Why we need a new conversation on immigration
The military parade in the nation’s capital June 14 kicked off a series of events to mark America’s 250th anniversary, ending with next year’s grand celebration of the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776.
The ideals expressed in the Declaration, not our military power, have always been what make America great.
Ours is the first nation founded on principles rooted in the Jewish and Christian Scriptures, the truth that all men and women are created equal, with God-given dignity and rights that can never be denied by any government.
