Like, can you believe what is going on right now? But that's fam. And what needs to be done to. Keep the promise of New York alive for future immigrants and migrants? Well, very directly, We shouldn't have ICE at our schools, our places to worship, our community centers, because it's unconstitutional and it's wrong. We have to expand the conversation of immigration because we have allowed MAGA Republicans, I want to be very specific, because not the entire Republican Party, but we've allowed MAGA Republicans to make immigration a Latino only conversation.
