Is America still committed to the ideal that we are a nation of immigrants?

Then why does USCIS, the agency that oversees legal immigration, feel slighted by the administration and Congress?

Faced with a 2020 income shorfall, the ageny has been forced to start issuing furlough notices to over 13,400 employees. That's over 60% of their entire work force.

Yet, neither the administration nor Congress has responded to the USCIS request for emergency funding.
