An Immigrant's Tale

This immigrant American writes about a famous immigrant American couple who has given back to our country.    - - Donna Poisl

FROM PETER A. GEORGESCU

We have a lot of different feelings about immigrants. Once, we wanted to be a magnet for people fleeing other places. We wanted their energy, their desperate desire to make good. Give us your tired, your poor, your huddled masses. That was the spirit of the thing. It used to be our invitation to the rest of the world.

These days, not so much.

This week the Senate of the United States will commence debate on an immigration law. It's a critical issue for America and all Americans. Personally, I think it's cause for celebration if we can reach a fair and wise solution to our immigration challenge. It's beyond time we address openly an issue which is both economically and morally vital to a better America.
