TEXT: Ronald Reagan had a different vision for America

President Reagan: In my mind it was a tall, proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, and if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here.  That's how I saw it, and see it still.

Notes:  According to its website:

"The National Immigration Forum Action Fund was formed to increase the profile of policy issues that matter to immigrants, and to influence federal legislation to benefit immigrants.

"The Action Fund focuses on legislative issues and leaves space for issue advocacy through public education and communications. The primary purpose of the Action Fund is not on partisan political activity, but rather to work closely with key constituencies and elected and appointed policymakers from across the political spectrum to forge practical, commonsense solutions to fix our broken immigration system."
