Illegal immigration has become more of an important issue in the United States since Donald Trump’s campaign for president in 2016. Immigration can be known as the act of people crossing national borders to live permanently in other countries. It becomes illegal when they cross those borders without the legal right to be in those countries. The U.S. has been an immigrant country since the pilgrims in the 1600s and has ever since, been diverse. Most of the immigrants are Latinos that come from Central America, but they also come from all over the world. The current path to legal citizenship is flawed and needs to be reformed to allow rights to be upheld, equal and fair treatment of all applicants, and to facilitate the process altogether.

Immigration has been a major problem for countless years that seems to never seize. Illegal immigrants do not hold the rights that U.S. residents possess and manage to live a hard life because of the mere opportunities that come their way. U.S. residents are allowed to vacate and visit the places immigrants come from, yet they have to risk their lives in hopes of a better life. Where is the equality? The unfair treatment arises from them simply being illegal, however everyone deserves equality regardless of their background and origin. The deep stigma and outlook on immigrants in today’s society can be quite controversial. The government should indeed allow immigrants to find a place to call home without the use of strict immigration

Immigration is one the biggest issues people can deal with now a days. Hundreds of thousands of people legally and illegally enter the United States. Those immigrants come from all around the world leaving everything behind hoping to find better life. A lot of people think that the United States of America is the best place to go to. Immigrants mostly migrate from their home country because of the wars that destroyed their homes and the lack of right they have. They come to search for protection, benefits, and better life here. Immigration ales the United States of America different from any other country in the world.

The United States of America is one of the greatest countries on this earth. Since the day it was founded, many men and women died while building this country into the nation it is today. But there is a problem that threatens America today and it is illegal immigration. The definition of an illegal immigrant is a foreigner who enters the U.S. without proper authorization. Especially a person who crosses the border to avoid inspection. In the year 2014 there were 11.1 million unauthorized immigrants in the U.S. according to the Pew Research Center. Many immigrants come to the U.S. in search for a better life. About fifty-two percent of all

“Every single immigrant undocumented or documented, is a future American” (Diaz). According to Krogstad, Passal, and Cohn,” A rising share of unauthorized immigrants have lived in the U.S for at least a decade” (2017). During the last few days President Donald Trump has worked on building a wall on the Mexican border, and his dream (deporting all illegal immigrants) is soon becoming a reality. Many Hispanic Immigrants are saying goodbye to their dream, and are finding ways to cross the border, but every time an immigrant tries to cross the border illegally it is a different outcome. Border Patrols are detecting more, and more immigrants crossing the border illegally, and when they perceive them, the border patrols dispatch them back where they came from.

Some Americans think immigration from Mexico should be stopped completely and guard should be enforced across the entire border. Steps have

Sanctuary cities have been a hot topic in the news lately due to America’s illegal immigration problem. These cities protect immigrants that enter the US illegally. Because there are no background checks, criminals can cross the borders as well as those seeking a better life. According to our current president, Donald Trump, “Our cities should be sanctuaries for Americans- not for criminal aliens.” Even former President Bill Clinton cracked down on federal immigration enforcement. In his 1995 State of the Union address, he said, “We are a nation of immigrants. But we are also a nation of laws. It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws we have seen in recent

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.

Did you know there are 8,194,000 children in the United States with at least one immigrant parent? 8,194,000 children whose families are being threatened by the Trump administration's recent changes in immigration policies. Immigration reform has been a topic of controversy for decades. Most Americans blame Mexican immigrants for the United States economic problems and many believe undocumented immigration causes high crime rates. However recent studies have disproved that undocumented immigrants are a threat to American citizens. When people think of immigrants they think of an outdated caricature that doesn't truly represent all of the 11 million undocumented immigrants.

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.

Immigration is a topic that I personally have not had much encounter with in my life. It is something that has not even ran across my mind until recent years. Especially with the decision plans of our current president, I have become more aware of immigrants and gained knowledge of why we should keep immigrants.

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?

The system we have for dealing with illegal immigrants, in the state of california, arizona, and texas varies in so many ways. California inforced their border patrol therefore leaving many immigrants trying to cross over with the only option of crossing through Arizona and Texas. California has minutemen patrolling therefore, California has become a difficult place for the illegal immigrants to try and cross. In Arizona, there isn’t a strict border patrol as there is in California, they however, have a law that states that those crossing have to be reported to ICE. their law is named SB1070 it enforces three rules, 1) officers can stop anyone with Reasonable Suspicion and therefore can ask for your legality. 2) anyone knowingly escorting an illegal can get in trouble 3) No one can employ an illegal in any way. Texas way of dealing with immigrants is that they have drones helping border patrol they surveil hard to reach places as well as those high risk areas. They have a border fence around Rio Grande Valley. In my opinion something that should be changed in order to help solve the problems of border crossing would be to have more officers patrolling the border and to have undercover people located those helping them cross over.
