All Immigrants Should Become a United States Citizen The United States is built off of immigration with the influxes of immigrants from all around the world. Immigrants come all the way from germany to across the pacific ocean. Immigrants have also came here for the reason that they heard there is better jobs and a more luxurious lifestyle. Most of the immigrants came with special requirements that only certain jobs will accept. These immigrants are know as economy boosters. All immigrants and aliens with a legal status should have a more accessible and easier way to gain citizenship because they already have a temporary allegiance to the United States, they are working law abiding citizens, and they will boost the economy with the jobs they can get from becoming a citizen. Next there are many type of forms that are needed to stay in the US. Of these types of forms are asylum forms, visitors forms, employment forms, freedom of information forms, fiancee forms, students forms, business forms, immigration and naturalization forms (All USCIS Application and petition Form Types Par. 3). The Asylum form gives citizenship to people that have come from another country because of persecution of race, religion, nationality, or political group (Asylum Par. 2-6). The Visitor visa allows non citizens that want to come to the United States for reasons other than business or pleasure to stay in the United States for a filled
Millions of unregistered immigrants ought to be able to live and add the u. s. without worrying of obtaining deported. Most these folks were brought over after they were young, having given them no management over things at that age. Also, the opposite majority have lived here for over
Illegal immigration has become more of an important issue in the United States since Donald Trump’s campaign for president in 2016. Immigration can be known as the act of people crossing national borders to live permanently in other countries. It becomes illegal when they cross those borders without the legal right to be in those countries. The U.S. has been an immigrant country since the pilgrims in the 1600s and has ever since, been diverse. Most of the immigrants are Latinos that come from Central America, but they also come from all over the world. The current path to legal citizenship is flawed and needs to be reformed to allow rights to be upheld, equal and fair treatment of all applicants, and to facilitate the process altogether.
Immigrants aren’t given the rights that they should be. Throughout history, immigrants haven’t been given the opportunities they deserve. When certain races came to America, they were always unwanted. New immigration process would benefit many people.
One important reason that there should be a path citizenship is that immigrants could boost economics. According to Upfront Magazine 2016, immigrants should get a path to citizenship because far too many people cross the borders,
Who deserves to be a citizen of the United States (U.S.)? The founders of The United States of America believed people who immigrated and spent years building lives in this country deserved citizenship. They were also keenly aware that making new immigrants wait for citizenship while denying them the very rights that Americans had just fought to claim for themselves would be detrimental to our relatively new and fragile country. Today, it’s a question President Barack Obama and Congress have been trying to answer. As the President and lawmakers, alike, negotiate the contours of an immigration reform bill, they should keep in mind that the granting of legal status to undocumented immigrants would be a boon for the United States’ economy. Moreover, allowing undocumented immigrants to become U.S. citizens would be equally beneficial to America. Legal status and citizenship enable undocumented immigrants to produce and earn significantly more than they do when they are on the economic sidelines. The resulting productivity and wage gains ripple through the economy because immigrants are not just workers, but they are also consumers and taxpayers. Once illegal immigrants are granted citizenship, the newly welcomed citizens can begin to spend their increased earnings on goods and services that will stimulate demand in the United States’ economy, which will, ultimately, help create jobs and expand the economy as well.
The United States is a country that has always drawn much of its strength from having people come here and add to the energy and prosperity of the country. Immigrants who have chosen to make the difficult and challenging choice to move to America have often been some of the most productive citizens of the countries they left behind. They are, by nature, driven people who were willing to take the risk of pulling up roots and moving. As a result, the United States has, for the most part, gotten the benefit of talented and committed citizens who have raised our culture and our standard of living. Right now our country is facing the problem with undocumented immigrants and has to decide what to do about the eleven million people living here illegally.
Immigration has been vital to the growth of the United States. We are a melting pot of different ethnicities, and it is no different for the
Becoming a United States citizen is such a difficult task that many immigrants are crossing the border illegally. Today, the naturalization process is a large controversial topic. To become a citizen one has to go through a series of tests including topics about US government, language, and civics. One has to be able to speak and understand English which can be extremely difficult as a second language. Because it is so difficult to becoming a citizen or let alone enter a country with certain permissions, immigrants are illegally crossing the border causing issues and tension with existing United States citizens. Becoming a United States citizen should be easier because it would decrease illegal immigration, decrease human trafficking, and
Section 1:Since the beginning of our country, we have been built off of immigration. Our country has grown 170,000,000 people since 1950 and today, 13.3% or 42 million immigrants make up our country. I am not stating that this is a problem itself. The problem is that only around 48% of these immigrants are legal. This bill is to encourage more and more immigrants to become naturalized, not to encourage less immigration. The Department of Homeland Security lost track of well over one million immigrants who came here and never left. If we continue to have lots of people in our country unaccounted for, it could lead to problems in the future. According to CNN Money, in June 2016,
Undocumented immigrants should get a pathway to citizenship because it will improve our economy. Even though many people assume that that undocumented immigrants don’t pay tax, they contribute a lot of taxes to our economy. In fact, as of the year 2013, undocumented immigrants pay about 11.64 billion per year. However, if they are granted citizenship, according to a 2016 report from Institute on Taxation & Economic Policy, this number can go up by 2.1 billion; thus their nationwide effective state and local tax rate would increase to 8.6 percent. In other words, even without legal documents, undocumented still pay tax, and if given citizenship, they will positively contribute to our economy even more. On top of that, Marielena Hincapié, the
Illegal immigration has been a problem and most controversial issue for the United States for a long time. Thousands of illegal immigrants have entered the U.S. through either the Mexican border, or through many other ways. Some Mexicans have come into the U.S. through a tourist visa, but then have over stayed and are working in various places. But what's wrong if the U.S. government grant amnesty to those immigrants whose only crime is their immigration status? Amnesty, indeed, is not only the best solution to immigration problem of the U.S., it is the only feasible solution. There are several reasons for giving an opportunity to illegal Mexican immigrants to become U.S. citizens.
Attention getter: Since the beginning of time, The United States has been a nation of immigrants seeking freedom and better economic opportunities. According to Network Lobby, “History tells us that from the beginning immigration is beneficial to the country when we have a system that allows them to migrate freely and legally become a citizen of the United
It is a smart idea if America decides to find a way that immigrants could become citizens if they do so maybe some countries would have a different perspective of America and what they think of it. Some countries might think we are self-centered that we think the world revolves around us and maybe if we let people live here with documents maybe that could change. Many people can see the positive in this happening but many have a negative view and want to make sure that it does not happen. This topic has been discussed and debated many times and there is no clear side or one side that people have. People are very different, some see what they only want to see and others see all sides. Only America has the power to decide what to do. Finding
4. immigrants who have been in the US for a certain amount of time should be given an opportunity at citizenship(after background check)
America is considered to be the “land of opportunity,” yet ironically, its doors are closed to the vast majority of people seeking to become citizens and pursue this opportunity. Legal immigration to the United States is a complicated process that is generally limited to those that have been petitioned by family members or employers, or have fled their home country as refugees. Most unauthorized immigrants do not meet these requirements, and even those that do may have to wait years or even decades. This leaves many with the choice to either immigrate illegally, or not immigrate at all. Those who choose the former receive criticism from Americans that do not understand why they refuse to just “get in line” and become legitimate citizens, but this line already has 4 million people, and for many there is no line at all. The naturalization process is specifically designed to protect the national security of the country, but there are some immigrants that could potentially be hard-working, law-abiding citizens who are denied this opportunity due to the complexity of the process. It would be beneficial to make a simpler pathway to citizenship for these immigrants specifically, and reduce the number of illegal immigrants, strengthen the economy, and keep families together.
