DENVER— Michelle Obama told a Hispanic caucus to the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday that they should not have to live in fear of raids by immigration agents.
Obama told delegates that her husband, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, wants to reform immigration policies and provide 11 million illegal immigrants a path to citizenship.
Obama says Hispanics are often the first to suffer in an economic downturn and the last to benefit during a recovery.
Obama told the caucus that blacks and Hispanics share a lot of issues facing Americans and her husband wants to improve health care, education, and economic opportunities for all Americans, not just a select few.
