Issue Position: Immigration

Issue Position

Ram's parents immigrated to the United States from India in the 1970s with eight dollars in their pockets. Professionals in India, they both worked minimum wage jobs, and faced discrimination and unfair pay cuts while trying to support their family.

Ram will never forget his family's struggle. Protecting and supporting immigrants is personal to him; it's a top priority.
​
Ram strongly supports the need for comprehensive immigration reform, the protection of DACA recipients, making Illinois a sanctuary state, calling out hate crimes for what they are, and fighting to end discrimination based on race and/or religion.
