Double Take Left - What course should the federal government take regarding information? The contentious issue of immigration will soon reappear on the congressional agenda. Too often inordinate fear or simple prejudice scarred the American heritage of absorbing and assimilating waves of immigrants. Like past arrivals of immigrants, some eventually go home, some stay and become citizens, and some go back and forth.
