Immigration Argumentative Analysis

Immigration has been a burning issue lately, particularly after Donald Trump’s immigration ban in the United States of America. It has been a topic that families discuss every morning with breakfast. Despite many concerns related to immigration, it has several positive benefits that mostly outweighs the negativity. People bizarrely argue when it comes to immigration, but these arguments are primarily based on facts and ideas that are outdated or inconsistent and blindfold the positive aspect related to immigration. Many immigrants in the United States are good workers who don't depend upon any public welfare and mostly help in the overall development of the economy. As a country made by immigrants, we must not forget the fact that immigrants have helped to build cities and create a path of development form Google to iPhones (Gray & Furman, 2012). These facts are secluded, and some related arguments with different content have been repeated for years and continue. Immigrants have a lot to give the United States rather than to take, especially when it comes to economic terms.

As the plane slowly landed on the airport terminal in Washington D.C., my parents held their excitement. After the long fight of waiting on the list and doing all the immigration paperwork, they awed that they finally arrived here in the United States, the land of opportunity and freedom. My parents immigrated to the United States from Vietnam. They hoped to seek a better future for themselves and for future generations. When I was a young child, my parents put in many grueling hours of work to support our family. My mother worked as a waitress and a cashier at a Chinese restaurant while my father worked at a steel factory where he assembled parts for furniture. They both worked for minimum wages which made it more difficult to have extra money to enjoy and relax. As our family lived here in the United States, my parents received some harsh judgements and critiques from American citizens. My mother got some feedback for her limited English skills, and she got taunted for that. My father openly practiced his cultural beliefs which differed from American traditional values and customs. He prayed and meditated to his God with his special incense. This behavior received some backlash from others in his workplace. As we continued to live here in the United States, immigrants widespread such like my parents have received negative judgements and misconceptions from Americans. The topic of immigration has became more controversial due to border patrol issues and illegal immigration

Immigration is currently a hot topic, within in the United States government. Currently the United States Congress is fighting to decide the fate of the Dreamers, and the Immigration bill DACA. Like many controversial issues within the government, the Democrats and Republicans are in a disagreement on what to do. Each article, examines a different take on the current immigration reform. Bier’s main argument is that individuals who are contributing to immigration reform are ignorant, that Immigrants are not hurting the American Labor market. The next article, I examined, was written by Eric Cantor; Cantor states that although the parties each have a high stake in the decision, Congress makes on DACA, there must be a decision otherwise, the law will remain status quo. Next, we look at Gessen’s article, the main argument is that immigrants should not be looked at valuable or illegal, they should not have to be talented in order to be welcome within the United States. Lastly, Vargas, an undocumented Immigrant, discusses the difficulties of being illegal within the United States, yet still shines a light on the positive influences he had throughout his childhood and time in America.

I want you to imagine that someone you love is sick and needs medicine, but the area you live in cannot give you the medicine you need. Would you be willing to move somewhere else to make sure that your family is provided for? That is the issue being talked about in these two articles, more and more immigrants are moving from their homeland to America in search of a more fruitful life. Majority of the illegal aliens that linger here know what it’s like to live in poverty and wish to experience the American dream.

Immigration reform in the U.S. is at the forefront of American policy and news. In the U.S., a country effectively founded by immigrants, immigration and immigration policy are extremely politicized and dividing topics. The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program has been the most recent target of reform for the Trump administration. DACA was originally created as an executive order by President Obama in order to protect illegal immigrants who entered the U.S. as children, were educated or are receiving education in the U.S., and work or are seeking work in the U.S.. DACA’s protection was that it delayed deportation for these individuals, commonly referred to as Dreamers. According to VOX writer Dara Lind, the program protects

The walls are caving inside one’s hiding place and all one hears is the screams of their cherished friends being brutally assaulted by law enforcement that is suppose to be our protectors, who turn out to be the devil hidden in the flesh. One could nothing, but continue to hear the screaming and pray that the terror does not find him or her. One continues to cower under fear and wait for the sun to rise again to live under fear for another day. Each day goes by with one always looking behind his or her shoulders wondering if they, immigration, are coming for them and are the people, he or she trusts, will sell them out.The thoughts of abandonment, fear, and betrayal are constantly running through the families that do not have a piece of paper,

Often the subject of immigration is seen in a negative light in the Christian community. According to Matthew Soerens, Christians tend to view immigration as a threat to the economic and social stability of the United States. Soerens compares this attitude of hostility to that of the Pharaoh in the old-testament who saw the growth of the Hebrew nation as a threat and forced them into slavery. However, a Soerens point out that hostility is not the only option open for Christians. Soerens remarked that the Pharaoh under which Joseph served, many years earlier, actually saw the Hebrews and an economic opportunity. This event demonstrated second option which is to view the growth in immigration as an opportunity not only for economic growth but

I loved the salon (especially the tea, which totally made my day)! It was a great experience, and I enjoyed debating with people of both similar and different political opinions. It was also nice to be able to discuss the illegal immigration topic with people who are immigrants themselves, as it added a whole new perspective to the conversation. My favorite topics were probably the ones on gun control laws (in which I argued for stricter laws) and the death penalty (which I was mostly against) because I was able to face a lot of good differing opinions and debate with them, and in turn, expand my political opinions. I agreed with a lot of people's stances on topics, but there were also situations in which I was the only one at the table with

The issue of immigration limitations has sparked much debate amongst the political world, particularly as of late with the US presidential election taking place. Politicians and philosophers argue about the number of immigrants a nation can sustain and the rights of states to limit immigration. I will argue that restrictions are justifiable because the state has a right to choose whom they associate with, and immigration has serious economic costs. After I develop my argument I will respond to a few objections to my position.

The groups that migrate to America have changed throughout history, but this nation has always had immigrants. In the past, it was clear that immigrants were vital to our country to grow our population and workforce. In recent times, however, immigration has become a controversial issue because it has been argued that immigrants are stealing jobs and driving up crime rate. This argument has been especially prevalent with our current presidential administration, which has prompted debates on building a wall between the U.S. and Mexico, banning incoming Muslims, creating sanctuary cities, what we should do with the children from DACA, and so on. There have been some questions raised about modern immigration, but although some immigrants drain

The Article Immigration Policy: Should the U.S. government take stricter measures to limit illegal immigration (February 9, 2017), focuses on whether the U.S. should adopt stricter measures for illegal immigration. Supporters believe that illegal immigrants pose a threat to national security. Undocumented immigrants are not in the system, so their criminal records are inaccessible. Additionally, supporters believe that immigrants take the jobs of Americans. Companies tend to give immigrants jobs because they will work for cheap wages. However, the opponents of the law believe stricter measures for illegal immigrants shouldn’t be done because most of the country's technological breakthroughs are due to immigrants. Opponents believe that immigrants help the economy because they take the jobs that not many workers take, such as farming or physical work. Immigration policy argument will continue until there is common ground established between everyone whether to there should be stricter measures or another way for them to become documented.

Immigration is such a complicated topic. I really didn’t realize everything that went into it until I got to college and was able to vote myself. Although I have written thousands of words on this topic, I still am unsure if I can for certain say that I completely agree with one side of the argument or the other. What I do believe is the fact that immigration is a touchy issue, especially within the United States, and each case should be looked at differently.

Immigration is the movement through which an individual permanently moves from their place of residence from one country to another. Immigration is a topic which divides political parties and general debate. Whilst some people see the positives of immigration, such as the filling of skill gaps in low and highly skilled jobs, others see the negatives of immigration, such as the strain on services such as the NHS, schools and housing.
