In an MSNBC interview, Congressman Robert Garcia (D-CA) stated, “Immigrants contribute so much to local economies and all of our states across the country. Immigrants are getting educated. You have folks that are completing graduate degrees, folks from other countries that are here contributing and everything from folks who are going to college to folks who are out there paving our roads, our streets, our bridges. We know the only way our economy can work is with immigrants.”.
