immigration laws
In response to the "why can't these migrants come here legally like my grandparents?" I am researching some reasons why.
I'll find out the law on immigration as it existed from the late 1890's and early 1900's when the influx of most "migrants" got her and compare it to the system now in place.
Maybe that alone will show "why" people chose to cross the border and come here via leagl means.
It may take me a while to do the real legal research but I am determined to do it. Not to prove others wrong, but for my own curiousity.
