Illegal immigration to be explored at Lifetree Cafe

LEWISTON — Growing controversy and national division surrounding the immigration policy will be discussed at 6 p.m. Thursday, April 12, at Lifetree Cafe.

The program, titled “In the News: Illegal Immigration,” provides an opportunity for participants to discuss the recent controversy surrounding the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival program, or DACA for short.

“There’s no shortage of opinions surrounding the issue of illegal immigration,” says Lifetree Cafe Director Craig Cable. “This is an hour dedicated to understanding the issue, respectfully sharing thoughts and opinions, and even hearing from someone directly affected by DACA.”

During the program, participants will have an opportunity to share their ideas to fix the nation’s immigration policy.

Admission to the 60-minute event is free. The cafe is located at South Lewiston Baptist Church, 1919 Lisbon Road.
