According

more
than
10%
of
the
Forbes
400
list
and
2016
are
immigrants.
In

the
Forbes

included
57
people
who
are
the
children
of
immigrants.
B
They
represented
a
variety
of
business
sectors
such
as
technology
finance,
investment,
Media
Entertainment,

Now,
please
allow
me

our
moderator,
who
will
lead
our
discussion.
Please
welcome
the
executive
editor
of
the
Boston
Business
Journal
Doug
Bates.
C
Thank
You
Alejandra.
Thank
you
to
the
mayor's
office.
Thank
you,
everybody
for
for
having
me
here
for
the
opportunity
I'm,
looking
forward
to
the
conversations
that
are
to
follow
so
I'm
gonna,
make
myself
comfortable
right
here
and
we're
gonna
get
started
the
Business
Journal
on
the
topic
of
immigration,
as
this
is
a
perfect
topic
for
us
in
many
ways
for
me
to
be
here,
because
this
is
a
topic
that
we've
editorialized
about
we've
covered.
C
We
focus
obviously
on
the
local
business
community
and
there's
nothing
more
local
than
our
immigrant
community
here:
entrepreneurship,
business,
growth
and
and
the
economy.
So
we
are
going
to
talk
about
all
of
those
things
today
and
I
would
just
like
to
share
a
couple
of
facts
with
you
before
we
get
started
and
I
introduce
our
speakers.
So
here
are
some
facts:
142
percent
of
America's
top
cancer
researchers
are
immigrants.
C
High-Skilled
visas
have
funded
more
than
70,000
scholarships
for
US
students
in
STEM
fields,
70%
or
more
of
graduate
students
in
key
technology
fields
are
international
students.
More
than
half
of
America's
billion
dollar
startups
had
an
immigrant
founder,
that's
staggering
information,
and
so
now
with
that
and
with
more
to
come,
let's
get
started
first
I'd
like
to
introduce
the
senior
editor
at
Forbes.
C
Forbes
has
been
synonymous
with
success:
good
business,
innovation
and
integrity
beyond
their
renowned
must-know
lists,
like
30
under
30
richest
people,
most
powerful
women
biggest
companies,
Forbes
magazine,
maintains
a
unique
voice
in
its
national
coverage
of
global
business
stories.
Steve
bertoni's,
the
senior
editor
at
forbes
magazine
he
hosts
Forbes
flagship
pod,
cast
the
Forbes
interview.
Mr.
Bertoni
regularly
appears
on
national
TV,
including
CNBC,
CNN
and
MSNBC,
and
today
to
discuss
tech
business.
In
the
news
of
the
day,
the
city
of
Boston
under
mayors
may
come
on
up.
C
Thank
you.
The
City
of
Boston,
under
Mayor,
Walsh's
leadership
and
in
partnership
with
local
funding
communities,
has
created
the
Greater
Boston
immigrant
defense
fund.
It's
a
privately
funded
program
to
increase
legal
representation
for
our
low-income
residents
and
to
build
capacity
for
community
education.
The
city
of
Boston
has
also
been
embarking
on
a
public
art
campaign
to
celebrate
and
humanize
immigrant
contributions
and
in
June
the
mayor
hosted
the
first
regional
municipal
leaders
for
immigrant
advancement
summit
to
share
best
practices
on
building
trust
for
families
of
all
kinds
for
his
work
on
issues
affecting
immigrants.
C
C
Mr.
mayor
yeah
Steve
one
more
time,
we're
gonna
all
right
here
we
go
and
be
ready
folks,
because
we
will
have
some
audience
Q&A
and
some
audience
participation
opportunities
as
well,
but
first
I'd
like
to
will
begin
with
with
Mayor
Walsh
I
just
want
to
ask:
how
is
the
city
of
Boston
been
able
to
engage
the
business
community
on
when
it
comes
to
immigration?
We
I
gave
you
some
statistics
on
how
important
immigration
is
when
it
comes
to
your
office's
work
with
the
business
community.
C
D
A
whole
bunch
of
different
areas,
but
I
think
one
of
the
ones
that
we
have
is.
We
have
a
gala
coming
up.
We
have
Boston
gala
and
we
have
some
real
big
big
names
as
far
as
businesses
that
sponsor
that
event
and
also
come
to
that
event,
and
this
this
is
a
gala
that,
prior
to
2010
in
1517,
we
were
raising
money
to
support
the
office
in
2000
and
and
with
the
new,
with
the
new
administration
in
Washington,
we're
getting
more
and
more
support.
So
it
supports
our
immigrants.
D
It
supports
our
Americans
to
doing
through
our
office.
Immigrant
advancements
are
doing
clinics
for
citizenship
and
a
whole
bunch
of
other
things.
With
the
immigrant
defense
fund,
Alejandra
myself
I
made
a
bunch
of
calls,
but
they
were
made
15
calls
in
one
day
and
in
that
15
yeses.
The
community
is
very
engaged,
I.
Think
with
the
concerns
of
the
daca,
we'll
talk
about
that
a
little
bit.
You
know
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
employers
in
Boston
have
a
lot
of
daca
young
people
working
for
their
companies
and
in
the
impacts
of
dr.
D
C
Are
some
things
then
we're
going
to
come
to
Steve
next,
but
one
more
question?
What
are
some
of
the
things
that
Boston
is
doing,
that
other
cities
and
states
can
can
implement
to
attract
global
talent?
We're
gonna
see
a
lot
of
folks
coming
in
with
the
Forbes
30
under
30
over
the
next
there's
gonna
be
sort
of
a
national
spotlight
in
many
ways
on
this
topic
of
entrepreneurship,
etc.
C
D
Is
the
Forbes
under
30?
No,
this
is
the
second
year
now
that
we're
hosting
Forbes
under
30
in
Boston
and
having
this
conversation
happening
right
now
in
particular,
is
one
of
the
ways
that
we
continue
to
advance
our
city
and
I.
Think
that
you
know
what
other
cities
can
do.
Is
it
mean
when
the
executive
order
came
down
from
Washington,
the
first
one,
which
was
the
undocumented
immigrants
and
all
about
sanctuary,
City
business,
and
then
the
the
later
that
day,
when
the
Muslim
Bank
came
down,
we
sat
down.
We
brought
in.
D
E
D
Were
concerned
about
not
be
able
to
get
back
in
the
country
we
sat
down
with
hospitals,
we
had
the
hospital
CEOs
come
in
health
centers
and
they
were
concerned
about
the
medical
students
not
be
able
to
come
in
the
country.
As
you
mentioned,
the
facts
you
just
talked
about
I
think
44
percent
of
the
folks,
but
not
only
that
just
the
impact
that
it
would
have
on
medicine
and
in
science
and
then
what
was
interesting
a
few
days
later,
I
brought
in
some
tech
companies.
D
You
know
some
of
the
big
ones,
small
and
mid-sized
ones,
and
what
they
were
saying
to
us
is
that
what
saying
to
me
was
that
you
know
we
will
keep
Boston
as
our
global
headquarters
if
you
will,
but
we
probably
at
some
point
might
be
forced
to
open
up
our
offices
in
Canada
whether
in
immigration
laws
will
be
different.
So
when
you
think
about
the
impacts
the
immigration
has
on
on
cities
all
cities
in
America,
not
just
Boston,
it's
it's
it's
devastating,
potentially,
if
watch
the
TIF,
also
on
half
what
they
have
to
do.
D
So
it's
it's
crucially
important
that
we
send
positive
information
and
positive
messages
to
the
immigrant
community
to
let
them
know
that
we
are
welcoming
city,
even
though
we're
in
very
interesting
times
the
United
States
of
America.
Right
now,
when
it
comes
to
immigration,
we
are
a
welcoming
City.
We
are
an
open
city.
We
want
you
to
come
here
and
we
want
you
to
continue
to
come
here.
I
think
that's
important
and
having
more
more
lunches
like
this,
that
reinforces
that
as
I
look
out
the
room
we
have.
We
have
many
of
the
hospitals.
D
Here
we
have
the
life
insurance
companies.
Here
we
have
legal
services.
Here
we
have
the
press
here.
I
mean
all.
This
is
so
important
that
we
continue
to
to
pass
along
a
message
of
openness
and
an
open
dialogue,
because
that's
the
future
of
our
city,
we're
rich
city
built
by
immigrants.
Twenty-Eight
percent
of
the
people
that
live
in
the
city
of
Boston.
We
have
about
650
thousand
six
hundred,
eighty
thousand
people,
20%
of
them
are
foreign-born.
They
live
in
Boston
forty
eight
percent
of
the
people
who
live
in
Boston,
our
first
generation.
D
Like
me,
so
75
percent,
a
little
more
than
75
percent
of
the
people
in
Boston-
are
one
plane
ride
a
one
boat
ride
away
from
being
an
immigrant
when
you
think
about
that,
and
it's
pretty
there's
a
big
numbers
and
when
people
talk
about
what's
happening
in
the
country,
I
mean
I
would
argue
with
one
of
the
hottest
cities
in
America
we
have
7
billion
dollars
worth
of
development.
We
have
60,000
new
jobs
in
our
city
last
four
years,
30,000
new
people
in
our
city.
D
C
Someone
who
runs
a
newsroom
was
trying
to
keep
up
with
all
that
economic
activity.
I
can
assure
you
that
you're,
absolutely
right.
Boston
is
one
of
the
hottest
cities
in
the
country,
so
alright
Steve,
we
talked
a
little
bit
about
the
impact
of
immigrants,
on
a
municipality
and
in
our
community,
but
I.
There's
a
lot
of
business.
F
Yeah
I'm,
usually
the
moderator
here,
so
if
I
get
in
trouble,
I'm
gonna
turn
it
on
to
you
guys,
yeah.
First
of
all,
I
mean
it
just
we're
so
excited
to
partner
with
the
mayor
and
the
City
of
Boston,
the
state
of
Massachusetts
starting
Sunday,
we're
gonna,
bring
in
7,000
people
here
and
none
of
those
under
30
list
members.
20%
of
them
are
either
immigrants
our
firstborn.
So
you
know
Forbes
known
for
these
billionaires.
It's
kind
of
lottery,
winners,
older!
F
You
know
older
people,
a
lot
of
winners
mean
they
got
they
weren't
horribly,
really
lucky,
but
this
new
group,
this
group,
that
is
going
to
run
this
country
for
the
next
50
years.
20%
of
them,
are
either
forced
firstborn
generation,
Americans
or
immigrants,
and
you
know
we're
lucky
that
every
year
a
lot
of
cities,
don't
worry,
call
us
saying:
hey
bring
the
under
32,
then
our.
F
But
you
know
Boston
is
such
you
know.
We
want
to
pick
a
city,
that's
a
millennial
city
like
Boston.
That's
international!
That's
growing!
You
know,
250,000
students
come
here
every
year
and
of
these
7,000
students,
these
kind
of
young
leaders,
so
many
of
them
are
coming
back
to
Boston
because
they
came
from
your
schools
or
their
first.
Jobs
came
from
the
startups
here,
so
it's
great
to
be
back
so
that
wasn't
even
your
question,
but
on
the
national
level,
it's
amazing
so
of
of
the
400,
the
richest,
mostly
entrepreneurs
in
the
country.
F
10%
of
them
are
immigrants
which
is
shocking.
It's
such
a
big
deal
for
us
that
last
year
we
put.
We
made
the
whole
theme
of
the
four
hundred
about
these.
These
immigrants
that
came
in-
and
you
know
they
had
I-
think
there's
a
250
million
billion
dollars
of
personal
wealth.
That's
just
in
their
bank
account
that's
not
to
mention
economies
and
not
to
mention
you
know
the
jobs
they
create.
So
it's
such
an
important
thing
and
you
know
we
put
on
the
cover
because
we
also
had
this
gentleman
would
cover
as
well.
F
Few
more
there
you're
you're
on
the
fifth
cover.
Will
you
know?
Immigration
is
a
me
they're
coming
because
they
want
to
be
here,
like
you,
they're,
risking
their
their
leaving
their
their
loved
ones,
who
are
leaving
their
home
to
take
a
shot
in
America
and
that
infuses
a
spirit,
and
it
might
be
a
billionaire
company
or
it
might
be
a
local.
You
know
small
business,
and
that
is
injecting
new
ideas
is
injecting
an
energy
and
kind
of
keeps
everyone
going
keeps
this
country
innovating
and
keeping
it.
F
C
I
know
we
at
the
Business
Journal
cover
a
lot
of
fast
growth
companies
out
of
technology
life
sciences,
but
not
all
entrepreneurs
are
focused
on
technology
and
life.
Science
is
actually
a
significant
number
of
less
tech.
Intensive
companies
Forbes
covers
all
types
of
companies.
Talk
a
little
bit
about,
and
the
mayor
loved
to
have
you
talk
about
as
well.
What
are
some
of
the
some
of
the
things
that
you're
seeing
in
terms
of
not
necessarily
non
less
tacking
tens
of
companies
and
in
the
immigrant
communities
that
are
sort
of
finding
them
building
up
companies?
C
You
have
any
examples
of
stories,
you've,
written
or
things
that
you've
seen
in
your
role
as
sort
of
really
some
success
stories
around
non
tech.
We
talk
a
lot
about
tech
in
Boston,
but
I'm
just
curious
what
you
know
what
you're,
seeing?
Maybe
what
we'll
see
this
week
and
and
you
know.
Mr.
mayor,
we
talked
a
little
bit
about
some
of
the
the
neighborhoods
of
Boston
and
the
unemployment
rate
that
we've
seen
coming
up
that
would
probably
fit
into
this
category.
You.
F
F
A
great
example
yeah
right.
The
good
one
example
is
he's
actually
coming
to
Boston
on
Monday,
but
Adam
Newman
who's,
the
founder
of
we
work,
which
is
you're
very
familiar
with
this.
It's
transforming
how
people
work,
how
people
live,
it's
changing
cities
and
he
is
Israeli
and
he
lived
on
a
kibbutz
and
he
took
that
kind
of
social
aspect
and
that
kind
of
social
co
living
space
mixed
it
with
like
American
capitalists
to
drive
and
create
it.
F
We
work-
and
you
know
an
American
is
not
gonna,
probably
is
not
gonna
do
that
it
takes
someone
who
took
his
childhood
in
this
interesting
experiment
and
brought
it
over
now
they
have
a
twenty
billion
dollar
company.
That's
just
a
one
great
example
of
outside
thinking
and
kind
of
meshing
in
old
world,
with
with
the
new
yeah.
D
And
I
think
you
know
for
Boston
when
you
think
about
the
different
sectors.
Our
success
has
not
been
focused
in
putting
all
our
eggs
in
one
basket.
Our
focus
has
been
really
on
seeing
success
of
older
companies,
and
you
know
you
look
at
companies
like
you
know,
Wayfarer
this
in
our
city.
Now
you
look
at
companies
like
I,
know:
they're,
not
necessary
I'm
wearing
companies,
but
Reebok
wanted
to
move
into
Boston
ASIC
wanna
move
into
Boston
all
of
those
companies,
the
insurance
companies.
D
When
I
when
I
ran
for
mayor,
we
were
having
a
deep
conversation
about
talking
about
attracting
new
companies
to
Boston
and
what
we
made
sure
that
was
was
part
of
the
conversation,
as
we
were
talking
about
that
not
to
upset
the
companies
that
have
been
here
for
a
hundred
hundred
plus
years,
because
when
times
get
bad,
those
are
the
companies
that
that
have
withstood
the
test
of
time.
So
I
think
we
have
to
continue
to
that
mix
when
it
comes
to
immigrants.
D
A
lot
of
immigrants,
our
small
business
community
in
Boston
is,
is
loaded
with
immigrants.
You
know
so
we
think
about
we.
When
we
created
the
Office
of
Economic
Development,
which
is
led
by
John
bardos
who's
here
with
us
today,
you
know
really
focusing
on
small
businesses
and
we
moved
Main
Street
the
Main
Street
program
from
what
was
in
Department
Neighborhood
Development
over
to
economic
development,
because
we
just
saw
the
number
of
small
businesses
in
the
city
that
were
popping
up.
D
If
you
take
them,
that's
our
largest
employer
in
the
in
the
city
of
Boston,
our
small
businesses,
and
so
you
put
them
all
together,
they're
bigger
than
anybody.
We
have.
So
it's
important
for
us
to
remember
that
and
continue
to
diversify.
Businesses
encourage
people
when
we
did
the
bowling
building
over
in
Dorchester.
You
know
we
talked
about
we
work
and
we
have
mass
challenge.
D
We
created
another
incubator
type
of
space
in
the
bone
building
because
of
Roxbury
making
sure
that
as
we're
thinking
about
this
innovative
economy,
we
want
to
tap
into
the
kids
of
color,
particularly
african-american
kids,
and
a
lot
of
Cape
Verdean
kids
that
are
around
the
ball
and
building.
How
do
we
make
sure
they
have
places
to
go
mm-hmm.
D
C
One
of
the
I
think
it
was
so
John's
Department.
In
the
past
year,
you
came
out
with
a
whole
small
business
report
that
was
largely
focused
on
solving
the
problems
of
immigrant
founders
and
entrepreneurs.
I
mean
you,
you
really
taken
that
approach
to
to
helping
small
business
and
partnering
small
business
to
through
the
lens
of
I,
think
entrepreneurship
and
immigration
to.
D
Say
yeah
absolutely
Steve
said
you
know,
people
aren't
afraid
to
try
and
sneak
against
the
United
States
of
America
and
just
like
that.
They
so
because
of
who
they
are
and
what
they've
come
from.
They're,
not
afraid
to
make
investments
and
just
put
everything
on
the
line
and
try
and
start
a
business
and
grow
a
business
and
take
that
jump
where
other
people
might
be
a
little
hesitant
and
I.
D
C
So
you
mentioned
daca
I
want
to
bring
that
up
just
because
the
president's
giving
Congress
six
months
to
come
up
with
a
solution
to
his
repeal
of
daca
I.
Think
everybody
here
knows
the
numbers:
800,000
daca
recipients
nationwide.
There
are
7,000
here
in
Massachusetts,
I'm,
just
curious.
If
you
could
talk
a
little
bit
about
what
your
office
in
Boston
is
doing,
to
help
the
dreamers
that
you
know
the
kids
who
are
here
because
their
parents,
you
know,
came
in
illegally,
but
they
were
born
here.
D
I
mean
I
think
we're
trying
to
make
people
feel
comfortable.
There's
not
a
lot,
though,
unfortunately,
at
this
point
that
we
can
do
Emmylou
it
with
training
people
on
how
to
become
citizens.
I
think
out
of
this
move
might
by
the
president.
You
might
see
a
pathway
to
citizenship
for
some
folks
and
if
they're
raised
we're
training
people
on
how
to
become
citizens
and
telling
them
what
they
have
to
learn
and
the
paperwork
that
they
fill
out.
D
But
a
lot
of
us
me,
as
both
Republicans
and
Democrats
behind
the
scenes,
were
working
to
make
sure
that
the
Affordable
Care
Act
was
protected
because
of
the
impacts
would
have
on
the
economies
of
cities
and
towns
all
across
America
I
think
the
same
will
be
said
and
has
to
be
done
by
mayor's
across
America
to
rally
around
together
to
talk
about
the
importance
of
of
the
daca
program
in
the
importance
of
what
daca
means,
I
mean
I,
think
Massachusetts.
We
talked
about
about
seven
thousand
participants,
550
million
dollars
of
GDP.
D
That's
that's
a
lot
of
money
in
Massachusetts,
and
you
know
that
what
could
turn
that'll
turn
a
lot
of
cities
and
towns
upside
down.
It
might
not
rain
bak,
it
might
not
long-term
I'm
sure
in
Boston
upside
down,
but
we're
talking
about
cities
and
towns
that
are
so
dependent
upon
folks
said
that
are
in
important
jobs
and
smaller
cities
and
towns.
So
I
think.
D
F
Fascinating
to
see
you
know
with
the
mayors
of
this
country
here
you
know
you
want
something
done,
ask
a
man,
you
know
you've
got
to
make
sure
everything's
functioning
and
whether
it's
immigration
or
climate
change,
or
you
name
it
very
interesting,
seeing
how
they're
keeping
this
country
together.
But
you
know
to
win
federal
federal
administration
kind
of
shakes
it
up.
You
guys,
you
know,
holding
it
together
on
the
business
side,
it's
great
to
see.
You
know
whether
it's
you
know
Tim
Cook
or
Mark
Zuckerberg.
All
these
people
come
out
with
talking
against.
F
This
is
dekha
thing
and
red
print
in
the
forefront
and
I,
don't
know
what
they
can
do.
I
mean
they're
using
their
platform
using
their
power
as
leaders
and
a
lot
of
people
as
as
role
models
to
maybe
you
know,
share
their
side
the
story
and
kind
of
push
this
forward.
But,
like
you
said
you
just
kind
of
put
it
on
the
back
burner
again
and
just
take
it
down
there,
but.
D
It's
gonna
have
to
be
mass,
I
mean
I
mean
companies.
Companies
can
some
companies
can
have
the
ability
to
move
their
services
to
another
place
where
immigration
is
laxed
or
not
lack
solutions
it
lacks.
Immigration
is
more
accepted
like
Canada,
but
honestly
we
have
to
marys
have
to
look
and
say
you
know
when
I
had
that
meeting
I
talked
about
the
meeting
with
the
the
CEOs
and
the
business
people.
That
concerned
me
because
I'm
thinking
to
myself,
you
know
I,
take
pride
in
in
in
building
up
our
population.
D
D
Oh
yeah
a
whole
different
conversation
for
different,
but
I
will
say
this
I
mean
I.
Think
that
as
a
mayor,
you
get
concerned
about
what
these
continually
attacks
me
on
an
immigrant
population,
because
you
know
at
some
point:
somebody's
not
gonna
want
to
sneak
into
the
United
States
of
America,
they're,
gonna,
say:
okay,
let's
try
someplace
else,
that's
more
open
and
or
maybe
we
should
try.
You
know
see
if
we
can
make
Europe
work.
D
What's
next,
I
mean
I
won
hard
after
FiOS,
because
when
I
was
running
for
mayor
Kansas
City
was
getting
fiber-optic
cable
laid
around
the
city
of
Boston
we
won
had
after
you
know
some
of
these
companies
that
have
come
into
our
into
our
city,
because
I
didn't
want
them
to
go
to
New
York
we're
gonna
go
after
Hyde
after
another
little
company
coming
up
here
and
we'll
hopefully
we'll
forget
them,
we
get
them.
If
we
don't,
we
don't,
but
we're
not
gonna
we're,
not
gonna,
leave
anything
on
the
table
and
not
move
forward
and
I.
D
Think
that
having
having
the
talent
pool
here
in
Boston,
you
know
Babson
College
created
special
program
for
immigrants.
Umass
Boston
has
the
in-state
tuition
bill,
in-state
tuition
for
immigrants.
Those
are
two
programs
that
are
trying
to
attract
talent
here.
If
the
talent
can't
come
in
we're
not
going
to
attract
it
there,
when.
D
Huge
I
mean
so
I
mean
you
go
to
all
the
schools
in
and
another
investment
being
made
a
lot
of
these
a
lot
of
the
schools.
I
would
be
you
the
other
day,
a
lot
of
the
investments
that
are
building
buildings
and
science
buildings.
They
may
probably
students
that
that
are
foreign
students
that
came
here
to
learn,
mm-hmm
and
then
they've,
investing
hundreds
of
millions
of
dollars
into
building
new
buildings
and
and
and
and
they're,
not
looking
for
anything.
Now
that
may
be
the
name
on
the
side
of
building.
D
E
D
D
Papi
Pedro
won
us
the
World
Series
in
2004
and
and
even
now,
I
mean
I
mean
you
think
about
sports,
and
you
know
it's
a
lot
of
conflict
about.
You
know
taking
a
knee
and
we're
not
taking
a
knee.
But
when
you
look
at
when
you
look
at
our
sports
in
whether
it's
hockey
basketball
football
baseball,
it's
international,
a
basketball
program,
basketball
NBA,
is
getting
more
and
more
International
Hockey,
obviously
been
international
for
a
long
time.
You
can
in
there's
other
countries
that
are
being
involved
in
this.
D
C
Right,
let's
work
on
that,
so
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
audience
participation.
I
do
have
another
question
related
to
Canada
because
you
keep
bringing
it
up
but
I'm
gonna,
I'm,
gonna,
I'm
gonna.
Let
some
folks
in
the
room
ask
these
two
guys
a
question:
if
you
have
one,
we
have
a
mic,
that's
ready
to
go
you!
Okay,
yep.
G
My
name
is
shir
to
leave
and
I'm
a
perfect
example
of
immigrants
being
successful
in
this
country.
I
started
as
a
tailor
and
ultimately
opened
a
bank,
and
now
I
run
a
bank
in
Boston
and
surrounding
communities,
but
one
of
the
things
you
talked
about
Babson
and
other
places
having
students
there.
So
we
used
to
go
and
recruit
from
flies
from
various
universities
who
has
come
to
get
the
education.
This
is
the
first
year
what
we
are
seeing
is
they
don't
have
a
confidence
to
stay
here.
G
So
when
we
go
and
talk
to
them,
they
see
or
know
after
I
graduate
I'm
gonna
go
back
to
my
country.
There
was
not
the
case
before
before
they
will
say:
okay,
somebody
filed
our
h1
visa
and
we're
willing
to
stay
here.
How?
How
do
you
recommend
that
we
build
that
evidence
and
those
people
that
they
would
want
to
have
somebody
sponsor
them?
They
want
to
stay
here
so.
C
D
Tell
them
I
think
what
we
have
to
do
is
continue
to
pass
positive
messages
about
our
city,
being
an
open,
inclusive
city
and
I'm,
going
to
continue
to
do
that.
You
know
it's
important
when
I,
when
I,
when
I
first
got
elected
mayor
I,
was
at
HBS,
so
intial
meeting,
Dan
Cole,
my
chief
of
staff,
former
chief
of
staff,
was
with
me
and
afterwards
they
asked
what
percentage
of
the
HBS
graduates
every
year
stay
in
Boston
as
a
message.
D
This
is
I
think
it
was
like
five
percent
and
I'm
thinking
we're
losing
95
percent
of
the
talent
best
talent
in
the
world,
or
some
of
the
best
town
in
the
world
coming
to
Cambridge,
which
is
next
door
bar.
Actually
it's
in
Boston
HBS
and
losing
them
I'm
like
how
do
we?
What
do
we
do
to
recruit
more
and
keep
more
people
here?
The
same
is
said
for
immigrants,
and
why
would
we
loo?
D
Why
would
we
let
this
talent
go
and
that's
what
I
can't
quite
figure
out
what
Washington
is
missing
here,
that
we
have
the
best
and
brightest
that
come
to
our
schools?
Many
of
them
come
to
Wentworth
right
next
door
to
the
president.
Wentworth
I
mean
we're
losing
this.
These
talented
engineers
and
architects
to
other
places
I
mean
that
just
doesn't
make
sense
to
me.
H
Good
morning,
so
you
know
happening
real-time.
We
just
heard
about
sakra
us
and
I
think
50.
Here
the
ice
activity
and
arrests
and
seizures
that
have
taken
place
and
the
news
is
reporting.
If
some
of
the
news
is
reported
already
more
than
half
that
number
had
no
criminal
record
and
of
the
ones
that
did
have
a
criminal
record.
It
was
mainly
driven
by
DUI
one
of
the
things
our
young
people
are
dealing
with,
and
immigrants
in
general
are
the
fear
of
being
sent
back
to
their
countries
and
I'm
just
wondering
you
know.
H
Daca
was
the
sort
of
first
wave
of
this,
and
then
you,
you
heard
okay.
Well,
it
may
be
a
few
more
months,
but
with
this
most
recent
event,
that
happened
just
I
guess
last
night,
you
know
what
do
we
do
here?
How
do
we
help
to
shore
up
the
confidence
in
the
young
people
that
are,
you
know
fearful
whether
they're
you
know
third
graders
or
they're
30
years
old,
I'm,
just
interested
in
your
perspective,
yeah.
D
We're
trying
to
confirm
right
now,
if
actually
20,
of
the
30
20
of
the
50,
if
they
were,
if
they
were
arrested
for
for
being
just
being
here-
and
we
have
a
good
friend
that
yet
because
the
first
reports
were,
everyone
had
a
hit
a
felony
and
the
person
was
grabbed
in
Boston
was
a
person.
I
believe
was
didn't
register
as
a
sex
offender
which
the
crime
and
obviously
got
arrested.
So
we
haven't
confirmed
that,
but
in
saying
that
it's
gonna
get.
If
the
federal
government
continues.
D
D
You
know
we
have
health
centers,
that
a
lot
of
our
undocumented
immigrants
will
go
and
get
treatment
for
they're
gonna
stop
going
to
health
centers,
and
then
we
gonna
stop
going
to
churches.
They're
gonna,
stop
going
it
just
stops
in
their
kids
to
school.
I
visit
a
couple
schools
a
week
in
Boston
the
high
schools,
meaning
I
visit
high
school,
but
my
I'm
not
sure
my
school's,
every
single
time
I
go
into
a
school
and
every
time
I've
gone
to
a
school.
D
For
the
last
year,
a
young
child
has
grabbed
me
and
talked
to
me
about
something
to
the
effect
of
will.
You
protect
my
fam,
so
they're
learning
under
these
circumstances,
so
they're
hearing
it
at
home
because
they're
not
just
making
it
up
the
hearing
at
home.
So
it's
pretty
scary,
what's
going
on
out
there
and
I
think
you
know
Alejandra
and
her
team
has
done
a
great
amount
of
work
to
raise
awareness.
D
We
do
we
do
these
clinics
that
the
Public
Libraries
Commissioner
Evans,
coming
out
and
saying
that
we
will
not
be
part
of
any
type
of
ice
raids
and
very
clear
on
the
fact
that
we
are.
We
are
a
city
of
immigrants
and
then
we
support
immigrants
any
time
that
we
hear
a
rumor
that
you
know,
somebody
in
the
police
department
or
something
is,
is
in
helping
give
information.
We
look
right
into
it
right
away
to
make
sure
it's
not
accurate,
so
we're
in
tricky
times
right
now.
D
Up
until
this
point,
it's
all
been
threats
and
hearsay
now
we're
starting
to
see
a
little
more
activity.
You
know,
so
we
have
to
keep
an
eye
on
it.
I,
don't
have
a
good
answer
for
you
other
than
that
I
mean
I,
like
you
know,
I
can
get
in
front
of
a
camera
and
go
after
the
White
House
and
US
Attorney,
and
all
that
all
day
long,
but
unfortunately
I
don't
have
that
power.
D
I
I
Do
you
think
that
our
immigrant
status
is
going
to
help
and
Steve
I?
Think
in
particular,
it'll
be
good
to
get
your
perspective
across
the
nation
to
to
get
a
sense
of
what
you
see
from
the
other
cities.
I
think
Boston
has
been
talked
about,
is
really
one
of
the
forerunners
for
this.
This
move
for
Amazon
yeah,
no.
D
I
long
I
want
to
say
is,
is
I,
don't
think
the
immigrant,
the
immigration
issues,
even
even
as
a
consideration
for
Amazon
in
this
it
doesn't
matter
by
the
time
that
Amazon
chooses
a
city
in
America
by
the
time
they
actually
start
to
build
their
first
building.
This
showdown
in
Washington
will
be
over.
We
will
have
switched
the
page
and
gone
on
to
it,
somebody
new
and
so
and
I
can't
imagine
the
next
person
coming
in
whoever
that
is
democrat
or
republican
operating
in
the
same
same
light
as
this
White
House.
D
F
In
just
in
terms
of
you
know,
we
were
looking
for
cities.
The
fact
that
GE
was
picked
was
joining
that
you
guys
want
to
bid
they
put
their
corporate
headquarters.
Here.
That's
such
a
great
signal
that
something's
happening
here
and
place
companies.
You
know
technology
and
engineering
touches
every
business
these
days
and
you
know
I
think
people
are
fighting
to
be
close
to
the
the
universities
here,
especially
I,
think
MIT
and
Harvard
for
the
high
tech.
It's
been
a
great
drawer
cuz.
F
They
want
to
be
where
this
new
talent
is,
and
they
they're
gonna,
set
up
shop
right
here,
I'm
sure,
if
Amazon
even
doesn't
put
their
second
headquarters
here.
You
know
you
see
whether
it's
Microsoft,
your
Facebook
or
Google
and
IBM
they're
all
putting
giant
headquarters
here,
because
they
need
to
be
closed.
So
this
is
a
growing
city,
it's
a
great
lifestyle
for
people
and
they
want
to
be
near
the
talent
and
that's
the
universities.
So
that
is
such
a
huge
thing.
I
mean
no
other
town.
C
G
D
I
think
that
that
helps
and
other
business
leaders
that
have
been
here
for
a
long
time
and
I
think
that
that's
helping
us
as
well,
because
we
have
always
had
the
school
and
education
we've
always
had
the
talent
pool,
but
now,
like
we're,
actually
going
a
little
further
I
know
when
our
Hospital
presidents
are
going
around
different
places,
they're
talking
about
Boston
in
a
different
light
and
I,
think
all
of
that's
happening
and
I.
Think
that
that's
something
that's
you
know
you
have.
You
have
a
lot
of
more
tech
companies.
D
D
It
was
your
conversation
all
right,
I
want
is.
We
want
I
want
to
get
strings,
I'm
thinking
about
promoting
Boston
next
thing.
You
know
we're
in
the
running
for
the
Forbes
30
under
30,
because
some
changes
happened
in
the
other
another
city,
and
you
know
so
all
of
a
sudden.
Now
that's
if
David
didn't
put
that
dinner
together,
you
might
you're,
probably
not
in
Boston
and
I,
think
that
those
that's
also
it's
the
marketing
piece
of
how
business
leaders
have
been
talking
about
us
in
a
whole
different
light.
D
F
Yeah
and
real
quick
I
mean
obviously
I
mentioned
people.
The
businesses
want
to
be
the
other
talent
in
the
universities,
but
also
you
want
to
set
up
a
headquarters
where
your
employees
and
your
best
people
already
with
the
company,
want
to
live
and
not
to
name
names.
But
you
hear
companies
move
in
places
for
tech
been
tax
benefits,
but
no
one
wants
to
pick
up
and
move
to
tho.
That
area
of
the
country.
I
think
Boston
is
an
attractive
place,
no
matter
where
you
are
right,
the
move
is
it's
a
great
lifestyle.
Well,.
C
D
Last
statement,
everyone
think
of
one
here
today
for
coming
out
for
this
lunch,
and
this
is
an
exciting.
This
is
an
exciting
week
in
Boston
last
year.
It
was
just
amazing,
watching
all
these
people
come
from
all
over
the
world
to
Boston
kind
of
just
floating
around
and
being,
if
you
get
a
chance
to
kind
of
take
part
in
any
of
the
events,
take
part
in
something,
because
it's
incredible
watching
all
this
young
talent.
