“Don’t go running back into a burning house just because it’s cold outside.”

The logic of this, the same logic for why non-citizens wouldn't risk voting, is so obvious after just 5 seconds of thought. It's a certain kind of madness that it has to be demonstrated time and time again.

American immigrants are upwardly mobile. While first-generation immigrants earn less than the average American, their children go on to earn more.
