What Is The Impact Of Immigration Laws On Undocumented Immigration

To keep with being an educated citizen of the United States, I did some research so I could properly inform myself on the issues with DACA, or the “Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals”. I had no idea what this program was before writing this reflection. DACA was put into place by former President Barack Obama through an executive order. It provides young immigrants, those who came to the United States as minors, with protection from immediate deportation. It has been available for any immigrant minors under sixteen years of age for nearly ten years. Each two-year period can be renewed. Those who receive support from DACA cannot have a criminal record, according to an article from Fox News. DACA is a support program for young immigrants, also called DREAMers, in the United States.

DACA is a US immigration policy that allows some individuals, under strict conditions, entered the country as minors and remained in the country without legal permission to do so, can receive a renewable two-year period of deferred action from deportation and be eligible for a work permit. The program started in 2012 by the Obama Administration but is currently in danger of being phased out by the 2017

Some might say DACA helps keep our population regulated, stable, and safe. By letting people have the opportunity to work and give back to the states, the immigrants can have a 2 year period to get a stable job and gather a life. This policy gives immigrants rights to work and benefit our nation at the same time. It demonstrates that America represents freedom and acceptance, but also assures

Through the years the DACA legislation has come a long way of providing a great advantage for undocumented students. Through the legislation we have been able to have a stable job and a sense of security. DACA does not only offer an opportunity to financially help the families of those students, who most likely are undocumented as well, but it also offers a deferred action from deportation which allows students to, for at least two years, live without the fear of being taken away from the US. This legislation has helped many students across the United States and many different ways the economy DACA provides a 42 percent wage raise for the recipients which can be connected to higher tax revenue and financial growth (Wong, Rosas, Reyna, Rodriguez,,

The youth that are eligible for DACA must be currently in school, have graduated or have a GED (General Education Development) certificate, have a clean adult criminal record and must be at least 15 years old but not over the

Heinrich & Arkin’s article on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals or DACA Program addresses the current and possible future changes following the announcement of the “wind down” of the current program. The article instructs that we look ahead to examine the possible future immigration policy affecting the legal status of unauthorized immigrants. Understanding the implementation, execution, changing and outcomes of the DACA program is important for anticipating and understanding how the DAPA program and any future policy changes will unfold differently across metropolitan areas

The DACA program is a policy, which is abbreviated for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. DACA is administrative relief from deportation. The purpose of the act is to protect eligible immigrant youth who came to the United States as children from deportation.

According to Bray (2016), DACA is not sufficient in quantity and quality to meet the demands of every immigrant. Although the act has benefitted countless undocumented immigrants, it does not provide a stable future because it only allows “children that were brought to the U.S. who meet other requirements to apply for two years from deportation (removal), as well a work permit” (294). Nonetheless, the act does not offer long term benefits and like many social policies, it has strict requirements such as; age, education, continuous residence in the U.S. since

On June 15, 2012, President Obama signed into law Deferred Action Arrivals (DACA) this new policy will allow undocumented youth who have been in the United States before January 1, 2010 to stay in the United States for a renewable two year period and avoid deportation (“Consideration of Deferred Action,”2015).

The reforming of America?s immigration policy is something that can no longer be avoided and must be dealt with as soon as possible.

Both legal and illegal immigration affect major issues such as jobs availability for all citizens, wages, education in public schools system and in general, health care issues, and the homeland security.

In the United States, there are hundreds of thousands of people whose safety in this nation is in jeopardy. The recipients of DACA, a deportation protection program, rely on its benefits to remain in the US. Not only does DACA keep many people safe, but it provides a variety of benefits outside of simply being protected from deportation. The impacts of DACA on society, the economy, and health vastly outweigh the possible negatives it has on the United States.

The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 also known as the McCarren-Walter Act was designed to reform immigration law and naturalization procedures, putting them under one section of the federal code. It also removed race from the equation but limited to a person skill set and family ties. The act lifted restriction for Asian immigrates; it modified the national quota from 1924. The bill was vetoed by President Truman but was passed by Senate and the house. In this paper, an analysis of immigration laws and the changes that have taken place. What are the effects of being an undocumented immigrant in the United States?

DACA (sometimes called the Dreamers law) allowed people that came to the U.S. illegally as children to stay. Some people say those immigrants should be allowed to stay because they didn’t choose to come to America illegally and have only known America as their homeland. Others say their plight is sad, but the law is the law. Although the DACA program helps a few, this program should be dramatically changed because illegal immigrants can come here and not pay taxes while they get free healthcare and financial aid.

In America illegal Immigration is a major concern that haunts many of the citizens in our
