The work ethic of the mayor should."Ramos is a first-generation American who says she feels a deep sense of responsibility in bridging the gap between immigrant and non-immigrant communities as her mother crossed the Mexican border by herself at 24, and her father was arrested in a workplace immigration raid in the early 1980s and spent days held in a detention center.
