The Pros And Cons Of Immigration In The United States?

Immigrants are part of a very important role in our American community. And it is that the historical roots of the United States can not be explained without immigration. Since its independence in the late eighteenth century, the country has experienced several waves of migration. For many years, the presidents of the United States have tried to end immigration no matter the damage or problems they can cause to immigrant families and the country. Immigration from the United States is made up of people from all over the world, people from different countries, races and, colors. Over time, groups of people in the United States government have created programs to help immigrants

Immigration in America goes back hundreds of years and it is important to understand its background. The United States, was founded by immigrants seeking a new life in the new world and throughout its history. In November of 2014 at Del Sol High School in Las Vegas, Nevada, President Obama said:

An American citizen who visits other countries is somehow automatically protected, held to certain regards and given certain liberties, which sometimes the “Citizens” of those countries do not receive. Americans can travel to just about any country without a visa or any form of legal documents. Aside from a passport, they can choose to reside in that country simply because they want to without any form of backlash, ill treatment, or fear for their lives. They get some of the better jobs pushing the locals out of those positions. Therefore, illegal immigrants in the United States do have some constitutional rights that citizens have.

The first effort to control immigration was not to bar immigrants entirely, or turn back those who wanted to travel to the United States, but to set standards for immigration and separate the desirable newcomers who would add to the country from undesirables which would only tear it down. The very first immigration enforcement enacted by Congress was in 1798, and allowed the present to deport anyone that was deemed dangerous to the United States.

Immigration is one of the most controversial topics that have been debated on in the United States. Many people of the government are trying to reform the immigration policies by either allowing those a path to citizenship or to deport those illegal. I believe in allowing immigration in the United States. I believe those immigrants are very important to our economy ,and they help our country flourish. The immigrants ,both legal and illegal, spread culture and diversity for our country. Lastly, one of the most important points is that immigration allows for those to live a happy and better life with their family.

Immigration started with Spanish settlers in the 1500’s and eventually moved on to French and English settlers in the 1600’s and so on and so forth. Nearly 1 million immigrants arrive in the United States annually. Though you may see this is as a bad thing, there are actually so many pros to immigration. One of the main pros, though, is that immigrants are taxpayers, consumers, and job creators. The United States benefits from these things in multiple ways such as getting new homes and stores.

If you had the chance to move to somewhere new where you could escape the previous troubles and horrors you had just experienced, would you? Many immigrants came to the United States because there were many political problems in their homeland that they wanted to get away from and wanted to start over again with a clean slate. They figured that since the U.S. was accepting new people into our country, more and more could come, but that didn't end very well for most immigrants.

United States is the nation of immigrants. Everyone living in the United States has migrated here, whether it was 10 years ago, 100 years ago, or 10,000 years ago. Migrations can take place for many reasons, the main reasons being the search for a better life, escape from poor conditions or as captives. We all have stories that branch out to other homes outside of this country.

In 2009, President Obama became the first African-American president of the United States of America, which makes him the 44th president. President Obama made a lot of promises in his 2008 presidential campaign that he has fulfilled, broken, or compromised. Many Americans know that a promise that a presidential candidate makes is a major deal because those are the reasons in which why the people vote for that candidate. Once those promises are not fulfilled, Americans will feel like the president has failed them. One of the major promises President Obama made was on immigration. He had 6 proposals only involving immigration. Four out of the six proposals President Obama initiated met half way, and two out of the six proposals were not fulfilled.

Do we need immigrants? Immigrants have been helping for decades. Some people say that US would be better off without immigrants but then think about it who is going to help the US through it’s hard times. For many years the United States has tried different ways to get rid of immigrants but so far none of ways have done any major damage.Because immigrants power the US economy by taking low jobs that most people don't really want to do, they work in the fields especially in california to grow food for not only california but for the whole nation, and most foreign workers are smart so they have jobs like doctors, civil engineers, mechanical engineers, etc. Immigration is a purpose of an increasing world that helps promote movement of people,

“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.”

The fact that 1.25 million immigrants enter the United State per year may frighten many Americans (Card). The fact that that number has risen 8% in the last 43 years may frighten them even more (Penn Wharton). The idea of immigrants in such large amounts may bring to mid people stealing over the border or arriving on boats and planes en mass. They may think about people stealing their jobs, homes, resources, and even their children's’ education. However, as this paper aims to show, immigrants are not a threat to Americans or their society at all. The push to immigrants to leave the country or to be regulated is not necessary nor is it true to American ideas. The United States Government should allow immigrants to continue to enter and live

The United States of America was founded by immigrants. In fact, foreigners have shaped nearly every aspect of American culture. Unless a person is of Native American descent, their family has an immigration story whether they are aware of it or not. Today in the U.S., many individuals believe that immigrants are more of a strain to society than they are a benefit. The truth is that immigration is an extremely complex subject that has multiple manifest and latent functions and dysfunctions.

It is evident that the topic about immigration has been rekindled lately with Trump becoming president of the United States, this led to a polarization of the country into two sides: one that accepts immigrants into their country and another side that stands behind Trump’s point of view about Mexicans and other immigrants. Immigrants have been a great influence in forming the Unites States’ culture, history and economy over the years. In 2015 almost the 20% of the United States population were immigrants from foreign countries (mainly Mexicans and Asians), they have been a really important piece of the population of the United States in history and thus they have had an important role in what this country has become.

Immigration is the movement through which an individual permanently moves from their place of residence from one country to another. Immigration is a topic which divides political parties and general debate. Whilst some people see the positives of immigration, such as the filling of skill gaps in low and highly skilled jobs, others see the negatives of immigration, such as the strain on services such as the NHS, schools and housing.
