"In our America, millions of households are mixed-status immigrant households. Like mine. Sitting behind me today is my Filipino-American family: my grandma Leonila, whom I love very much; my Aunt Aida Rivera, who helped raised me; and my Uncle Conrad Salinas, who served in the U.S. Navy for 20 years.
