The Pros And Cons Of Immigrants In Italy

1 million immigrants move to America each year due to it being an exceptional nation. We are an exceptional nation because we have more rights than any other country, we are more equal than most, and we also have more of a choice in our government than the rest of the world. America is the one country everybody is fighting to get into due to its amount of freedom.

In the discussion of immigrants living in America, one controversial issue has been whether immigrants living in America have equal opportunities as American citizen do. On the one hand, some people believe that the federal government should be of more assistance to these newcomers by improving there aid programs such as Social Security and Medical. On the other hand, some say that immigrants should not have the same opportunities as others do because they come from another country and they were not born in America. Both undocumented immigrants and those with documents struggle when they come to the United States; because they have low education levels, (health concern) hardly get help from any federal programs, are affected by the fact they

Immigration is one of the contentious issues that continue to elicit mixed reactions from different parties. In most western economies, debates on immigration policies have been on the rise in the recent decades. Whereas the international human rights have confirmed that freedom of movement is one of the basic human rights and hence no one can be deprived, most governments have put restrictions on immigration. Furthermore, the enactment of open immigration policies in various countries continues to raise mixed reactions with proponents and critics of the policies contributing to the debate. Immigration policies usually vary from country to country and within states with both, either opting for open or closed immigration policies. The impacts of illegal immigration and open border policies have been central to the above debate. This paper explores the issue of open border policies and illegal immigration and its inherent dangers.

Italian immigrants were not welcomed with open arms into the land of opportunity. They had to adapt to the new lifestyle without forgetting theirs. Throughout the years, American citizens would be accustomed to having foreigners living in their neighborhoods. The Italian immigrants established communities where they managed to keep la via vecchia alive.

Outside the sirens are singing and someone’s parents are taken away from their family because they are not a citizen, they didn’t do anything wrong they just weren’t citizens in the country. Not every immigrant is the same, everyone is different and they all have different opinions. Immigrants are helping out their family like every other family would and they aren’t just the only people who do wrong choices so do others. Some American’s can’t accept them in their country and say immigrants are taking their jobs. Imagine having children born in the country with foreign parents and they have to be deported with their kids waiting to be adopted by “parents with better lives.” Immigrants are like everyone else, they risk themselves but they don’t

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

Around 1830 larger numbers of immigrants began coming to the US. At first there weren’t lots of people coming each year. Soon, as outside countries began to take on hardships, people began to immigrate in higher numbers than before. When a mass amounts of immigrants started to get noticed was around 1850, when the Chinese Immigration Economic Opportunity was big (Doc. 1). Later numbers began to rise and fall.

Today New York City is home to over 3 million Italian Americans. When the Italian immigrants first came to America many settled in downtown Manhattan, in an area that came to be known as Little Italy. Living conditions in Little Italy were terrible. Large families were forced to live in tiny tenement apartments with sometimes up to five or six family members sharing a tiny bedroom. When the immigrants were able to save up enough money many moved their families to Staten Island where it was more rural and land was relatively inexpensive. Phyllis Lamattina, a longtime resident of the Roosebank area, has the knowledge of the Italian immigrants’ relationship to St. Joseph by Rosebank Church and how important the values of family was to the immigrants. In this interview. Ms. Lamattina, shares a brief oral history of her family and tells of this importance of family and church to the Italian immigrants.

Being an immigrant in the United States is hard. People come here to work and bring their children, because there’s more opportunities here and the country is known for being a free land. But they are being sent back to a place where they don’t get the same things as they do here.Immigrants are also a big part of the U.S because most are in the fields,construction,landscaping, and all these jobs that are hard. Immigrants shouldn’t be deported because they are here to work hard, to help out their families and also live the American dream like any other.

Today, there are almost 11 million immigrants, living illegally in the U.S., creating a massive problem for the U.S. government. What could be a possible new immigration policy? For the past several years, the government has been seeking a solution to this difficult task, yet the issue still remains unsolved. Groups like the Task Force, and even former U.S. President Bush proposed different ideas pertaining to change in the U.S. immigration policy, which can be compared and contrasted to a recently proposed Option 5.

The events of September 11, 2001 initiated another shift in the United States' immigration policy by dramatically increasing immigration enforcement. Immigrant removals, including deportations and so-called voluntary departures, had doubled since the attacks and fewer immigrants, especially from the Middle East are allowed in the Western countries. United States and other big countries in the European Union were the first ones to revise their policy in line with the new context of national security. Since September 11 attacks, the emphasis of American immigration policies became border security and removing criminal immigrants to keep national safety and prevent future terrorist attacks. At the same time, the United States kept its commitment

As the first day of man began, there has been immigration of man throughout this great country of America. Many immigrants came for a better way of life for themselves as well as their family. Some stayed where others went back to their nation of origin, yet they all made an impact on us today as Americans.

“I came to America because I heard the streets were paved with gold. When I got here, I found out three things. First, the streets weren’t paved with gold; second, they weren’t paved at all: and third, I was expected to pave them” an old Italian immigrant once said. Immigrants faced many obstacles coming to America such as finding work, finding a place to live, acclimating to their new surroundings and learning to communicate. When immigrants came to America, they expected their life to become better and have an easier life.

“Between 1880 and 1920 more than 4.1 million Italians were recorded as entering the United States” (Daniels, p. 188). The Italian immigrants of post-1880 were different from other immigrant groups by these topics of religion, labor, family orientation, politics, and education. The 1880s brought a change not only in the amount of Italian immigrants but also the characteristic of them as a group. This group of immigrants was incredibly male dominated, in comparison to the other immigrants of this time, most settling in New York and Chicago. The living conditions that these Italians encountered were not pleasant. It was common for them to live in very crowded four bedroom apartments. Compared to other immigrants, they had one of the worsts

The United States’ Immigration policy is best summarized through the ancient proverb, “the road to hell, is paved on good intentions" when a nation’s immigration is based on entirely on fear, the results will be hell towards the immigrants. this quote )[hook] [Thesis, rewrite] The United States' immigration policy was crafted by racist politicians, influenced by anti-immigration groups, in an effort to prevent and oppress immigrants who were seen as undesirable from coming to the United States. United States immigration policy was created to prevent undesirable immigrants such as the Irish, Italians, Chinese, Japanese, Mexicans, Muslims, and African Americans, from legally immigrating into the nation. From the mid-19th century until now, multiple
