Please, I need you to depict a different image of me or minimize its severity than originally portrayed by the DA. If we can counter attack the DA’s letter, most likely they will run out of ammo to attack us next time. The following emphasizes I need you to work on (just my recommendation, I am certain you have your strategy): • Minimize immigration/deportation since the DA claimed it is a federal concern but not the state • Primarily reason to seek pardon is to leave criminal life behind and move forward without any conscience 2.

    The Diary of an Undocumented Immigrant is a biographical novel written by Ramon Perez and published in 1991. The narrative follows our storyteller and author Perez through his journey from a Zapotec village in Oaxaca, Mexico over the border, illegally of course (hence the title) into The United States where he experiences the many facets of American culture before returning to his home village two years later as a celebrated hero.

    Sanctuary cities are areas where laws, ordinances, resolutions , executive actions, or initiatives deny local law enforcement the ability to apprehend or question an individual based on his or her immigration status, even if there are reasons to believe the individual entered the country illegally. This action is achieved when the mayor of a city signs a bill preventing local law enforcement from questioning someone about his or her immigration status, such as if he has or does not have a visa/green card, even if they have been arrested for an unrelated topic. While in office, President Donald Trump threatened to cut the police budget of the cities that do not comply with immigration laws and turn in those who are in the country illegally.
