“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses
yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless,
tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
- Emma Lazarus’ sonnet "New Colossus"
inscribed on a plaque at The Statue of Liberty
Above came from an ACLU email.
