“It is an incredible privilege for me to witness firsthand the strength, resilience and tremendous dignity of my immigration clients, who have overcome unimaginable hardships and persecution to make it to our shores. With their passion, love for democracy, and love of learning, they have taught me what it means to never give up and to truly become American.”
Susan J. Cohen
