought here at age 5—if you want to. But this is someone we should be proud to call American. He’s solid on every level. And if you’re really a Christian, you should be lifting him up, not casting him out.
