LETTER: Voices worthless and unwelcome in immigration debate

Very interesting to see protests here in Sequim, opposing the national emergency declared by President Donald Trump over building the wall.

I believe that if you haven’t lived in Southern California, Southern Arizona or South Texas, your voice in this debate is worthless and unwelcomed.

How can residents of the Pacific Northwest in general, and the Olympic Peninsula specifically, possibly know anything about illegal immigration and the everyday effects it has on those who live there?
