Understand why immigrants continue to arrive, by air, sea, and land, at the gate guarded by Lady Liberty, a keeper of the American dream. The United States holds a light up for the entire world to see. By welcoming hardworking peoples from every background and creed, the United States offers the best of a free market economy and freedom of liberty for its citizens. Poet Emma Lazarus captured the essence of Lady Liberty by writing: Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, With conquering limbs astride from land to land;Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name MOTHER OF EXILES. From her beacon-hand Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame. Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp! cries she With silent lips. Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!
