Main Talk:
U.S. Immigration policy is confusing to many. Who can come? How many can we accept? Is the border out of control? Why don’t people come legally? Are there any possible solutions?
Speaker Bio:
Gordon Quan is certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization in the U.S. He has served on the national board of the Immigration section of the state bar of Texas. Gordon Quan has been practicing immigration law for over 45 years.
Musician Bio:
Brightwire is an folk-rock band hailing from southeast Texas. Combining elements of folk, rock, country, punk and whatever else they happen to get interested in, they weave tales of lives lived in our world today. For them, music is about inclusion and letting others know they are not alone in their struggles. Their latest album, Cracked, Flawed and Frayed, was named one of the top local albums of 2021 by the Houston Chronicle. Their last single, Better Off Gone, was named to multiple end of the year lists in 2022 as far away as Boston, MA.
