Coinciding with George Floyd’s funeral service in Houston, Línea Abierta airs the song “A Change Is Gonna Come,” considered an anthem for the Civil Rights Movement, in coordination with community stations around the country. On other news, as USCIS resumes in-person services in many cities, an immigration law expert comments on the backlog of oath citizenship ceremonies that impacts more than 100,000 people. Also, after reports that immigrant families are avoiding benefits due to confusion over public charge, she clarifies the official rule. Finally, she advises immigrants to get informed and equipped with new tech tools, to prepare for the new time of digital paperwork and virtual proceedings.
