DC Immigration March
Synergies
Earlier this week, I hosted my annual meeting for my association members. One of the hotest topics of course was immigration. The industry I represent has a desperate need for workers, and were not talking about low paid workers here...in the hospitality industry, immigrants not only do the cooking and cleaning, they are increasingly working their way up into middle management. Anyway, the last two panels of the day were about immigration reform. Just as the final panel of the day ended, the immigration march began to pass the club where our meetings were being held. A wonderful coincidence and a bit ironic that those marching in the streets and those of us from the meeting were on the same side of the issue.
Here's some pics of the march.
He's smiling here, but this guy was real shouty
Lots of American flags.....
