My view: Helping ‘undocumented Americans’

diya_shahBetter UTAH intern Diya Shah argued for compassionate immigration reform in an OpEd in today’s Deseret News.

Utahns are known for their caregiving. I am not surprised that the Utah Compact that humanizes undocumented immigrants and was praised by Obama, is a creation of Utahns. Individuals brought into the United States as children are as American as anyone and should not be denied the rights to success and betterment. Therefore, we should support humane immigration reform and reaffirm our commitment to the undocumented Americans who live here.
