USCIS Director Announces They Will Put America First In Mission Statement

The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services department announced that they will move towards an ‘America First’ approach to their responsibilities. They now promise to prioritize the the interests of American citizens in their decision-making as well as consider national security and safety as their primary concern moving forward.

Why this wasn’t the case before is beyond me. Here’s the full statement by current USCIS Director Lee Francis Cissna:

“In my short time as director of USCIS, I continue to be impressed by the commitment and dedication that employees throughout the agency have shown toward our common goals. USCIS employees are passionate about upholding the rule of law and ensuring the integrity of our immigration system. I’ve always known this and have seen it confirmed again and again in my meetings with you during visits I have made to field offices and service centers.

Sorry, but if they are making this their "mission statement" now, I'm going to say that, in the past, they have been doing the "exact" opposite. LOL

Well, I had never heard of this agency. Looked it up. Since it was formed in 2003, I think we can guess what its prior mission had been....

I would like to see every federal department, agency, etc., (anything funded by tax dollars or grants that come from tax dollars) adopt this same philosophy.

I attended a naturalization ceremony about a decade or more ago. Let me tell you, it was revolting to hear liberals talk down the US during the ceremony. Like, no matter who you are, if you don’t come from America you must be better people than if you did.

And reading my granddaughter’s history book, there’s no reason to expect native born Americans to be all that much better. Sigh . . .
