J.B. Pritzker shared a statement on social media recounting his family's arrival in the U.S. with limited means. He acknowledged the role of those who welcomed and supported his family, and stated that immigrants belong in the U.S. According to Pritzker, hard work and the pursuit of freedom were fundamental values that brought his family to the country. The comments add another perspective to ongoing dialogues regarding immigration and the role of community support in enabling immigrant success in the U.S.
