The Immigration 's Political Policy

Immigration issues have been a problem throughout history. This Society holds different perceptions on the topic. Some people favor the flow of immigrants while others oppose it. Immigration is a social problem that must constantly be reviewed due to the complexity of the problems. In this situation, different factors such as the quality of life for immigrants, how they impact the economy, how the implementation of policies would benefit them, have to be taken into consideration. Immigration policies affect all aspects of today’s society. The key figures in the immigration issue are immigrants, documented/undocumented, political figures.

In a more liberal and democratic country, the immigration issue is greater with ‘unwanted migrations’. For example,

Immigrating is to come to a country of which one is not a native, usually for permanent residence. It goes along with drive and determination to seek pleasure out of life, chase dreams, and purse happiness even in the most desperate of times. Migrating affects the communities that the migrants leave as well as the communities that receive them. There are many views as to why people migrate to different countries, the impact of immigration in countries, and how countries should go about regulating immigration. When discussing the ethics of immigration, it is important to view this topic from both sides and not just one side. In doing so, a person gets a sense of the bigger picture that the U.S. is currently dealing with due to immigration. With that being said, the United States should strive for an immigration policy that can benefit everyone involved as a whole.

When immigration policy is discussed, typically, it is discussed within the confines of egalitarian notions and sentiments, and inside the boundaries and parameters set by generally Marxist-influenced social democracy. Characteristically, it is not discussed pertaining to the concept of a social order built on the rights of property owners, sharers, and contributors to and of the common stock- which at their discretion- may exclude bad apples, lazy contributors, rotten characters, trespassers, and terrorists. Once egalitarian sentiments and notions are rejected full-scale- (only giving credence to those that have empirical weight or logical consistency) more proper, more substantive interdisciplinary analyses may reveal that the current investigative techniques employed by current mainstream political theorists are- in the context of reality, incorrect, superficial and quite shallow.

This paper explores the United States, Immigration Policy from an historical, fair and factual perspective. The Immigration Act of 1990 States limited “unskilled workers to 10,000 a year. Skilled labor requirements and immediate family reunification were major goals. The Act continued to promote the nuclear family model, foreign-born in the US was 7%”. This paper will also explore the demographics and diversity, of immigrants, throughout the U.S. This paper includes an article form the website of the Washington, D.C., Immigration Policy Center, and American Immigration Council. This paper will examines significant research data from the Pew Research web site on Hispanic trends and immigration, around the United States. This paper will also cover numbers, facts and trends which shape the immigration policy. This paper will also include five different books written by authors concerning the immigration policy and public issues which most concern Americans. This paper will cover topics of history of social problems and the policies that address immigration, special interest groups advocacy groups, political party and supporters, social justice and ethical issues, policy outcomes of illegal immigrants and how other countries compare to the United States when dealing with immigration.

In the United States, there are over 40 million immigrants, both legal and unauthorized (Auclair, Batalova, Nwosu 1). Of that 40 million, an estimated 11 million immigrants are not authorized to be in the country (Krogsadt, Passel 1). In recent news, there has been quite the debate over whether or not there should be amnesty or citizenship offered to some or all of the undocumented citizens in America. I have a personal attachment to the subject. I believe there should be a clear and easy pathway to citizenship for immigrants with some restrictions. I support this idea because they provide for older generations, younger generations, and fill jobs

Immigration is both a domestic issue and global concern. It involves economics, politics, and culture. Unlike other current issues, it has been at the center of the American experience for hundreds of years (Tirman, John). Every year, hundreds of thousands of immigrants from around the world, come to the United States. These immigrants have many different motivations as to why they leave their home country; but as currents events indicate, it is injustice, poverty, and violence in their own country that generally make people move to save themselves and to ensure a better future for their families. Many of these people believe the United States is the best place to go, because there is more freedom, protection, and benefits,

We are now in the 21st century and like the beginning of the 20th century the United States finds itself in the throes of a period of mass immigration. More then one million immigrants enter the Unites States, both legally and illegally every single year. Many argue that this new wave of mass immigration may help sustain the success that our nation is having in regard to the way of living that many American have come accustomed to and yet others believe that although our nation was created by immigrants it is time to "shut down" our borders. The truth of the matter is that there will always be issues in regard to immigration and the policies that the government sets forth in order control who comes into this country. Also now

This is largely because the politics surrounding and connection immigration to other topics can be incredibly divisive. Thus, current and past immigration policy continues to be increasingly disconnected from the major economic and social forces that drive immigration. Whenever changes have been made, small or big, they normally take years to legislate and implement. With race and immigration continuing to be a big part in politics, this struggle of major polarization on immigration grows more apparent. With more attention and people focusing on this topic, I feel the anger with immigration's slow movement through the legislative system will just breed more

Many immigrants feel like it is a challenge to be accepted into another country. Some minorities feel as if congress is not doing an exceptional job on how their immigration policy runs. The Immigration policies between the United States of America and South Africa are incredibly similar; it seems as if both countries are not considering minorities to be important in another country. Even though they don’t highly appreciate minorities, they both have an elevated focus for defense of security and health. Congress is blind to the fact a majority of the workforce going on in the United States are not documented. Improving the immigration policy will differ from the lives in both South America and The United States.

Every year, around one million people are immigrating into the United States both legally and illegally. As of now nearly 40 million immigrants live in the United States; 11.5 million of which came to the country illegally (CNN). That is nearly thirteen percent of the total United States population. The role the United States government plays in the handling of immigration from foreign countries both legal and illegal, plays a vital role in the security of the people of the United States and

Phillip Cole’s speech The Ethics of Open Borders also presents a sound egalitarian argument as to why states should adopt an immigration regime that allows for open borders. Phillip Cole, like Carens’, argues that individuals face a moral dilemma—when the principle of “moral equality of persons” —is being violated. He writes that the violation of this principle cannot be justified especially when a state is unjustly restricting an individual’s right to freely move around the world. He mentions how unethical immigration control has become and how immigration control has now become a tool for western capitalist states that seeks to create “conditions of oppression, exploitation and inequality, and borders” that primarily serves the purpose of keeping the global rich wealthy and the global poor impoverished. Cole argues that the global immigration regime has its foundations not in a communitarian or libertarian belief but rather in a system that is promoting capitalism over values

Politics influences our decision both direct and indirectly, it also can force us to make decisions faster in order to take advantage of current situations. One of the most powerful and influential country (United States of America) in the world has just nominated a new president Donald Trump. Within the first few days after Donald Trump was sworn in he signed a few controversial executive orders, one of them happen to deal with immigration. Immigration executive order was instated to ban citizens from seven Muslim countries Iraq, Iran, Sudan, Libya, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen from entering the USA for 90 days (Berke, 2017). This was put in place to evaluate USA option and enhance their security however it was strategically targeted towards

Moreover, the responsibility of countries that often receive immigrants is also argued in Yasmin’s article. Also a question is raised throughout Alibhai-Brown’s paper questioning the possibility of having negative outcomes as a result of having a high percentage of immigrants in a country. Additionally, the author points out the benefits and drawbacks of immigration. Furthermore, Alibhai-brown provide real life examples of racism in many countries around the world. Finally, the author shows how sociesties have the right to prevent action against human rights toward
