The United States is sometimes described as a "melting pot" in which different culture have contributed their own distinct "flavours" to American culture.

New arrivals to the U.S help drive business creation, fuel innovation, fill essential workforce needs and strengthen the middle class. Family-based immigration promotes family unity and integration, all core principles of American values.

DROP HER CHARGES #STANDWITHTRACY Tracy McCarter was assaulted by her husband and fought back in self-defense. She survived and is now being punished for defending herself against violence.

First off, the state determines what gets classified as a crime. Despite the fact that no one is harmed by someone trying to find a place to rest, there are laws that criminalize camping or sleep outside; meanwhile millions of people a year are harmed by lack of access to medical care, yet the state of our health care system is not considered a violent crime. Compared to a person with housing, a person who is unhouse less likely to engage in robberies, assault, and homicides and is in fact more likely to be the victim of such harm, especially if they are a child, adolescent, or woman. Those who are unhouse are more exposed to violence Compared 😳 to those who are housed, and sweeps increase the risk of assault. Many people have share that they experienced violence and insecurity directly related to camp eviction.

In this segment doctors and advocates talk to the media about the effects, health and the city treating homeless people belongings like it is garbage 🗑 😒 !!!!!!!!!!!!
