Immigration Politics: New campaign to focus on 'broken' US immigration system

New campaign to focus on 'broken' US immigration system: "Pulitzer-winning Jose Antonio Vargas has launched the 'Define American' campaign to elevate the issue of US immigration and put a new focus on America's undocumented residents.

Jose Antonio Vargas is a Pulitzer-winning journalist who recently made the controversial revelation that he is an undocumented American who came to live in the country as a child without a US Visa.

Originally from the Philippines, Vargas has now launched the 'Define American' campaign to focus on the issue of US immigration.

From the Define American website, their mission is stated as follows:

"Our request is simple: Let’s talk. Our immigration system is broken -- and fixing it requires a conversation that’s bigger and more effective than the one that we’ve become accustomed to.""
