The butterfly is a powerful symbol of immigrants.
It also calls to mind Pavel Friedmann's poem:
"Only I never saw another butterfly.
That butterfly was the last one.
Butterflies don't live in here, in the ghetto."

Miller, as everyone in the administration & beyond knows, just wants to reduce ALL immigration. He's said as much.
But this new Public Charge rule, which they're saying could be published in Final Form any day now, will have the add on effect of potentially killing people, too.
