Argumentative Essay On Syrian Refugees In The United States

Among the presidential candidates for the year 2016, Republican representative Donald Trump seems to have the most ridiculous and controversial campaign ideas. One of his more known campaign ideas has to do with banning Muslims from the United States. He generalized that all Muslims currently, or plan to act as, terrorists who will launch attacks on US soil. Building a wall on the border between US and Mexico is another well known idea of his, especially because he wants Mexico has to pay the cost for the wall’s construction. Even though politicians may paint immigration in a negative light, the United States relies on immigrants to help its economy, so it should not opt to throw them out of the country.

states cannot legally refuse Syrian Refugees without the approval of the federal government first. According to Stephen I. Vladeck, an American university law professor says that, “Legally, states have no authority of the question of who should be let into this country is one that the Constitution commits to the federal government.” Also, he added that, “Without the state’s participation, the federal government would have a much more arduous task.” Stephen finally added that, “… So a state can’t legally sat it is objecting, but it can refuse to cooperate, which makes things much more difficult.” Also, Kevin Appleby, the director of immigration policy for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, says that, “The federal government has the plenary power and the power of the 1980 Refugee Act to place refugees anywhere in the country.” ‘More than 250,000 people have died in the country of Syria and at least 11 million people have left the country since the Syrian Civil War has broken out,’ according to the United Nations, and ‘about 51.13636% of the Syrian population has been killed or fled their homes’ and has been discussed elsewhere (Fantz, Ashley, and Ben Brumfield. “Syrian Refugees Not Welcome in 31 States – CNN.com.”, and Yan, Holly. “Refugee Crisis: Pressure Builds for U.S. to Take in More Syrians –

The consequences of the conflict on outside nations has been tremendous. The Syrian Civil War has led to arguably the worst humanitarian crisis since World War 2, and although the plight of refugees through Europe is highly publicised, the number of refugees in Europe only accounts for 10% of the total number displaced across the world. The majority of Syrian refugees currently reside in neighbouring such as Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey. The economic and social strain on these countries is immense, and the issue of aid and refugee resettlement has become a polarising issue in all countries which have offered/are discussing whether to take in refugees and resettle them. In fact, In Turkey alone, there are around 2,700,000 registered refugees in various camps and throughout the country. Turkey has also given $8,000,000,000 in aid to the cause. The situation is particularly bad in Jordan where almost 650,00 registered refugees reside. A Jordanian census conducted in 2015 showed that there were twice as many refugees as first thought, meaning that half were unregistered. The wave of refugees into

“I swear with my heart that nothing has happened to people like what is happening now in Syria. People are dying for nothing and in very bad ways. Nothing in the world is like that. If they find your body, they will chop into pieces and throw it into the streets like garbage.”(Goodspeed Peter) This evidence proves this claim because this home is not safe for Hiyam Kholi, because people are dying for no reason, and that could be her. America has to let immigrants come to America in this circumstance, and for many other reasons, to protect them from things like this. If America can do this there would be less innocent people dying, and they would safe in America than any other place that is dangerous. Letting a certain amount of immigrants can be a great way to protect immigrants because someone big, and powerful is allowing them in. “president Barack Obama has directed the U.S government to accept at least 10,000 immigrants from Syria in the next fiscal year”.(Eilperin juliet) This evidence proves my claim, because someone as big and powerful in this government will allow immigrants not to be scared to come to America. Immigrants should not be afraid of America because we will take care of them just so nothing bad happens to them. If America is able to keep

We should take in more Syrian refugees because they can boost our economy. Many of the Syrian refugees will earn low pay here in the United States but an influx of lower skilled workers could actually help Americans with less skills. More people equals more production, which means more jobs to meet the demand of production. Also because these workers will have different skills than most Americans, they won’t compete much with Americans buy may actually complement us (Nowrasteh). The refugees will even be able to pay taxes, giving a slight break on small communities. Examples of refugees’ positive effect on the economy are all around us like in Turkey, were the Turkish government has spent roughly $5.72 billion to feed and shelter Syrian refugees, who number 2.2 million in the country. But despite the apparent economic

The utterly diminished and persistently conflicted regime of Bashar Al-Assad has led to several forces, including numerous rebel groups, Kurdish forces, and even ISIL to occupy the war-torn country of Syria in a seemingly never-ending ruination. Most importantly however, it has also led to millions of Syrians becoming dislodged between the remnant regions with the deaths of roughly half a million citizens, according to the Syrian Centre for Policy Research, from a civil war that originated due to a series of protests and differentiating ideologies. The situation has lead for surviving Syrians, now properly known as refugees, to seek asylum in neighboring countries in Europe, but even including some countries as far as in the Western Hemisphere, particularly the United States.

Due to the recent crises caused by the conflict in Syria, more than four million refugees have fled that region of the

In conclusion, I strongly agree and support the ideas of allowing more Syrian refugees to United States since it’s all global responsibility to give them equal opportunities to survive. These refugees suffered from the war and were also the victims of the Islam State and the terror group. We can’t judge someone by his or her religion beliefs or where they came from. Therefore, we should accept and welcome them!

Syria has been having many problems lately. There is a war currently going on ,and Syria is in need to transport their citizens to another country. Our group will focus on getting the refugees to be able to enter the United States. There has been issues in the United States in which refugees aren’t able to enter the

With the recent events around the world involving a terror group named ISIS, many have been affected. In Paris, many were killed during a concert which struck terror around the world. A total of 129 people perished and hundreds were wounded. Millions of Syrian refugees have been trying to escape and come to the United States for their own personal safety. Over the past 4 years, over 2000 refugees have been allowed into the country. In an attempt to increase the safety of the refugees, the U.S. has pledged to allow 10,000 more Syrians over the next year. It has become a controversial topic because citizens of the United States believe letting in the refugees is a mistake. Some incredulous citizens believe letting in refugees will cause more

In 2013, the United States had only accepted 36 applications for granting asylum for Syrian Refugees. The Guardian’s Amanda Holpuch describes

According to Fox news,Obama administration officials plan to bring in about 10,000 refugees over the next year. This will give them a safe place to stay, a chance to get back on their feet, a chance to get a job, will allow them to get healthcare, an education, and any other other commodities the refugees could possibly need. But, every person has another side. In France, in November of 2015, the ISIS bombers were identified as refugees that had fled to escape the war. As they had started to live in France,they joined ISIS, and were undercover. Letting people into your country without thinking about it gives them a chance to be a threat. Some countries are letting refugees’ records slide so they can start a now life. CNN news says that 31 U.S. governors are not accepting Syrian refugees.Overall, it is the wrong choice to let refugees into your

Last September, four year old Shahad was found in the rubble of a bombing site in Western Syria. Seven of her family members were killed in the incident.Now in a Lebanese refugee camp, Shahad and her remaining family members are struggling to survive. These are the families that the United States has the potential to help. The potential to let into our country. The potential to offer these types of families a proper education, because we, unlike them, have enough resources. We should let the Syrian refugees into our country.

The Syrian refugee crisis has received massive media coverage. People around the world are trying to comprehend the desperate, complicated situation surrounding Syria. The civil war in Syria is the worst crisis in our time. Syrians upset at the fact that long promised reforms have not been enacted, began anti-government demonstrations which started the civil war in 2011. The peaceful protests turned ugly, with the government violently putting an end to those protests. Afterward, ordinary citizens took arms, causing the situation to escalate. Syrians are fleeing their homes because of the great violence, which have left thousands dead and millions wounded, a collapsed infrastructure, resulting in a shattered economy, and for the safety of the children. Syrians are either streaming to surrounding countries or risking their lives to travel to Europe.

Since 2011, Syria has been engaged in a Civil War with protestors against the government and members of the extremist group ISIS, and approximately 7.6 million people have been displaced from their homes (usnews.com 2015). As the conflict destroys more homes and livelihoods each year, an increasing number of civilians have been forced to leave Syria and try to find safety elsewhere. Already a contentious issue, the Syrian refugee crisis has awakened tensions, both economic and social as debate erupts over what to do with the refugees.In response to the crisis, while some countries like Germany have pledged to help the refugees, (New Statesman 2015 1) only 2,340 have been admitted. Clearly, more needs to be done in order to help the refugees. Although there are economic and population concerns to be considered, the humanitarian conflict that faces the refugees and solutions already available are reason enough for Europe to increase the numbers of Syrian refugees allowed in.
