274 Words2 Pages

Banning immigration is not the answer, and unfortunately there have been so many misconceptions about immigration that even people who are in the country legally are affected by the stereo types. Unless we are planning to give the country back to its rightful owners, we are all guest in this country. You mentioned that immigrants are willing to do menial jobs that Americans are not willing to do, and yes the jobs may not be prestigious however, those jobs provide essential necessities that we all want and need. My job right now requires me to assist people in finding jobs, it has always amazed me how many of the legal immigrants I help are willing to take two and three jobs doing anything, and people who are born here and have the ability

  • Pro-Immigration Argument Analysis

    585 Words  | 3 Pages

    With a topic as polarizing as the United States’ policies on immigration and open borders, a writer would need to make consistently strong and accurate points in order to convince people to side with them in the situation. This is especially true in the case of an argument that is pro-immigration as many people consider pro-immigration arguers to be biased liberals, much like how many consider anti-immigration arguers to be biased conservatives. With this being said, Eliane does a decent job of making a logical plan for the United States to follow and refuting her original point, she should have made a more effective and less frequent usage of quoting, as well as avoiding the ad hominem fallacy usage. Eliane’s most effective paragraph, argumentatively,

    While interpreters and translators can work in any field, they frequently come across a sea of doubts when deciding what word to use, therefore, building a glossary on specialized terms can make our jobs more convenient. Even though this is a time-consuming task, at the end this will pay off. As my area of interest is interpreting in immigration settings, I have chosen to build a glossary on immigration based on the book from the series Current Controversies Immigration, by Debra A. Miller, published by Cynthia Sanner. Although immigration rates have decreased over the years, there is still a huge communication barrier between LEP (Limited English Proficiency) people and immigration staff, thus demanding the need for interpreters and translators.

  • Arguments Against Immigration Reform

    349 Words  | 2 Pages

    Socially speaking, immigrants may find themselves feeling excluded from a society with organizations and perceptions that generalize them as illegal aliens who disrupt and complicate social institutions, instead of being a contributing part of society. Immigrants may feel constantly fearful of the federal and state governments’ influence on the undocumented community, which leads to how divided politics has been on the issue. Many argue for immigration reform while others have turned down the idea entirely. Much of the stigma on immigrants involves their place of origin or religion being associated with such acts as terrorism, drug smuggling, and general violence. This allows those who are against immigration reform, the ability to argue for

    According to a study released last year by the Pew Hispanic Center, as of 2008, 11.9 million illegal immigrants lived in the United States, more than triple the 3.5 million who lived in the country in 1990 (Izumi).

    .) It looks latterly that all we listen on the television news or in the daily papers is immigration and safeguarding our frontiers. Each time I turn on the television or radio I listen about what and how we need to accomplish something to make sure that we secure our sovereign. While I concur that we should save our nation however it appears that by one means or another "securing our country" has gotten to be synonymous with repulsing hard workers who are just here to make a lovely future life for them and their families. It's hence that I am against separation of these individuals.
