“Everywhere immigrants have enriched and strengthened the fabric of American life.”

These words were written by President John F. Kennedy, Jr. in his 1958 book, A Nation of Immigrants, where he discuss the history of immigration in the United States a made a case for liberalizing our immigration laws.

He also wrote that: 

“Immigration is by definition a gesture of faith in social mobility. It is the expression in action of a positive belief in the possibility of a better life. It has thus contributed greatly to developing the spirit of personal betterment in American society and to strengthening the national confidence in change and the future.”

Are we continuing to live up to Kennedy’s words in 2026?
