“There was an orderly process for admitting immigrants at Ellis Island. But immigrants who showed up at Ellis Island did not need an invitation—or permission—to do so. All they needed was a ticket on a ship going to New York City. … The arrival of[Stephen] Miller’s ancestors in the United States is not an example of aspiring immigrants complying with a cumbrous and Kafkaesque body of immigration regulation; it is an example of something close to the kind of extremely permissive immigration policy advanced in our time by certain libertarians …. I myself favor a more restrictive immigration policy than the one that was in place when Miller’s antecedents passed through Ellis Island, one that also is in some ways more restrictive than current practice and in some ways more liberal.” (11/11/26)
