@DefineAmerican If you’re wondering why, decades later, millions of undocumented Americans like me have not been able to adjust our immigration status, look at this graphic. America’s immigration code is even more complex than our tax code.
April Fools! And, all joking aside, please do not take your U.S. citizenship for granted. Stay informed. Engage. And, vote. While you’re at it, follow our work at @DefineAmerican. 🇺🇸
