We remember this history with pride because such grants brought to our shores people who built not only the State of Texas. but the wealthiest Nation on Earth. The time for free land is over. But as the son of immigrants. I ask from the sons and daughters of earlier settlers a simple promise to those who came later: If you come here legally. if you work hard. if you pay your taxes. and abide by our laws. and fall on hard times through no fault of your own. you will be eligible to help your sick child. or infirm wife. That is simple human decency.
