Happy Fourth of July,
John!
Let me tell you about the country I love.
After arriving here from India at age 16, I spent more than a dozen years
on an alphabet soup of visas — F1, H1B and more — before I finally got my
green card. Then, after a few more years, I finally became a citizen. A
citizen of the United States of America.
America, a country that had embraced me as a 16-year-old who had come here
by myself to study and build a life of better opportunity.
America, a country built on the idea of being a refuge for those in need,
“the tired masses, yearning to breathe free.”
America, a country that has always celebrated itself as a nation of
immigrants.
In the moment I took my oath, I realized how lucky I was.
I knew that my future had opened up, and that citizenship would offer me
the chance to seek opportunity and to take part in our democracy.
I knew, too, that with those freedoms and opportunity came enormous
responsibility: to do everything I could to preserve and build our
democracy, to vote, and to use my life to pay it forward and ensure
opportunity for others.
That is our mission together and I’m so grateful to have your partnership
in this fight.
I believe in the work we’re doing together and I’ll never give up the
fight for our progressive values — but we must stand united. [ [link removed] ]If you’re
with me, please chip in to power our fight for the progressive future and
the country we deserve.
