Should Congress Pass Comprehensive Immigration Reform?

Many people have come to America for a better life and to get away from all the troubles of their homeland. These immigrants, like those throughout U.S. history, are generally hard workers and make important contributions to the economy through their productive labor and purchasing power. America is considered a melting pot of many diffrent ethinic group. Immigrants should be able to enter America with little if any resistance from any border patrol. Immigrants in america take the low paying, hard labor jobs that , unfortunately, some americans don't want.

People immigrate to the United States every year. I believe that immigration can be a good thing because it can help save foreign lives. It can help bring in jobs to people who are seeking a job. They can persuade us to develop different life styles, technologies, and boost American workers. That is why I believe having people immigrate to the US is a good thing. Immigration has been going on for many many years and will keep going on.

Immigration Reform is a serious and current issue in politics, in government, and in the lives of millions of people. Immigration reform is a term used by the American government and in politics. It refers to the changes to the current immigration policies in the United States. “Reform” is defined as a “change into an improved form or condition, by amending faults or abuses.” So, in a nutshell, Immigration Reform means the improvement of the law regarding how we, the United States, handle immigration. The only reason a country may revise its immigration policy/policies, is if it is having troubles such as illegal immigration. In the United States today, our government is having such troubles – illegal immigration. The statistic on illegal

A controlled, limited, flow of physically and mentally healthy immigrants who will assimilate and are capable of contributing to America with their skills and training is a good thing. The uncontrolled invasion that has been allowed to overrun our country, threaten our culture, and burden our social systems, is a national disgrace and a threat to our security. I’m all for the equal opportunity so for the people who are against it what if your family were immigrants? Then they would not be against it right. I come from a family that is undocumented and that’s not the only reason why I want to make people understand why Non-Citizens should have the right to immigrate but because I have seen my family struggle. Families are away from each other and we can’t see each other because of the law.

Immigration has been a problem since the 1800s but now in the 2010s the immigration rate has increased over the years. We expect the immigration numbers to go up if nothing is done to stop from illegal immigrants coming across the border. There is many different viewpoints to look at immigration, many thinks it's good that they are in the United States because it could help the United States ecological standards. Some others don't like it at all that they are in the United States because of jobs getting outnumbered by illegal immigrants and leaves no american to get a jobs at certain companies.

​Immigration is defined as the act of leaving your country of origin and going to another different one to stay there permanently (Dictionary.com). Reasons, why people escape or leave their original countries, are varied; ranging from war, poverty, natural occurrences such as earthquakes while others just take the step for fun purposes. A reform is a change from the way things were done originally and make them better. Therefore, immigration reform is a term that is frequently used in political talks that refer to the alteration of the immigration policy of the nation. The debate is currently prevalent in the United States of America. It is a topic that has been discussed and reforms put across since around 1986 but it’s never addressed fully due to the conflicting stands taken by the leaders, the democrats, and the Republicans always have different views. Recently, the President Obama tenure has reawakened the issue. Some people support the reforms while others do not. It is a time the United States of America undertook immigration reforms as a solution to its porous borders.

I feel that immigration is one of the biggest issues that face the world in whole. Immigration is an important topic that needs a lot of attention and something that needs to be influenced to seize. It brings so much conflict between governments and individuals, causing disputes amongst them. I often here so much about immigration on the news nowadays. I feel that immigration isn’t a bad thing but when it begins to be illegal is when I feel it becomes the problem. I hear of people coming into America for different reasons such as financial benefits and employment. I think the biggest issue about it is getting those illegal immigrants back across the border. I strongly feel that the illegal immigrants that go to another country to do bad things such

The United States has people coming in and out of the country every day. Most of these people are welcomed at airports and borders, and most do not intend to stay in the United States. Some of these immigrants are tourists, business visitors, students, and foreign workers. Other arrivals are refugees because they are escaping to better their future or from their countries violence and some are unauthorized or illegal foreigners. Several immigrants enter legally as tourists and then stay in the United States, but most enter the country unlawfully by eluding border patrol agents or using false documents to circumvent border inspectors. In the past, the United States was formed from many immigrants whom the Founding Fathers were descendants from and made a powerful country. Immigration is positive for the United States because there are political, economic, and multicultural benefits; therefore, immigration policy should be reformed to allow and encourage immigration.

In the past immigration laws and immigration itself has had some flaws but really is a good thing for the U.S. First off the agriculture rise that has happened over the years. Immigrants help the agricultural rise because most immigrants when they migrate look only towards the agriculture work which includes field work and stock animal work. These immigrants are needed for our everyday agricultural needs. According to (Ed Studdord) if all Illegal immigrants were to go back tomorrow to wherever they came from everything we know that is agriculture will collapse instantly. The biggest pro of immigration in history is the low wage workers. These low wage workers in the past till now have helped balance the economy a lil more. Now 52 of every 100 migrant workers have illegal status and yet they are hardworking.

Franklin D. Roosevelt a former president previously stated "Remember, remember always, that all of us, and you and I especially, are descended from immigrants and revolutionists..." (good reads, "Quotes about immigration"). As a result, we should know that if all immigrants are being deported back to their home countries all United States citizens should be deported back as well. The world is changing. It varies from climate change, to athletes not getting paid enough. Immigration has been seen more in bigger states specifically such as, California, Texas, Florida, and New York. Statistics say that there is greater immigration by 20% in larger states in contrast rather than in smaller states. Immigration Reform has been happening for many

Is there a magic fix? Does everyone have the right to come here to America and become a citizen? As a nation, we have opened up our borders to allow people to enjoy the freedoms that we have. However, almost everyone would agree that America’s immigration system is broken; what they don’t agree on is how to make it right and fair for everyone. Broadly speaking, conservatives agree with tighter border security. There is even some talk about deporting illegal immigrants. Some would agree that the repeat criminals should be sent back to their homelands. In contrast to the liberals plan where they would like to see a path to allow for legalization and to become Americans. Of course, for them to become an American, they would have to pay fines, learn English, and follow the legal process to become a legal citizen of the United States (Smith, P. 2010).

No I don’t think that state and local governments pass their own laws regulating immigration. What is wrong with allowing them to come to the United States to make a better living for themselves and they family. I feel if they abide by the same rules as we do there shouldn’t be a problem. It is estimated that there are currently ten to eleven million undocumented immigrants in the United States. If they are here, make them legal. The Federal Government said that immigration issues have caused great debate amongst community members. Lawmakers, politicians, interest groups, and civil rights activists have been vocal in voicing their concerns. There shouldn’t be a debate, they just want to fit in and be a part of United

Recently the United States has experienced a large number of immigrants coming over to the country within the 2000s. In recent studies, there are about 11.5 million undocumented immigrants in the United States. The undocumented immigrant population has grown 27% between 2000 to 2009. Immigrants from Mexico make up 59% of the undocumented immigrants in the United States. These undocumented immigrants can help the economy and country grow. These undocumented immigrants do have some downside to them, which makes people question do they really help this country. Many people question if this is a good or bad thing for the U.S. economy or the country. Immigrants have helped the U.S. economy out a lot and propose more positives then negatives on

Illegal immigrants have always been a problem for the United States. Entering the country illegally can result in deportation back to their native country. The majority of those that enter the country illegally are here to find a better future. As more and more undocumented immigrants pour into this country, stricter laws are being passed which in terms becomes a controversial issue.
