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.

Some American’s can’t accept them in their country and say immigrants are taking their jobs.

For instance, the economy of American mainly is based on high technology, because the most outstanding people who come from different countries make a great contribution on high technology. Moreover low skill immigration also makes contributions on cleaning, cooking, and waiter services. They buy food, clothes, house, which also promote the development of the economy.
Immigration is what has made America what it is today. In fact, there would be no America without immigration; because everyone in the country is an immigrant or their four fathers settled down in United States over the period of time. The United States experienced wave of immigration in the first part of the 19th century and from the 1880s to 1920, where many immigrants came to America seeking greater economic opportunity, and few in 1600 as pilgrims arrived in search of religion.

Whereas if the majority of immigrants choose to not work, commit crimes, and rely on government aid programs to take care of them and their family then they will definitely not be a positive influence on the U.S.
