Since 2025 began, issues surrounding immigration, naturalization and undocumented citizens has been very much in the news cycle. What can get lost in all of the coverage of ICE raids and deportations are the stories of real people who are pursuing legal avenues to become US citizens. My guests today, Samuel and Julie, are the leaders of CLIP, which stands for Creating Legal Immigration Pathways, a student-run organization that helps non citizens in their California community to find accessible pathways to obtain United States citizenship. This work is timely, and important, and once again, young people are rolling up their sleeves to find real solutions to complicated problems.
