Pros And Cons In Border Enforcement

What is immigration and how can immigration affect our countries? Immigration is the action of people coming to live permanently in a foreign country. The topic of immigration and open borders has been a complicated and discussed subject for many years in countries all around the world. Many countries have already made the decision to have an open, closed, or a controlled border. As of now The United States has mixed views about the status of its borders and their policies on immigrants. Although many people have the opinion that the United States should have open borders, it is in the best interest of our nation to keep control of our borders so that our country does not have the negative effects other countries are enduring. Our country is also over populated, having an open border would only make the overpopulation issue worse.

Your professor schedules a class debate on pros and cons of the enforcement of federal immigration laws by the local polices. which side would you take? The local police must be involved in the enforcement of federal immigration law.

What is wrong with people illegally crossing our southern border into this country? What is wrong with illegal aliens breaking US federal laws? What could be wrong with not prosecuting them? What could go wrong with having more criminal in this country? What could be wrong with giving them money, and access to free hospital visits?

The first thing that really hit home for me was that people have to use ladder and secrecy to gain access to think country. This isn’t the way people should have to enter our county. People shouldn’t feel like they have to cross the desert in the dead of night, trying to get over a wall and survive in a wilderness that takes too many every year. To use rafts and busses and vans to cross a border that has no checkpoints on their side. The body the Border Patrol agents found is a great example. The person is dressed nicely, in a polo and khakis, and is wearing decent sneakers. They were probably trying to find a way to lead a better life. Instead, they were taken by the harsh environment that is the Sonoran Desert. At one point, they show a pile of bone they are collected, and they are so white. They have been in the sun for so long, who knows how long they have been

This week it was announced by the Department of Homeland Security that the Trump Administration would be sending the National Guard to the border to serve as a human “wall” until Trump receives the funding for a real border wall because apparently, according to DHS, there is a “real threat” there. Trump released a presidential memorandum on Wednesday that outlined sending the National Guard to secure our southern border. “The security of the United States is imperiled by the drastic surge of illegal activity on the southern border,”(WHITEHOUSE.GOV) Despite the imperative language, the number of individuals caught crossing the southern Mexican border has fallen quite dramatically as of late and is presently at the lowest level it's been since 1971, around one-fifth the level of the late 90s, as indicated by Border Patrol information.

Both legally and illegally, immigrants cross the Mexican-American border every day. The Secure Fence Act, passed by George W. Bush in 2006, authorized more lighting, vehicles, cameras, and satellites in hopes of gaining better control of this issue. Also, construction of seven hundred miles of security fencing was authorized through this act. (Fact Sheet: The Secure Fence Act of 2006, 2006). However, the cons of such an act far outway the pros. A fence along the Mexican-American border is extremely ineffective, expensive, and greatly strains the relationship between the United States and Mexico.

Border security and why it should not increase their security. I say that they shouldn’t increase their security because there’s no need to increase it cause it will be a waste of money to the US just to increase the borders security. Immigrants that don’t have documents should be able to come to the US and live there if they please to because they should have the same equal right as anybody else does in the US. The US shouldn’t have the right to not let anybody that isn’t a US citizen into the US and let they live there and work to support their families.

According to our current President, Donald Trump, and millions of supporters building a wall is just what we need for us to keep our country safe. On the other hand, it is controversial to others who think that this will cause more damage to our country and the relationships we have than it wall do us good. The New York Times just released an article, “Eight Ways to Build a Border Wall”, about the 8 new wall prototypes that were put up in October and could possibly be used along the border of the US and Mexico. It is explaining the pros and cons that border pratol has made about each wall. Building this wall will be a major part in our U.S history no matter if it is successful on its purpose or not it will indeed change the relationship between the U.S and Mexico.

What is illegal immigration and why is such an issue not only in the United States but in other countries as well? Illegal immigration is “a foreigner who has entered or resides in a country unlawfully, without the countries authorization or without an entry or immigrant visa, especially a person who crosses the border by avoiding inspection or who overstays the period of time allowed as a visitor, tourist, or businessperson.” (Dictionary.com) Illegal immigration has been an issue for a long time and we are still dealing with this issue because there hasn’t been a proper solution proposed in order to stop it. Although there are two sides to the issue between federal state governments and the citizens of the United States both proving many pros and cons about the issue. Going into greater detail-

Women, men, and children from West Africa are migrating to Europe because of the instability and violence that is taking place in Syria, Iraq, and Eritrea. According to the International Organization for Migration (IOM), “About 710,000 people” are crossing the european border. The vast migration is causing an increase on human trafficking, since traffickers and smugglers are taking advantage of the refugees. The IOM is reaching out to European countries “to spend more resources against sex trafficking,” in order to relocate and reduce the amount of refugees that are being victimize. A plan to resettle 10,000 Syrian refugees in the United States has being criticize because people are concern about the national security of the nation. The GOP presidential candidates are against the resettlement program. According to them the Syrian refugees post a threat to the national security of the United States. While, the Democratic presidential candidates want to increase the number of refugees that are going to be admitted. The refugees crisis has become the worst humanitarian Crisis in the world today. As citizens we have to sympathize with them and provide a

Each year taxpayers pay twelve billion dollars a year on border control, is this really necessary when people still find ways to get past and when we are in major debt?

Trump, with the support of the republican party, intends to make a “border adjustment,” which is a proposal that would tax U.S. imports and exempt exports from taxation. Trump hopes that this will push companies to buy parts from U.S. manufacturers and encourage domestic investment to save themselves money and boost the U.S. economy at the same time. Also, when companies export to countries outside the United States, they are not taxed either. Many big companies, however, are fighting this proposal because they are saying they would have to raise their prices which would hurt consumer’s wallets. They fear that the taxes will exceed their profits. The proposals architect, Kevin Brady, says the border adjustment would raise short-term government

Borders are arbitrary, and only have power if we, as humans, give them power. As Donella H. Meadows discusses, we’ve created borders as a way of marking territory, but in reality, they are little more than human distinctions. The subjectivity of borders is also enforced through how rapidly they change through happenings such as climate change and governmental decisions. Even so, we as an international community place a vast amount of importance on these political lines to the extent that we’ve allowed migration to become something challenging and often dangerous to do.

Illegal immigration has long been an issue which divides Americans into several groups with several ideas about how illegals should be treated, but the two main outcomes are very different. At a basic level, half of people want illegals to be deported and half want to offer a clear path to citizenship. The problem lies with the half who want to offer a path to citizenship so easily. These are people who snuck into the United States illegally and did their best to live under the radar for days, weeks, months, or even years. They broke at least one law (if not more than that) and need to be reminded that they can’t break the laws of the country they so desperately want to be a part of. The only response to apprehending an illegal immigrant should be to remove them from the country. However, there are certain immigrants who came illegally but became a functioning piece of society, and being a productive, law-abiding member of society should grant said immigrants a certain advantage in the citizenship process. They've already proven themselves to be working people and they're certainly not causing harm to the country, so they should have an (at least slight) advantage over other people in the citizenship process.

International migration today is closely associated with state sovereignty. States would engage in international cooperation through a wide range of transnational issues, but when it comes to immigrants and refugees, nation states claim that the sovereign right to control one’s own boarders to be the primary responsibility (Sasson 1996). Even if cooperation were recognized as useful or necessary, in properly managing
