Although this blog began as a tool to reveal the importance of preserving the Spanish language (since translating to and from this elegant language is my profession), I am also deeply involved in the daily struggles of immigrants here in South Florida where our office is located. My pleasurable hobby of spotlighting mistranslations has since taken a backseat to the current political climate regarding immigration reform in the US. Our team here has always followed the evolving policies surrounding immigration and joyfully engage in enlightening debates when the opportunity arises; however, we feel that only recently has there been a tangible shift in consciousness toward reaching viable solutions to our broken immigration system.
Every so often (and when time permits), I would like to spotlight intelligent commentary and useful information from various sources using a jovial yet cautious discernment. I'd also like to share other critical issues (when possible) that are not so obviously related. We'll begin however, with a straightforward piece. This is Felicia Escobar's (Senior Policy Director for Immigration in the White House Domestic Policy Council) post on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) written just hours ago, and what remains to be the first step to "commonsense reform".
