For years people have been quick to criticize those looking to immigrate to America in hope of a better life. But outside of using the popular #kidsincages hashtag, how much do Americans really know about the Immigration process and its laws? We talk to Criminal and Immigration Attorney Cynthia Santiago about how she’s providing legal help to those who do not have access to passionate & trustworthy legal counsel. Cynthia Santiago also discusses the different immigration laws as well as explaining on how others can be an ally to immigrants and their families.
