I’m not a stranger, I’m your neighbor: forum on immigration and community

We read about the impact of the Trump administration’s immigration policy at the national level, but these issues are pressing right here on the South Shore. The Weymouth Democratic Town Committee invites you to observe the Free America Walkout by learning about some of the organizations that support immigrants in our own community. What is happening in our area? What is Massachusetts doing to help immigrants and refugees? What can and should we be doing as neighbors and citizens to support and protect our immigrant neighbors?
