Gateway To The World?

Do you remember back when they used to let all people come to America, and how that relates to what's happening today?

There was once a time when foreigners were welcome here. A real POTUS once assured everyone that a new bill does not affect the lives of millions. It will not reshape the structure of our daily lives. That president was hardly the type to downplay the importance of his own work. But in this case, neither #LBJ nor his allies realized what they had set in motion. The law’s transformative impact would take years to reveal itself.
