My mother was an immigrant to this country. She came as a child with her parents and siblings and stood in line on Ellis Island waiting to be inter 8ewed and approved to cross the channel into New York.

Fortunately they were approved and made their way to Mansfield, Ohio, where friends had arranged a jod for my grandfather at the Ohio Brass Company. Others were not so fortunate, and had to return to the country from which they came.

The people crossing our southern border these days are criminals who have no regard for the laws and values of our land. They should be compelled to to return to their own countries and get in line just like my mother and her family did.

When they are approved to enter legally I will welcome them with open arms, just as my mother was welcomed a century ago.
