While Assembly Bill 238 extended mortgage forbearance to 12 months, enforcement gaps remain—and survivors are still at risk of foreclosure and surprise payment demands.

The book illustrates that immigrants aren’t just workers—they’re consumers, investors, entrepreneurs, and innovators who expand demand, drive investment, and create jobs, complementing (not displacing) "native-born" workers.
