Donald Trump's Immigration Bans In The United States

The U.S. has always being considered the land of opportunities. Back in my home country opportunities were very scarce, which led to my family immigrating to the U.S. for a better future. Having had firsthand experience in the immigration transition system, it has been captivating to hear in the news about the Executive Order Obama issued on November 20, 2014. Seeing families getting separated, violence raising in the Mexican border, and the increasing Latin population in the U.S. signaled the need for this Executive Order in immigrant communities. Even though the Constitution states that Congress has the duty of writing our Nation’s laws, President Obama declared an Executive Order on Immigration. It is believed to be a political boom for

In 1986 Ronald Regan signed into law the Immigration Reform and Control Act, an amnesty act that would alleviate the current immigration problems. Through this law, out of five million illegal immigrants, an estimated four million could have applied to become legal U.S. Citizens. This law was supposed to put a definite stop to illegal immigration into the United States. However, ever since the law was enacted, statistics show that the numbers of illegal immigrants in the United States have ascended from an estimated 5 million in 1986, to about 11 million today. Therefore because of these rising numbers, immigration has been one of the most popular topics in U.S. elections and debates. So on November 20th 2014, President Obama announced to the nation the executive actions that he 's planning to take to fix our nation 's broken immigration system.

The newly indicted President of the United States, Donald Trump had made an executive order to create an immigrant ban to prevent immigrants from entering and returning to the United States. Shortly after signed the order there was chaos due to Trumps lack of communication; Trump had signed the order as the official's were still discussing it. To continue, when the order was set Custom border control had received orders, however, they were quite unsure of what to do, more questions continue to raise about why trump had singed this order and why he was so quick to fulfill it. Officials of the Whitehouse had defended Trump's decision for the order and his reasoning for it.

In November of 2014 president Obama issued executive orders shielding about a third of the nation’s illegal immigrants from deportation and permitting them to work. Recently on April 18th, the Supreme Court considered whether his actions were legal. The president can veto any acts that the congress may attempt; which in this case is what occurred. President Obama was using his executive power to carry out the actions he believed to be in the best interest of everyone. That’s why we have a democracy to choose what president we believe will do what is right for all. The legislative branch may override a president’s veto but in this case that action was never taken when the president had originally tried to veto the deportation act. The judicial

Donald Trump might be the main subject in this topic because as a president he is responsible about the future of this country, but he doesn’t deal just with one problem, of course he doesn’t; however, immigration seems to be one of his favorite because since his camping to become president, he made everything clear what kind of ideas he had for immigration issues. Now since he is president, he has decreed many executive orders against undocumented people inside the country and people from other countries that want to be here. One of many that he has until now is that besides that sanctuary cities are dangerous; they also are unconstitutional according to Ilya Somin, professor of Law at George Mason University, in his article “Trump’s order on sanctuary cities is dangerous and unconstitutional.” Somin claims and points out what kind of serious constitutional problem is the

“The Congress shall have Power To...establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization...” (U.S. Const. Article. I, Sec. 8). More generally, the Constitution calls upon Congress to make laws, and calls on President to enforce the laws. When it comes to immigration, the judiciary has presented the argument of separation of powers between the legislative and executive branches. Yet, some courts have expressed the concept that the executive “share[s] plenary power over immigration with Congress as one of the political branches” (Manuel and Todd 2013). When Congress in unable to pass legislation on unanticipated situations affecting immigrants, the President is tasked with responding to the situation. This duty to respond to the unanticipated, coupled

Trump executive order on immigration consists of eleven sections. Each section describes his plan of action and why he included that section. A few of the main key points in the reform is to build a wall across the border to separate two countries, Mexico and the U.S, and to expedite deportation. Trump describes how the suspension of Visas and other immigration benefits will protect the U.S. from terrorist attacks like September 11 and to prevent the admission of more “illegal aliens”. I plan to use some of the sections in this source to evaluate Trump’s immigration action and why he believes it’s necessary to do it. Also, I will also explain how some of the sections affect an immigrants life and why they now fear for their lives. Donald Trump immigration order caused chaos within the first ten days since he took office because immigrants were not expecting his presidential campaign proposals to start so soon.

Throughout America’s history, immigration has always been an uprising topic since the United States is a country that is full of immigrants since dating back to when it was discovered by Christopher Columbus. Different nationalities make up the population in America and is very cultural orientated throughout the different states. There are always arguments about how immigrants that are here without permanent residence or citizenship. With elections being held within the next year immigration is a popular topic that has been talked about because of candidate Trump and his uprising comments regarding these individuals. Donald Trump in particular has been strongly opinionated about how he feels for illegal immigrants. Especially those migrants that come Latin America, in particular those that come from Mexico. With him wanting to make America great again, his immigration reform brings out different opinions within the different ethnic

This is meant to allow the president to enact laws approved by congress. But instead, they have used this to empower themselves to write laws that the people don’t even realize are being written and congress has no authority to overrule. These orders have covered topics that range from starting wars to taking away citizen rights, to allowing political “supporters” to be given government positions.

During the 2015-2016 Presidential Campaign, candidate Donald Trump greatly emphasis on illegal immigration. He includes anchor babies as a part of his campaign. Anchor babies are a big contribution to illegal immigration. “An analysis of census data reveals that among births to illegal immigrant mothers in 2009-2010, 91 percent had been in the country for at least two years, and two-thirds had arrived at least five years before giving birth. Illegal immigrants come here to work, not to “drop anchor babies,” an ugly term used to refer to innocent children. The question of whether these children are citizens by birth is a settled matter of law.”

From a Constitutional perspective, Donald Trump’s policies violate the First Amendment by creating this order he

Trump has planned to take control of America's illegal immigration and to protect America from taking in enemy migrants from other countries by having 2 proposals when he became elected president. And those proposals are the Deportation policy and the Travel ban.

This article discusses the Supreme Court's deadlock on President Obama's immigration policies. The 4 to 4 tie meant his Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA) would not be established. This plan would have helped 4 million immigrants from getting deported. It was an expansion of his already successful Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA, which helped prevent the deportation of 1.1 million young immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally by their parents. Many immigrants were left distraught by the

The major talk in recent news was that of Trumps travel ban shortly after taking office. The ban was not to allow individuals to enter the country from seven specific countries that he named in the order. This took the nation by storm, since it was a sudden and unannounced ban that effected many individuals that were about to travel or even in some cases mid -air, where they were met at customs with some very recent news. This made the public ask for swift response from officials from the supreme court to come and make their rulings on the subject. Trump also knew this was going to shake the nation as well as the courts so his team started immediately on a new order to trail the original. The courts took secession in the 9th circuit, with swift

Travel bans have been very popular in this year’s news, but they have been affecting people all over the world long before Trump came into office. Presidents use code 8 U.S.C. 1182 when creating travel bans, this code allows the president of the United States power to control and regulate entry into the United States (Kumar 1). While there are many reasons to create a ban, the foundation of them all should be to protect the citizens of the United States. Also in the article by
