Andrew Cuomo on Immigration

2002 Democratic Challenger NY Governor

Disallow discrimination & exploitation of immigrants

We are a nation of immigrants and many of our forefathers and mothers came through Ellis Island in the hope and promise of a new beginning. It is critically important that we not allow the exploitation of immigrant communities. We must continue to fight immigration fraud, like those who exploit and target vulnerable immigrants by providing fraudulent immigration services. Moreover, we must continue to make sure that these communities do not face discrimination and receive fair wages and a safe workplace Source: 2010 gubernatorial campaign website, andrewcuomo.com , Nov 1, 2010
