Equal Rights Of Immigrants In The United States

The definition of freedom and equality for immigrants in the United States is considered a long term struggle. The Federal Government’s size, and role in the average American life has both retarded and advanced freedom and equality for immigrants because of the constantly changing perceptions of immigrants. The Chinese Exclusion Act in 1882, the Enemy Alien Registration in 1918, the Immigration Act in 1924, and the Executive Order signed by Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1941 are all examples of the continuing struggle for the definition of freedom for immigrants in the United States.

Trump wants to enforce our immigration laws-to build a wall and end sanctuaires cities, which he calls crap and says they need to be stopped. Stop and end all of it, if they want to come to the U.S, they need to come legally. Welcome those who embrace our way of life, but keep out immigrants and refugees who don’t through rigorous vetting. Trump thinks they are bringing drugs, crime, rapists and problems for us.

Donald Trump has voiced his strong opposition to Mexicans being in the United States; he even went as far as proposing the idea of building a wall separating Mexico from the US. According to Forbes’ article written by Dolia Estevez, “he wants to deport 11.3 million undocumented workers, 6 million of which are Mexicans, and strip babies born to undocumented immigrants of their birthright citizenship.”

April 2015 was the year Donald Trump, the Republican, announced to the public his serious interest in joining the 2016 presidency election. Trump 's highest interest is immigrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, and states they are "criminals.” He blames the race of Mexicans of robbing Americans jobs, and treating Americans like babies (Miller, n.pag.). What he does not know, is that not all Mexicans are "criminals," and we are not robbing Americans ' jobs. Most of us come to United States to work our hardest, and get a better job. Trump not only is he a racist, but he also has made many unprofessional actions and decisions. We should not be voting for Donald Trump because his ruthless actions against immigrants are strongly affecting our society and segregating most races within each other. He can be a dangerous future president who is carelessly choosing between the white American and Mexican.Trump shows a high interest in segregation among all races and blames most of the unemployed by allowing Mexicans to “take over”.

There are differing opinions from all, but most feel that immigration is a key issue that needs to be addressed immediately. Trump has been increasingly brash with his position on immigration reform. Going as far as to call children born to illegal aliens “anchor babies”. His immigration policy also calls for three core principles: a nation without borders is not a nation, a nation without laws is not a nation, and a nation that does not serve its own citizens is not a nation. (MLA) Along with these core principles Trump believes that Mexico should pay for the wall that he will build between the two countries, stating that “the annual cost of free tax credits alone paid to illegal immigrants quadrupled to $4.2 billion in 2011.” He also wants to triple the number of ICE officers and have better cooperation between local, state, and federal law enforcement. There are other policies he wishes to implement such as: defunding sanctuary cities, deporting all criminal immigrants, and increasing penalties for persons who overstay their visa. Last but not least, Trump wishes to ignore the 14th Amendment and end birthright citizenship for children who are born to illegal aliens. He has affectively ruined any support that he may have had from the latino

As the number of illegal immigrants entering the United States begins to increase once more, the issue of allowing or prohibiting immigrants to gain temporary status in order to obtain work continues to create national problems. According to a report given by the Department of Homeland Security, it is estimated that the number of immigrants entering the U.S. is at about 1.1 million people per year. (Hanson Par. 1) These individuals come into the United States in search of better living conditions and opportunities. However, these immigrants face challenges when it comes to work and other types of living.

While a constant flow of people coming to America seems like a great idea to most, President-elect Trump thinks the U.S need to limit the people it let in. During his campaign he said he would repeal DACA and kick out all illegal immigrants. His thought process behind this is that it will free up jobs for Americans. Trump is right that it will free up jobs as roughly “8 million illegal immigrants currently have jobs”, but the issue is that Americans won’t have the proper training to take all of these jobs (Krogstad). This will lead to companies not producing what they should and being forced to lay of people. So overall by kicking out all immigrants Trump will be costing many Americans jobs and could lead to another depression. Another thing that Trump has said he will do is build a wall around the U.S and Mexico. This wall will cost millions maybe even billions of dollars, yet Trump has not elaborated on how it will be paid for. He has said he will get Mexico to pay for it and that he has a plan to do it, but nobody knows

Crime is another factor that creates controversy with illegal aliens. Some illegal aliens become involved in drug trafficking, rapes, murders, and other crimes. Their involvement reduces the sympathy American citizens show toward them. Many police departments use up their resources investigating the crimes committed by illegal immigrants. This leaves less officers available to assist U.S. citizens. According to the Center for Immigration Studies (2009), about thirty-three percent of crimes committed by illegal aliens are for trafficking drugs. In the same study, eleven percent of them were arrested for assault (Vaughan & Camarota, 2009). Caroline May (2015) from BreitBart News describes in her report that 37.6 percent of federal sentences in 2014 were given to illegal immigrants. In 1980 our federal and state prions held 9,000 criminal aliens, that has now gone up to 55,000. The cost to keep them in prison is estimated at $1.5 to $1.6 billion per year.

President Trump's goal is to rid the entire nation of undocumented immigrants(Calabresi et al, 2016). Trump plans to send immigrants back to Mexico to wait out the immigration process(Kulish et al, 2017). However, Mexico did not approve of this plan. Trump is trying to pawn a U.S. problem on another country, and it is causing tensions to rise. Trump also plans to use expedited removal of illegal Mexican immigrants. This means he plans to deport people without a judge as extensively as the law will allow it in order to prevent back log of immigrant cases(Kulish et al, 2017). By preventing illegal Mexican immigrants from obtaining the necessary wages in order for their families to be financially stable, the Mexican economy will only plummet more. These people will continue to live in poverty, and the incentive will be even higher to illegally immigrate to the U.S.. It also creates the problem for the U.S. with a lack of a blue collar workforce population for the service economy and agriculture. He also plans on expanding the program 287(g) which, from 2013-2016, led to over 175,000 deportations(Kullish et al, 2017). The program was able to deport so many people because it used racial profiling. The U.S. has come so far in civil rights and liberties just to stigmatize Mexican Americans as illegal immigrants. The only beneficial thing Trump has done in his immigration policy is leave DACA alone.

Donald trump's plan on immigration is to deport illegal immigrants. He also wants to build a wall across the southern border of the united states. He believes that mexico should pay for the wall he builds across the border. He thinks this because he believes that mexico has been taking advantage of america by using immigration to export the crime in the country. They Posed books about how to illegally immigrate to the U.S.A.

As flocks of new immigrants arrive into the US after World War 2, especially here in CA,

Most immigrants that come to this country give us a sense of fresh air. Not only do they come motivated and to innovate but they do jobs that Americans don’t want to do : some areas include field, construction, and factory jobs. This country was built on immigrant and by law the government can’t discriminate based off gender ,race, or ethnicity. This was based on a Stanford law review. Some Americans may challenge the view on immigration by insisting that immigrant that come are criminals and drug dealers. This fear stems the fear of change. Today I will talk about a brief history of immigration, some common misconceptions, the benefits of immigration, and finally I will talk about why some American disagree with immigration in order to prove that the benefits of immigration outway the liabilities of immigration.

Donald Trump’s views on illegal immigration were very different from Hillary Clinton’s to say the least. Trump wants to detain and deport immigrants immediately who are caught crossing the border illegally. Along with the detaining and deporting he wants to inforce, he also wants to end birthright citizenship which means if a child of an illegal immigrant is born in the states he or she will not be granted a United States citizenship. Trump wants to defund sanctuary cities where police officers protect illegal immigrants by not contacting the immigration officials about the undocumented immigrants they come in contact with. He has the determination to build a wall on the Mexico-U.S. border to keep immigrants from crossing into the United States. According to www.businessinsider.com, Mexico will pay for the wall which would cost between five billion and ten billion dollars. Even with the possible building of the wall to keep immigrants out of the states, Trump wants to triple the amount of the Immigration and Enforcement officers from five thousand to fifteen thousand. He also wants these specific officers to collaborate with local police officers on gang raids that target the undocumented individuals who could possibly be involved with gangs. Looking back at his previous campaign proposals toward immigration, it has easily been noticed that Trump has gone “soft” when talking about deportation of the illegal immigrants. When it comes to muslim immigrants, Trump wants to issue a complete shutdown so they cannot enter. According to www.businessinsider.com there is reasoning behind Trump calling the shutdown of muslim immigrants, “Follwoing the San Bernardino shootings, shifted to a temporary ban applied to immigrants with “a proven history of terroris,” then linked Syrian refugees to

To clarify, why don’t we start a small introduction about this guy and his speeches about immigration. First of all, Trump is a candidate for president of the United States, which is in a high position to speak up for things that may be causing many problems in the USA. As a candidate, Trump must say what he is willing or going to do after becoming a president of the United Sates. Moreover, he says many things and there is a thing that we want to point it out as a main point of our research. Trump says,” We need to stop giving legal immigrant visas to people bent on causing us harm. From the 9/11 hijackers, to the Boston Bombers, and many others, our immigration system is being used to attack us”(Trump’s website). This quotation shows us how Trump feels about immigrants and their intention about coming to the USA. Which makes us think about the consequences later on. More importantly, trump’s ideas about immigration are unrealistic; this paints a negative image or reputation of all other immigration groups.

In many countries around the world people are struggling to live. Issues such as employment and education are limited. So many families decide to immigrate to other more opportunistic countries where they can achieve a better life. This solution is the building blocks behind the idea of the “American Dream” an ideal that all U.S citizens should have equal opportunities to achieve success; however this model of thinking can be taken on by many developing countries. Many immigrants have based their decision on leaving their home countries on this notion of a richer and fuller life. The topic of immigration is an issue that has been countlessly debated. For some it has created many negative factors such as over population and effects on culture.
