Explanation:
In "My Parents Were Deported" by Diane Guerrero we can see that the author shows the importance of establishing public policies that involve all individuals living in the country, including immigrants and mainly illegal immigrants.
The author states that illegal immigrants contribute to the country's economy, but they have nothing to help them become legal citizens, however much they want to. With this, the author shows the demand in government policies in the families of undocumented immigrants.
