The Pros And Cons Of Migration To The United States

After listening to and reading about the Republican Party’s stance on immigration, people learn a particular perspective of immigration. They learn the opinions of a certain group that believes that immigration, especially unauthorized immigration is a burden to the United States. It issue leads people to understand that issues such as this, will not always have a solution. Immigration has always been a problems, and the act of unauthorized individuals entering the U.S. has always been a disturbance to some people. The Republican Party has a strong stance on immigration, and they are not afraid to articulate when they are oppose something. Republicans are more conservative and people learn about this through the speeches given by Donald Trump

Immigrants contribute to the US economy more than they take form it. There is an estimated 45.3 million legal immigrant in the United States. Immigrants accounted for 47% of the workforce in the United States over the past ten years.

I do not believe that immigrants should be able to come to America. When more people come to the America we have to provide more things to make life sustainable for them. Money is being spent, and more problems can be caused. We need to make sure the people wanting to come over know the rules of America, and that they can follow the rules. They should be required to speak english and can have their own language on the side. Not only taking an updated test of the U.S, but given a week on their own here to see if they can handle it and if it is a suitable living style for them. If they can not handle the week living here then they are not fit to migrate over, therefore they truly can not live in America. This will be their own fault and the

“When you cross [the border illegally] with the expectation that you’ll be released, there’s no need to hide, there’s no need to run. You just look for a uniformed agent and turn yourself in.”

Most people in the United States have an incorrect idea of who immigrants are. Migration is traveling from one place to another. People emigrate because they face push factors like poor economy, Lack of freedom of speech, press, etc or bad climate. people who migrate to a country are exposed to pull factors like opportunities, Freedom of speech, press, etc and good climate. Most people that come to the United States are children, Females and people coming from central America.

According to Liz Harrison, Republicans say that President’s immigration reform policies are being sold as “amnesty”, a pardon given by the government to a group of people. They also claim that the executive orders that the President forcefully pushed through have cause the Southern border to start to be overrun. Republicans do agree with the President in that illegal immigration is not the real issue, its legal immigration. Immigrating across the United States border legally is just too difficult and expensive for many of the immigrants entering the United States. Processing times for immigrants can be very long and stressful and most people wouldn’t want to go through all of that trouble to enter the United States when they could do it pain free illegally. Liz Harrison continues that many Republicans against many of the President’s immigration reform policies feel that they are being “demonized” for tearing apart families when they talk about deporting children and being labeled as uncaring politicians. Though the easiest solution is to deport all illegals, including children and families all together, it is a harsh punishment and it should only be used in possibly dangerous situations. Republicans also are in agreeance with Democrats in the obvious difficulty of legal immigration for spouses of United States citizens. These people who are married to a United States citizen and most likely live in the United States at the time still have to go through a long stressful process in order to obtain their green card or resident visas.

I did not grow up in a family where food was always ready on the table for me. After my family immigrated to the United States, harsh realities forced both of my parents to work long hours in order to provide for our family. Under such circumstance, I rarely had the company of my parents and was forced to take care not only for myself but also the rest of my family.

After being elected as the 45th President of the United States, Donald trump has moved on to deal with the issue of immigration in the country. In one of the attempts, the President has backed a plan to cut the number of legal immigrants coming to the nation by half. The plan was proposed by Tom Cotton of Arkansas and David Perdue of Georgia with an aim of amending the 1965 law to cut the number of legal immigrants to the country by half. The amendment also states that entry will be based on the skills of the immigrants but not family ties (Kerwin 11). The President aims at prioritizing American citizens as addressed in his campaign slogan of making America great again. The immigrants benefiting from the program are those coming from poor countries. As any other amendment, the move will have both positive and negative effects to some people including my whole family. After analyzing the issue, I don’t agree with the plan to cut legal immigration in half.

Immigrants came to the European countries because they are searching for work so that they support their family financially. People's view immigration as bad over time because of hostile views of politicians or political parties, people think immigrants are outcasts just because of their cultural differences, and they are opposed and racist to the immigrants & give the immigrants excessive work than the others. The immigrants look different, so the people and politicians think that they do not fit in with the rest of the people and they cannot have the same rights as the citizens or the rest of the people do. When the immigrants first got here, they wanted to get a good job and a better life than they had during the experience in their colonies.

In America we have very distinct class system. You’re either poor, middle class, or wealthy. Of course America’s class system is flexible, so you can move up-or down easily. The only problem is most people don’t succeed in moving up, and if they do it’s a whole new world. Your social class makes it so you have a different perspective on immigration. This idea is shown when you compare “Quilt of a Country” and “The Immigrant Contribution”.

It is time to fix a system that has been broken for far too long: America is a nation of immigrants; it’s the backbone of the country. This nation needs to rise and live to the true meaning of the word freedom and not to the ambiguity it has been changed to. As its father George Washington once said, “ The bosom of America is open to receive not only the opulent and respectable stranger, but the oppressed and persecuted of all nations and religions” and it is a insult that someone who calls himself American does not respect the wise words of whom who made the American Dream possible. Migration enables thousands of opportunities that give the chance for countries to flourish. Discordant to what most of society takes as a fact, immigration has

There always has to be a restriction on immigration as the U.S can’t handle millions of immigrants that are either crime-ridden, diseased, or just poverty-stricken people but are sure to let in immigrants who are seeking opportunity. During the 18-19 centuries, immigrants from around the world wanted to come to America as it was the land of opportunity. Presidents like Woodrow Wilson set the bar for immigration as he was a supporter of restriction but not selection. The U.S does not need these type of people in the country as they give no benefit to the U.S. Of course not every immigrant is crime ridden or diseased but that's why the U.S made special tests which can sift out the unacceptable immigrants who will have a negative effect on the U.S and bring in the acceptable immigrants who could enhance the U.S. As Woodrow Wilson once said, “ we have generously kept our doors open to all who were not unfitted by reason of disease or incapacity for self-support or such personal records and antecedents as were likely to make them a menace to our peace and order or to the wholesome and essential relationships of life.”(Wilson Doc B). As many others wanted to pass a bill for immigrants to take a test of their education but President Wilson rejected the bill as it was unfair to the immigrants as some mainly come to the U.S for education. There still must be tests that not select certain immigrants but restrict immigrants who are unfit to come into this country. There’s a difference

Are you American? Do you qualify to be an American? Many people reading this would automatically say yes, but are you really? The reality is that the only factor making you American is that you are born here but that does not give you an advantage. It is your birthright to be distinguished as an American soon as you come out the womb anywhere on U.S. soil. More specifically, your birthright citizenship. What does that mean “birthright”? The people inhabiting this country live,work and die here so does that not automatically make them American? Would that not make it their birthright too? It actually doesn’t. Many people that reside in America are not American. They come from multiple countries such as Mexico, India, China, and Cuba which makes them foreigners, also known as immigrants. America is one of the biggest immigration countries ranking in a total of 46,627,102 immigrants in 2015 making them 13.3 percent of the nation's population. With such a huge population of immigration, which is increasing in size by day, why are they called foreigners and immigrants? Why are they still not considered American? Does this give them an disadvantage or advantage of being here? Numerous individuals feel sympathy for immigrants. They believe they have a harder time in situations such as adjusting to an new environment, getting jobs, learning a new language, receiving health care, pursuing education and just life in general. Turns out, they are better off than we are lead to

In the general mind, the undocumented population living here outside of recognition from American law are hispanic, mainly Mexicans that pass over the border unknown. In the opinion of their supporters, they are individuals taking the labor others do not want. Living here to make a honest, safer and overall better living for their families as well as themselves. At the White House, they are social outcast, lawless risks that are threats to the American neighborhoods, American jobs, sap Americas resources and need to be expelled. Undocumented immigrants can be a number of things. About eleven million gives room for a considerable range of conclusions. Today there is no other vicarious symbol then the wall President Trump has proposed, however this is type of scrutiny isn't the first of it’s kind. Opposition for immigrants has been seen throughout time which is why they have had courageous leaders that stand up to defend “La Raza.”. Today immigrants are not alone in their struggle, they are joined by civic organizations such as labor unions, churches, other faith based organizations, civil rights groups, and student organizations. Immigrants advocacy is multicultural and multiethnic in character, bringing together mixture of immigrants from different countries to fight against exclusionary policies.
