This week, families across our state are unboxing their Thanksgiving décor, choosing table cloths, and deciding who is going to be responsible for what dish this coming Thursday. Its that time of the year when we communities come together, put family disputes aside and get in the holiday spirit. Unfortunately, this holiday season comes with a different taste for many as hundreds of Iowa families will eat their Thanksgiving meals with uncertainty, anxiety and fear.
The lives of hundreds of families across our states are at risk thanks to Donald Trumps draconian immigration policies. Many of your immigrant friends and neighbors are already being subjected to intimidation from immigration authorities, while others are facing deportation.
Make no mistake, Donald Trump is doing everything he promised during his campaign. His administrations goal is to deport as many immigrants as possible, and two of their main targets are Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) beneficiaries. This is not a drill nor an exaggeration, this is reality. Donald Trump wants to deport hard working Iowans like myself, which is want I call on my community to take action.
Trump has upended the lives of nearly 3,000 Iowans who have gone to college, started a family and contribute to their local communities by ending the DACA program. Now the future of these Iowans hinges on the actions of Congress, and whether they are able to pass legislation to allow these young people to live free from the fear of deportation.

LEGAL immigrants are ‘in fear’? WHY? Because they are aiding and abetting criminal parasites in our country? Because they identify with law-breakers instead of legal Americans? Illegal invaders SHOULD be afraid, they should be paralyzed by terror-so much that they return to their beloved homelands. Anyone who wants to live, eat, speak and defend Mexico/Honduras/San Salvador, etc. should STAY there. For that I would be eternally thankful.
If they are illegal aliens they are not immigrants.
Illegal immigrants should show Donald Trump who’s the boss by getting up and going home RIGHT NOW!!! That’ll show him!
I’m an immigrant and I’m not the least fearful...
I haven’t been in 45 years and there’s no need to be afraid now...
Illegal aliens OTOH, might do well to
RUN BACK HOME TO MEXICO !!!
Yeah, he knows the difference. The lefties always say “immigrant” when they are referring to illegals. They hope by making no distinction between legals and illegals we will all engage in a group hug and sing Kumbaya.
Fear the tamale meat!
If Amazon could find a way to sell words, I’d have a couple boxes of “illegal” shipped to huffpo. They’ve obviously run out and that’s got to be frustrating when your job is writing words.

There aren’t enough eyerolls.
The ones who are here illegally are invaders, not immigrants.
Do illegals even celebrate Thanksgiving?
Every day is Thanksgiving day when you waltz into someone ease’s country and take things and services you didn’t earn.
Headline should read:
Illegal (re: criminal) Aliens Will Be Served A Side Dish of Fear During This Years Thanksgiving Dinner
Good. Let Justice prevail, too.
...Many of your immigrant friends and neighbors are already being subjected to intimidation from immigration authorities, while others are facing deportation...
Nobody I know is facing intimidation or deportation.
I don’t personally know anyone here illegally.
I’m afraid immigrants will be persecuted just for joining the civic organization MS-13.
Show the invaders the door. They surely have turkey in Mexico.
Their dreams will be of jack-booted storm troopers this Christmas instead of sugar plum faeries and whiskers on kittens.
