Gentle reminder that immigrants are more than their economic worth. Immigrants are more than their labor. Immigrants are more than their work ethic.
All these Trumpers are in for a hurting real bad once they feel how important immigrants are to the economy.
It's going to be immense pain. And you know what? The country did it to itself—the self-destructive power of white supremacy.

The arrest of union leader David Huerta is galvanizing a new element—solidarity:
“Right now, just in the last 14 hours, labor unions are joining together from far and wide, communities are reaching out in ways I’ve never seen,” Orr told me. “Something is different.”

There are few more principled defenders of immigrants in the labor movement. He needs our solidarity now. An injury to one is an injury to all.

This kid is 15, and so has a moral clarity and uprightness that no adult elected official would or could ever have. There aren't really and never have been two sides of this issue, but if it has to be argued as a binary thing I don't see how anything less than this could seem like the side to be on.
