Illegal Immigrants

In the United States, there are roughly eleven million people who can be classified as illegal immigrants, which is by far way too many. When it comes to the history of illegal immigrants, most United States citizens could be considered as an illegal immigrant. In the early years of American history, our ancestors fled into this country for better life styles and to start their own families. During this time there were not laws dealing with who could and could not enter this country illegally, so we cannot be classified as illegal immigrants. The United States of America needs to place more rigid laws regarding immigration by enforcing stricter border control policies and place a greater emphasis on becoming a legal citizen.

We all come from different places and ethnicities, and because of having a dream, people fled away from their home to seek for something to make their life better. Going to a country like United States, is not only a dream but also, an opportunity because many people think that America is the best place to settle in, where work, and education are an easy access. Though this statement is partly true, it is not that easy. Everyone envied because America is a great nation because it's a country of opportunity, but a part of it also is a mixture of feelings that are hard to explain especially if you are immigrant. Every day in your life, you are fighting for something in order to fit in and survive. However, in the process of fitting in or blending to a certain place, people, and culture, it requires a lot of personal choices and a lot of effort as an immigrant. It does not only affect you as a human, but also it draws a lot of attention, conflicts and tension between the government and community. Most immigrants have a harder time to adjust or assimilate even though they speak fluent English and eat American foods. Whenever you see a person of white complexion, people assumed that blue eyes and blonde hair are the characteristics of an American, though these are how we perceived American long time ago, this are still the standards of a few now and doesn’t make a big change at all. The judgement of how a person look physically and how they

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

Are illegal immigrants or undocumented immigrants beneficial to America’s economy? Most illegal immigrants have a positive impact on the United States (U.S.) economy. Illegal immigrants have a positive impact on the United States economy because they increase our tax revenue, they add to our social security, and they also increase our employment rates.” In 2000, statistics revealed 8.7 million illegal immigrants resided in the United States” (Knickerbocker pgs.11-12). “A study of illegal immigrants living in Texas showed a 420 million dollar increase in the states economy” (Strayhorn). Companies risk hiring illegal immigrants

Illegal immigrants have been a hot topic lately due to the popularity of this topic amongst the Republican Presidential Nominees, especially Donald Trump. These illegal immigrants bring various things to this country when they come. Some things are positive, such as a family simply seeking to find a better life, while some things are harmful to the United States, such as the amount of crime among illegal immigrants. In July 2015, the most recent estimate of illegal immigrants was 11.2 million. This same data shoes that 56 percent of all deportations last year were convicted criminals, which accounted for 177,960 individuals (Shoichet, 2015). Crime among illegal immigrants is a problem, and sanctuary cities, which are supposed to be a solution, may be making this problem worse.

“Everywhere immigrants have enriched and strengthened the fabric of American life,” (John F. Kennedy). Latino immigrants are some of the most unappreciated members of the US population, yet they constantly keep the United States alive, and thriving. They frequently get taken advantage of by big corporations, denied their rights, and are never taken seriously by law enforcement, all because of their limited English and their lack of familiarity with the United States workplace.One such company that carries out such devious tactics is a company by the name of, Taylor Farms. Undocumented Latino immigrants at Taylor Farms need a voice, because it is a moral obligation to expose and eradicate this form of modern slavery. Impoverished

Except for crisis medicinal consideration, undocumented outsiders are not qualified for governmentally financed general medical coverage programs, including Medicare, Medicaid and the Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP). There is no sorted out, national system to give human services to undocumented youngsters. U.S.- conceived kids in blended status families might be qualified for Medicaid or CHIP on the off chance that they qualify on the premise of wage and age. Albeit elected assets may not be utilized to give non-crisis medicinal services to undocumented foreigners, a few states and nearby governments utilize their own

In 1720’s immigrants came to the U.S. to work in farms and help the economy grow. Since then, countless have continue to come and have worked in different environments. Immigrants are looking for a better life, none of them want to leave their native country but they have to. Several of them have different reasons, some come to U.S. for a better pay rate, others come to run away from violence and some come to give their children a better life and a better education. Some parents even go to the extremes to just send their kids through the border alone, because they think that their kids will have a better life in the U.S. Undocumented Immigrants work in farms, fast food restaurants and others work in manufacturing companies. A lot of of them

A documented immigrant is usually an immigrant who has lived here for a while and have the chance to expand and maintain a stable lifestyle. They are usually able to manage and work in high paying jobs. The work that they do usually comes with multiple side benefits such as health care, sick days, and vacation pay. Jobs, such as cashiers, or driving for a pizza store, or other careers that require a degree. As long as documented and has the authorization to work, many documented people are able to settle in Boston, since it’s a city with a lot of opportunities.

Contrary to belief, many immigrants do not want to come to America, they are forced to move to America because they have no other option. Immigrants aren’t criminals crossing the border to bring in drugs or steal jobs, they are creating a new life in America. Immigrants are fleeing their country because of poor government, poor education, and crime. Immigrants deserve our sympathy, when pilgrims came to America, they too, were forced to leave their native country and hope for a better life. Furthermore, immigrants boost the economy and abide the law. While immigrants do take jobs from other Americans, those positions were not made specifically for Americans. Immigrants have every right as americans do to work. As far as illegal immigrants “stealing” jobs, it is not their fault for getting hired, it is the corporation that hired them. To immigrants, america is a symbol of liberty and a chance to succeed, Americans should not punish them for seeking a more prosperous future.

In the past few years a dispute has risen in the middle of the controversy about illegal immigration and border security. Are the children of illegal immigrants U.S. citizens? This a question that has provoked intense arguments and various attempts to change the birth right law established in the Fourteen Amendment. Many conservative people believe the sons and daughters of undocumented immigrants shouldn’t be granted American citizenship. They interpret the 14th amendment to exclude anyone whose parents are not legal residents of this country. There has even been attempts to change the Constitution and the Fourteen Amendment more exclusive. Doing so would leave many people without nationally. Regardless of the countless arguments everyone

The article “My Life as an Undocumented Immigrant” was written by Jose Antonio Vargas. In it, Vargas tells of the time when his mother brought him to the Phillippines’ Ninoy Aquino International Airport when he was twelve. His mother told him that she wanted to give him a better life so he boarded onto a plane with a man he had never met before and was told that he was his uncle. He arrived in Mountain View, California and moved in with his grandparents Lolo and Lola. Vargas says that he grew to love his new home and when he entered sixth grade that’s when he found his passion for language. He tells of his struggle of making a distinction between “formal English and

Immigrants break laws. Immigrants cannot even speak English. True, in certain cases immigrants do take jobs, but these are usually jobs nobody wants. “Look at Arizona, for example, in 2010 they passed the toughest immigration laws in the nation. Five other states even followed them. Even though they were saving millions of tax dollars a year but still having serious economic problems” (Duara). According to a study by Moody’s Analytics the 200,000 illegal immigrants who left Arizona reduced their GDP by two percent a year and decreased overall employment. Additionally, immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than the people born in the United States. “Currently we do have an estimated 820,000 or 7.5% of all undocumented aliens who are “criminal aliens” (Department of Homeland Security). This is why there must be a distinction between those seeking asylum for their safety and those coming here for the wrong reasons and avoid incarceration in their home country. Finally, there must be a serious effort to make any asylum seeker learn English. This is for their own benefit by getting better opportunities. They can keep their own culture and remain American it not one or the

Are you tired of every blue collar job in America going to the illegal Mexican immigrants. All of them are taking your jobs and working less just because they are from Mexico. That stupid liberal Obama won’t do anything about this problem so you have to take the situation into your own hands. The only way to securely make a living is to have a degree in a useful skill. The American Employment College is the best and cheapest way of obtaining a degree. If you don’t get an education you won’t be able to get a job in this competitive environment, and if you don’t get a job the unemployment rate will skyrocket, which would mean that the economy would collapse, which would lead to the downfall of the U.S.A.

Illegal immigration is a very controversial topic in America today. There is a controversy over whether or not America should be allowing these illegal people in, and whether or not they should receive privileges reserved for American citizens. The humanitarian argument is to let everyone who needs help in and to allow them to establish residency and be afforded all of the privileges of a citizen, which would include welfare, public schools, etc. However, the overall state of the country must be considered over that of the happiness and comfort of non-citizens. People need to realize there are many negative consequences to letting these people in, besides the fact the crime of crossing the border has already been committed. Despite people
