NYC, 3 more states file lawsuit against Trump rules on immigrants receiving public aid
"Generations of citizens landed on the welcoming shores of Ellis Island with nothing more than a dream in their pockets," said New York Attorney General Letitia James
Yeah, Ellis Island immigrants were not to be wards of the state. They didn't get welfare. My grandfather got nothing when he arrived except a medical checkup and his last name altered. For those who have been here and on welfare/assistance, the fairest step is give them 3 or so months to get off completely.
