Summary

Congressman Mark Takano, drawing parallels from his familys experience during World War Two internment, warns against the dangers of current immigration policies. He argues that the forced relocation of Japanese Americans is a shameful chapter in U.S. history and fears that future generations will question how similar actions are allowed today. Takano, referencing the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, calls for redress for those affected by current immigration enforcement actions, hoping the nation can learn from these mistakes and emerge stronger.
