Vice has an article out today about how bad notarios are. Here in Tucson, we often see that notarios often charge as much as actual lawyers, but have none of the legal training.

How these people can continue to operate and still sleep at night is something I will never understand.

The US has a shameful history of detaining immigrant children, which is only getting worse. Read this recent story about a three-year-old who was held for two years.

At last some good news. A touching article from Aatish Taseer on how getting a green card made him finally feel at home in the world. Read this article in the Wall Street Journal for Taseer’s moving tale.

It was Latin night at the Pulse nightclub, so many of the victims are Latinx. We need to step up and help those that suffer in a very particular way, the Undocumented people from the Orlando club.

Fusion shared the stories with us here.

Pretty cool, right?

I explained how necessary this action is for immigrant families.
