Progress

This afternoon, I sat in a room in City Hall with immigrant families and other activists who have been working for years to fix a broken system. We sat elbow to elbow watching President Obama on TV, as he laid out his executive action that will enable 5 million people to come out of the shadows without fear of deportation. Every now and then there is tangible progress, and it’s almost always because of collective effort. Today was one of those awesome days!
