Last week, Reps. Kagi and Ryu met with a group of students from LEAP (Latino/a Educational Achievement Project). LEAP’s mission is ensuring all students graduate from high school with the skills they need to succeed for work or for college!
On the first day of session the House passed of the Dream Act, allowing all deserving children, regardless of their immigration status, a fair shot at financial aid for college. With this in mind, Reps. Kagi and Ryu offered words of encouragement to the LEAP students – urging them to pursue their dreams. “With hard work, anything is possible,” they said.
