 WELCOME

 ~To all of you who believe immigrants~

 Are… 

**********************************************************

 

~Taking your jobs~

They are not,

They are doing the jobs you will not accept.

 

They are taking jobs they are over qualified for~

Just to have the opportunity

To support and feed their families

 

~Morally corrupting our country~

Then why are you letting them raise your children?

 

~Depleting our Tax Dollars~

On the contrary, they are generating them!

 

Mexican immigrants alone generated a fiscal surplus of

US $106 million in 2001

 

~Somebody NOT Like You~

Before you point a finger at “Them”

Understand you are an immigrant too.

**********************************************************

I challenge you to read on,

To learn about the issues regarding migration

BEFORE

You make judgments about what you do not understand.
 

I ask you…

Are you not an immigrant?

Where did your family come from?

Who ARE You?

Aren’t we all the same? 

We just come in different times…from different places!

  **********************************************************

The above picture is of a Mexican worker...she looks no different than any of us.
