Elizabeth Cohen wrote a recent op-ed piece for The Washington Post,
where she considers "who deserves to be a U.S. citizen?" by looking at
how America's founding fathers handled the issue. It's something, she
says, that "we've been grappling with since our country’s earliest
days. The founders had a clear answer: People who immigrated and spent
years building lives in this country deserved citizenship," concludes
