HUGHES: “The question is not what America owes me by virtue of my ancestry, the question is what all Americans owe each other by virtue of being citizens of the same nation,” Hughes said. “And the obligation of citizenship is not transactional. It’s not contingent on ancestry. It never expires, and it can’t be paid off. For all these reasons, bill HR 40 is a moral and political mistake.”
COHEN: "Thank you, Mr. Hughes. Chill, chill, chill, chill. He was presumptive but he still has a right to speak.”
