This appears to be a terroristic threat coming from the governor.
Who is sitting around thinking “wow, there are way too many White people in this neighborhood. We need more Blacks, Pakistanis and Hondurans”?
Gov. Andrew Cuomo today rolled out an array of programs aimed at helping immigrants residing in New York to become citizens—which he vowed would change the demographics and politics of the Empire State.
The governor unveiled his new NaturalizeNY agenda at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in Manhattan this afternoon, and claimed the package of joint public-private initiatives would lubricate the process of becoming a full-fledged American for as many as one million green card-holders across the state. NaturalizeNY will offer eligibility screenings, preparatory courses for the citizenship exam,help completing forms and run a lottery that would pay the $680 federal fee for 2,000 randomly chosen lower-middle-income immigrants.
“Just think about that. Just think about how it would change the state. Change the complexion of the state. One million people added to the 18 million people who are now citizens in the state of New York,” the governor said, alluding to the state’s long history as the entryway to America for new arrivals from foreign lands. “Maybe the complexion changes. Maybe the religion changes. Maybe the accent changes. But the lesson stays the same. Welcome to this beautiful state of New York.”
The governor insisted that access to the voting booth is an integral benefit of citizenship, and suggested conservative lawmakers have deliberately inserted unnecessary hurdles into the process.
“You add one million citizens to the voting rolls in this state, that’s a significant, significant difference. You do that nationwide, it’s a significant difference,” he said. “So if you have your conspiracy hat on, you’d say some people would say they have kept it purposely difficult to become a citizen.”
In particular he targeted the $680 surcharge, slightly misquoting a line from Emma Lazarus’s “New Colossus”—the sonnet inscribed on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty.
“‘Give me your poor.’ It didn’t say ‘give me your poor who can afford a $680 citizenship,’” he insisted. “If I had my way it would be free. If I had my way the state would subsidize every eligible application, period. Because it would b e an investment for this state that would pay dividends.
Someone who doesn’t have $680 dollars might not be someone you want to make a citizen, maybe?
That seems like it’s already a pretty low bar there, buddy.
