Hey... BlindBoo! I apologize for YOUR error in not identifying that YOU weren't the immigration lawyer!
The impression I saw was YOU wrote:
But as an immigration lawyer who has represented families and children for years, I am alarmed by another policy the President has enacted that, in practice, may cancel all his gains.
You had no quote marks which would have given me a clue as other readers YOU were quoting!
So you really should be apologizing for your production error, i.e. when you quote someone else, USE """"" marks!
