Some came here longer ago than others, but they were immigrants nonetheless. My maternal grandparents both came from Poland and my paternal grandfather's parents (great grandparents) both came from Ireland. So I'm very lucky to be here! And that's true for every American - including TFG.

Texas and Arizona should just accept this as their duty and take care of them. Why should other states have to deal with this?
