Persuasive Essay About Immigration

Immigration has become an issue all around the world. Everyone have different opinions on how immigrants affect our society. Is immigration good for the economy, the employment rate for immigrants and their pay, how the ban could have a major impact on the U.S., why do people migrate, and DACA (deferred action for childhood arrivals). This essay will hopefully answer any question about immigration and we should handle the ban.

Immigration can be seen as an important role to maintain diversity and a steady economy in many countries, including the United States. However, while people are trying to immigrate to locations where they would get better opportunities for themselves and their families, they are instead being greeted by death or closed doors, caused by awful conditions when trying to cross the border or the inability to gain access to a country with better opportunities. Immigrants are forced to cross illegally to improve their and their family’s lives due to the difficulty of attaining citizenship or visa; millions of families have been separated and they have to live not knowing what has happened to their loved ones. The trauma of an incident like this can impact someone’s life forever, and in order to ensure people’s safety and wellbeing, everyone should have a real chance to gain citizenship, disregarding their country of origin. The path to citizenship should be made easier and more inclusive so that people who are searching for opportunities are given the chance to improve their lives.

Former president Obama once said, “My fellow Americans, we are and always will be a nation of immigrants. We were strangers once, too” (“Barack Obama”). This idea of immigration has caused a lot of controversy in the past year. Since Donald Trump became president in 2016, he has begun talk of phasing out DACA- a program which currently allows over 790,000 undocumented immigrants to live safely in America. The removal of DACA is immoral and should not be allowed because it is legally unnecessary, is going to wreak havoc on the lives of those protected by the program, and will cause a strain on the economic well-being of America.

Accepting illegal immigrants gives the opportunity for America to be seen as a good country. America will be seen as a helpful and open place to everyone. Accepting Mexicans will make the other countries see the USA as a country that cares for others and is willing to help them. A country that is willing to help immigrants fulfill their American dream. Illegal immigration has been a controversial issue in the U.S. Majorly race group affected by immigration are Mexicans. Mexicans are hard workers that come in search for a better life and are willing to do anything. They increase diversity and expand their culture in America.

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.

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free" on their famous Statue of Liberty. Immigrant into the USA has recently become the contentious issue. Democrats and republican have clashed with each other, and with the white house. Republican has clashed with republican also. Lots of terror attack as well as illegal immigrants who are here in US for the job opportunity and for their future is the reason for the Issue. All of the immigrant who are here and the out world all people are interested in the issue because the people who are here living in US are in fear of deportation as well as for the future of their family. Similarly, US is known as the melting pot where there are people from all around the world so

There are few topics that evoke such emotion as that of immigration. One can go up to almost any person and receive a heavy one sided feeling about the dilemma. Illegal immigration has done much more good to our nation’s economy than it has done to hurt it. People immigrate to this country for many reasons. To find freedom, to escape or to make money. Each of these things being opportunities that just do not exist in their own country.

With the recent presidential election, which resulted in the inauguration of Donald Trump, immigration has been thrust into the spotlight, as it has been a heavy platform for the current president. The president of the United States has been very harsh on immigration and has called for stricter regulations and has expressed his displeasure with the current number of immigrants that the United States has accepted. I currently am a consultant for the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), which is the largest immigration reform group in the country and a public interest organization of concerned Americans, united in the belief that our immigration policies and laws should again serve the nation’s future needs (About FAIR, n.d.). I am purposing a plan to raise awareness of the issues with immigration with the goal of increasing regulations for incoming immigrants into the United States and trying to introduce a merit-based immigration system to combat the current problems that the United States faces in regards to immigration. I also think that increasing funding to the border patrol to help reduce the problem of illegal immigration would be a smart, but not necessary idea. Better border management, lower levels of overall immigration, and a greater focus on highly skilled immigrants are important policies and ideas of FAIR’s and my agenda (About FAIR, n.d.). These proposals are important as the United States has a larger immigrant population than any other country, and is a world leader on the policies of immigration. Immigration to the United States should be based solely upon the following principles: the reunification of families, admitting immigrants with skills that are valuable to the U.S. economy, protecting refugees, and promoting diversity (How the United States Immigration System Works, 2017).

Attending college is seen as an essential and exhilarating stage of one’s life. From admissions to paying tuition, pursing higher education seems stressful enough. However, every year, tens of thousands of undocumented seniors graduate without a game plan and face bigger challenges due to their illegal status. Immigration is a huge problem in the United States. It is understandable that our country cannot simply welcome everyone to reside here. However, there are millions of immigrants who have already settled here and are given an extremely difficult time living a peaceful life.  Various proposals have been made to accommodate those that have settled and been living here for years; especially families that have children and further generations

Lots of people move to different states to start a new life and to better themselves. They want better for not only themselves, but for their families. This is also the same for immigrants. As an immigrant they come here to live better. In their countries, they may not have the same opportunities to do want they need to obtain the level of success they desire. They should be able to obtain some of the rights that citizens have. I believe that they shouldn’t been turned away for medical treatment or if they need emergency help shouldn’t be afraid to call the police. America is the land of the free and home of the brave. Everyone should be able to live comfortably regardless if they are a citizen or not.

In the late 1800s and early 1900’s, there has been an increase on immigration in the US including from Germans to Europeans and Chinese. Recently in the US, there has been a rise on immigration coming from our neighboring country, Mexico. They cross the border knowing the risks but all they have in mind are the new opportunities and better way of life. Immigration is such a heated and controversial topic in the US but it’s something that we have to address. Even politicians and artists, such as former president Barack Obama, have been helping out legal and illegal immigrants on their behalf and have been raising their voice. Immigrants are an essential part to the US and should have the opportunity to stay here in the United States without fear of being deported. They come here for a better education, a better way of living, and help boost up the country’s economy.

Immigration is a multi-faceted topic of immense debate, and has been since the beginning of U.S. history. Back in the early days of New York City, for example, there was a big pushback against the Irish immigrants. Moving forward a few decades and the U.S. had internment camps during WWII to hold Japanese immigrants in the U.S. Now, the U.S. faces three new and distinct challenges as a nation: What to do with the existing illegal immigrants, how to stop new ones from entering, and how to best handle legal immigration. There can only be an objective solution if one comes at the problem with objective measures of success. As such, U.S. should measure the success of its immigration program with maximization of economic utility as the ultimate

It's like a final exam to them, one with most vote passes the exam. Their result is determined by a platform that they or their party stand, who supports them, how effectively their slogan etcetera. 1 “The amount a candidate spends per vote is based on three variables: 2 how much a candidate fundraises, how much a candidate spends and, most importantly, how many votes a candidate receives (BHANDARI, ESSIG, MCCULLOUGH).” But sometimes no money amount is enough to buy winning votes. Because of advancement of the technology, the amount of spent on advertisement and other things has gone up. As a result, it increases the cost to run in the election.

For many, the United States is more than nation of freedom. By September of 2016, 84,995 refugees had been admitted to country, the largest amount since 2002. All of which are fleeing persecution and harm from their country of origin. However, hundreds are denied entry to the U.S., not for suspicion of being a terrorist, or for criminal charges, but because a judge doesn’t deem a threat serious enough. Should the criteria for asylum be altered to allow immigrants who suffer from other forms of maltreatment to gain asylum?

Illegal immigration has been an issue in the U.S. for a very long time. The government has attempted different methods to wipe out all undocumented individuals. From deportation and increasing border security, to implementing laws that punish employers for hiring illegal immigrants, to awarding temporary work permits, and then to legalizing illegal immigrants through amnesty, these attempts have all failed. Nowadays, many questions, ask if this problem of illegal immigration can ever be solved? That I don’t know. What I do know is it would be a great change in our economic system if we minimized it. All undocumented individuals who are currently employed or full-time students should be given amnesty.
