Engelhart Visits with Houston Pakistani Leaders
On Sunday, September 28, 2008, the engelhart4judge.com 2008 green hybrid coasted silently in electric-only mode over to Hillcroft in southwest Houston to meet with the Pakistani American Public Affairs Committee. Mike got a chance to speak to the members of the organization. There were more than 40 Democratic candidates in attendance, and only a handful of Republicans. Mike's opponent did not show up to meet with this important constituency, without explanation.
Mike related the story of his grandmother to the people in attendance. She came to this country as a little girl. She had to journey thousands of miles, hidden under blankets in carts and wagons by her older brothers, to escape the Soviet Pogroms. A 1992 book was written about her experiences. When she arrived, she came through Ellis Island, and later married a Union organizer. So not only does Mike descend from a woman who risked her life to come to the United States, he also descends from a man who fought for basic worker's rights in this country from the 1930s on. This seemed to resonate with the room full of immigrants who have come to the US to make a better life for themselves and their families. This would be a terrific endorsement for Mike and he would be deeply honored to receive it.
