The Importance Of Let Refugees Into The United States

Imagine that you are in an airport trying to flee your country because there is a war going on, all of a sudden you get stopped by a security officer saying that the country you are trying to go to does not allow refugees, What would you do? The debate about refugees has been around since World War Two when Hitler was trying to torture or kill all the jews and other people he did not like. Here in America we did not let refugees into the U.S. during the war and a bunch of them were killed, however some did survive. Some people think that we should let them into the United States of America well, others say they should not be allowed to enter the U.S. In the year of 2016 there was around thirty-eight thousand refugees that were allowed into the United States. There were a bunch of other refugees that applied to come to the united states but got denied, because the U.S. did not choose them or they did not pass the test to become a refugee. The idea that refugees should not be allowed into the united states because they could bring disease, they could be a criminal or a terrorist, and they use up our land and resources deserves some merit. However These arguments do not realise that if we bring them into the United States we could save their lives, or give them better living conditions. In this article I will argue that we should allow refugees into the United States, but only under certain circumstances. Those circumstances are they should be allowed into the united

These people cannot go back home because they fear something bad is going to happen again, their only choice is to flee to another country and start a new life, but not many countries let most refugees in due to their religion or race, and the United States is one of them. For example, in the many articles that I have read in my English Humanity class, there's an article from Donald Trump, where he says: “We cannot let them into this country, period. Our country has tremendous problems. We can’t have another problem.” And this is one of our candidates running for president talking about the refugees in this type of way, saying that they will cause more problems, due to the fact that they are dangerous. But not every refugee is dangerous, especially the ones that come from Syria at this time due to the Syrian war. Some just tend to be traumatized and exposed to violence and war, and all they learn is to fight back and take care of themselves, and in a document I read coming from the book Outcasts United by Warren St. John, it says that a mentally disturbed Sudanese man, beheaded his five year old nephew with a butcher knife, and family members say that this act was due to the fact that he had

Regardless of what the United States government ultimately decides to do, it is important to stay open minded in drastic times like these. By attempting to remove the stereotype refugees have to carry around with them, assessing which countries we want to be associated with, and working to help those in need while keeping the security of American citizens in-tact-- America will be playing a very beneficial role in helping refugees acquire

Fear is taking over. All around you is fear, surrounding you, taking control. We let the fear sway our emotions, our perceptions, our ideology. Everything is constantly changing because of what we fear. Our morals are being betrayed because of fear; our instincts are being denied because we give into fear. That is why so many people are afraid to let innocent, terrified people into our country. Although, many see the Syrian refugees fleeing from the crisis into their country as a threat, there is no reason to be afraid. The refugees should be allowed into the United States.

One way Immigrants can boost the economy is that they start many small businesses, saying: “Immigrants start businesses. According to the Small Business Administration, immigrants are 30 percent more likely to start a business in the United States than non-immigrants, and 18 percent of all small business owners in the United States are immigrants” (furman). This is a big portion of people who start businesses. If we ban many immigrants from America, there would be less businesses in America. Not only do Immigrants create businesses, they also can create jobs and can generate huge amounts of money, saying: “ Immigrant-owned businesses create jobs for American workers. According to the Fiscal Policy Institute, small businesses owned by immigrants employed an estimated 4.7 million people in 2007, and according to the latest estimates, these small businesses generated more than $776 billion annually.” (furman). Immigrants are generating billions, which definitely can show that a big portion of money generated from jobs are from

If refugees were able come they would have a chance for a new life. Refugees are coming to America because of the wars going on in their country. These wars going on aren't just any war, this war is affecting kids as young as new borns with blood all over them, people's homes and childhood memories to ashes, and they have no where to go. If they came to America they wouldn't have to worry about their home being destroyed or their lives being in danger as the moment they open their eyes. An example of someones life changing when they came to America is Thafer Kashak and his family. Thafer Kashak works as an assistant chef at a restaurant that serves Middle Eastern food. They went

Thousands of Syrians are trying to escape their government and the terrorist group ISIS. Many wonder why we should let refugees in America, or why any country should allow them. But if Syrian’s cannot come to the land of the free, why should any foreigners come? Syrians have just as many reasons to be in America as anyone else. For example, the education, children’s hunger and freedom.

The welcoming of numerous Syrian refugees into America is contentious, likely to cause or is causing an argument. It 's no secret that our President, Barack Obama, made a promise, a year ago, to bring in at least 10,000 Syrian refugees in the next fiscal year. Those who are all for it believe showing our morals, using non-government help, bettering our economy, adding to our diversity, and strengthening our alliance is what will come out of allowing them through. The opposers feel that the likelyhood of them being terrorists is to great, they will be too expensive, have to use our taxpaying dollars, could over populate, and push us away from potential job oppurtunities, that is why they shouldn 't be allowed here. Are you for it, or are you against it?

A refugee is a person who has been forced to leave their country in order to escape war, or persecution. Recently there are many debates going on, whether the United States should allow Syrian refugees to come into America or not. At the same time, there is a civil war in Syria between the government led by Bashar al-Assad and the rebels. As a result, there are thousands of Syrian refugees, without homes because of the civil war, attempting to flee the country and avoid both the conflict and ISIS. There are many States in America that don’t want to allow Syrian refugees to come into the America, because according to them they think that Syrian refugees can cause a potential security threat to them or maybe members of ISIS can enter into the

A thought regarding the recent attacks in Paris, France: 129 people were killed by Middle Eastern extremists, and 433 others were rushed to the hospital, critically injured. The refugees residing in France come from countries in states of civil war, turmoil and great danger. Similar situations occur in the United States, the issue of refugees is extremely controversial. American citizens can all agree that growing up in the United States has taught us to stand united and have pride in our nation, but are we truly united? It appears not concerning fugitives in our country. To achieve progress in our country today, modern politicians need to overcome the Congressional Gridlock and arrive at a decision.

Americans are known for their absurd amounts of Nationalism and thinking we are the best country ever, yet in rankings from US News, we are ranked at the 7th Overall Best Country. The US is 17 Trillion dollars in debt, and we only come in the top 10 for a handful of ranking categories. Such as Culture Influence, Entrepreneurship, and Power (which has to do with leadership and military). In 2016 we had nearly 100,000 refugees enter the United States, and that is on top of other true immigrants. A refugee can also be defined as… “a person who flees for refuge or safety, especially to a foreign country, as in time of political upheaval, war, etc. “. This is important because the individual is leaving their homeland is search for safety, yet many Americans seem to oppose the refugees from coming to America.

enough English. This may be the free world but if an immigrant wants to come to

The challenges the refugees had to face included the complications of their pasts, and how wars in their home countries altered their lives. From the wars, members of families were scattered not only through America, but through the world from displacement and resettlement. Other family members were shot or killed, sometimes in front of the refugees. “...Luma expressed frustration that a young Liberian player seemed to suddenly zone out during play. Another Liberian who knew the boy told her she didn’t understand: the boy was forced by soldiers to shoot a close friend,” (John 58). In some cases, people were thrown into jail for no reason, or without proof of wrongdoing. Paula Belegarmire’s husband was fallaciously taken from his home and jailed

President Barack Obama once said that “The values that we are fighting against ISIS for are precisely that we don’t discriminate against people based on their faith”. This statement does not seem very true with the way that America is responding to the refugee crisis that it is in right now. Lately it seems as if America is turning people away due to their religion and where they are from. The people that are being turned away are refugees specifically from the Middle East. These are people that are running away from terrorism and war so that they can get themselves and their families to safety. One of the biggest places that these refugees are looking to is the United States. But due to fear among people, the U.S. is beginning to put restrictions

The reasons of immigration to America are endless. America is the “land of opportunities”. It offers jobs, better living, good economy and endless amount of opportunities. It is the land where people from anywhere around the world can start a “new life” with an equal chance of succeeding of failing. The economic difficulties, the wars and the hunger have brought millions of either legal or illegal immigrants to the States. The Immigration has always played an important role in the history of America and the United States continue to have a very open immigration policy. Although, over the years these policies have altered and become more difficult for immigrants as well as their families. Currently, the immigration laws of United States allow
