Welcome to Episode 09 of our "Public Comment" podcast. As former elected officials in Napa Valley, we talk about politics, people and whatever else is on our minds.

Immigration is our topic this episode. From the beginning, immigrants have been part of Napa Valley's DNA. Today, our immigrant friends, neighbors, colleagues and workers are under threat. While town halls, proclamations and protests play a role, we need action - from our politicians, community leaders, employers and ourselves - to support and protect our immigrant population.
