We are the land of the free, we need to make sure that other people have the opportunity to escape bad situations and be able to feel safe. He also said “...fleeing war and persecution rebuild their lives. Today, nearly 70,000 Vietnamese-Americans live in Washington, and they have added to our quality of life in countless ways.” I really like what he said because we allow other immigrants fleeing war in before
