"Empecé a involucrarme cada vez más en la reforma migratoria porque era tal desperdicio de vidas, tal desperdicio de potencial, un desperdicio tan grande para nuestro país no tener el capital humano que desarrollamos, orientado a mejorar toda nuestra socied"
— Laurene Powell Jobs
Simplified Meaning:
The person who says this is talking about how important it is to support immigration reform because it helps everyone, not just immigrants. They believe that when immigrants are given opportunities, they can contribute greatly to society. For example, think of a smart student from another country who wants to study and work hard in the U.S. If they are allowed to stay, they might become a doctor, teacher, or engineer who helps lots of people. If they are not allowed to stay, their skills go to waste, and everyone loses out on what they could have offered. The person sees immigration reform as a way to unlock this potential, making the whole country better and stronger. By supporting policies that allow these talented people to contribute, we can all benefit from their hard work and dedication.
