Existing comment: “YOU CAN GO BACK TO WHEREVER YOU CAME FROM”

As the judiciary committees in both the House and Senate prepared sweeping immigration reform, Herblock indicated his approval for the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 by showing President Johnson and the 89th Congress ready to remove “immigration snobbery” from the Statue of Liberty. The act opened the doors of the United States to all highly-educated and skilled legal emigrants, and not just those coming from Great Britain, Ireland, and Germany.
