A2: Immigration

By

The Michigan Messenger reports that 24-year-old, Iranian-born Mohammad Abdollahi of Ann Arbor is leading an immigration protest: “Today Abdollahi is staging a sit-in with three other undocumented youth in an attempt to focus attention on federal legislation called the Development, Relief and Education of Alien Minors Act (DREAM Act), which supporters say will reward hard work and civic responsibility while providing a path to citizenship for the thousands of undocumented youth who are in this country but have known no other home but the United States. The protest is taking place at the Tuscon, AZ offices of Republican Sen. John McCain, a former GOP presidential candidate.” [Source]
