'Congratulations to all the Immigrads. I know that this is a virtual ceremony but it is very real. And it's very real to all of the families and all of you and your communities. I want you guys to know that you matter and that your experiences are a huge part of the American story,' Selena began her speech while talking about her own family backstory. 'When my family came here from Mexico, they set into motion my American story, as well as theirs.
