Welcome new followers 👋🏽 I post a lot about immigration because I come from an immigrant family and don’t believe in slamming shut the door behind me but also because immigration is good for the nation. I also post about cats, which I believe are also good for the nation. Meet my cat Juan Gabriel 🐾
