"I sat next to a Mexican-American businessman on a flight yesterday. He employs about 150 people, and they'll be closed on May 1. I think this could be a really big deal. I hope it sends a big message to all of those people indifferent to the lives of our fellow citizens who are immigrants, legal and illegal.
