Ask Melania to share her immigration story
In light of the breaking news that Melania Trump violated the law by working without a visa, Define American reaffirms that we stand by all patriotic American immigrants, regardless of documentation or status. We encourage Melania to join others by sharing her full immigration story and have relaunched our petition to ask her to “come out.”
