The Immigration System

Should American citizenship be a birthright? Yes, I believe an American citizenship should be a birthright. Anyone who comes from any foreign country should become an American citizen. People need to understand that everyone has a dream to step foot in America and live their life that they always wanted. Anyone who comes from any country wants better for themselves and family, they would want to leave the past behind and start a new life, this is never going to end millions of immigrants are going to come to the unites states one way or another also, does it matter if your parents chose where you will be born.

People leave their countries and come to the United States to become citizens and find work to make a life for themselves. Granting them citizenship and legal status helps avoid losing their homes and being forced to go back where they came from. Immigration is a natural right, and if people want to come to the U.S. and start a life here, give them the opportunity to do so. Treating immigrants unfair and calling them “Illegal aliens” is offensive, causing racism to stir up. They are human beings trying to find a line of work and make a living for themselves. The letting immigrants stay can bring benefits to the economy, influence good values, and motivate others to chase after the American Dream.

There are about, if not more, 11.3 million undocumented immigrants in the United States of America only in 2014. Mexicans make up about half of all unauthorized immigrants (52%), even though their numbers have been declining over the past years. The numbers have declined because it is said that just under Barack Obamas Presidency has deported 1.4 million undocumented immigrants while in office. An immigration reform would be helpful because it would boost the economy, increase tax revenue, decrease government deportation expenses, and in gaining legal status it will help keep families together. Many people oppose it but with the right regulations a reform, which both parties agree on, can be passed. The United States should pass an immigration

As of 2014, there were 11,000,000 illegal immigrants residing in the United States. Since most of these people are adults and have children they need to drive to get to their destination. They do not have the ability to obtain a drivers license because they are or were undocumented. Then again so were our Founding Fathers. Most people think that they don’t deserve the right to a drivers license because that would just cause more danger to them. However, it would be even more dangerous if they did not have the ability to legally drive in the United States, causing more problems.​

Illegal immigration has raised the question: should illegal aliens stay in America? By letting them stay, they pose as a potential threat of copious issues. Some Americans postulate that everyone deserves a chance at a better life, and then there are some Americans that do not desire foreign invaders inside their home country. The issue is that many immigrants are drawn to America like a magnet because of the American dream. The conception of this is to live a vibrant and prosperous life, by hard work and dedication. Except, some immigrants are unlicensed citizens. Immigration itself is not faulty, it’s when immigrants don’t abide by the Government’s rules to be an abiding citizen. This is dividing America; however, it doesn't have to be this

Have you recently logged into your social media apps or websites and has come across watching videos or reading comments over the topic of immigration? I have and it’s very upsetting to notice on how the history seems to be repeating itself again. There are many people against immigrants in the United States and a few other locations around the world lately. Many of this people want to send them back to their homeland and stop allowing them to come in the United States. Immigrants should be given the opportunity to live in the United States.

The United States Immigration system is very complex. Immigrants have had to deal with many laws promoting exclusion and anti-immigration sentiment. Immigration is “The Immigration and Naturalization Act (INA), the body of law governing current immigration policy, provides for an annual worldwide limit of 675,000 permanent immigrants, with certain exceptions for close family members,” (“How the United", 2014). Currently, “Immigration to the United States is based upon the following principles: the reunification of families, admitting immigrants with skills that are valuable to the U.S. economy, protecting refugees, and promoting diversity,” (“How the United”, 2014).

America, the land of the free, but are we really all that free anymore? Illegal immigrants and flowing into our country daily. The government takes up to about 50% at the most of our citizens income. In the Bill of Rights, our second amendment states that we have the right arm ourselves and have the right possess a firearm. In my writing I will describe my stance on these subjects that many Americans are split on. I will explain as to why I stand where I am, and how it could be beneficial to America on how I see these particular subjects.

The United States of America is founded upon an influx of immigrants throughout many decades. They have shaped our country by bringing a variety of skills and knowledge to strengthen our country than it was before. These accomplishments should be honored to the millions of immigrants living in the U.S. However, not all immigrants receive any honor. Instead, they are put in a position where they are handled very harsh. For example, immigrants living on the streets in Los Angeles, California are beaten by the police for loitering on public property. Out of these immigrants, people assume that they are illegal immigrants, in which it may not be true. Several states also have legislation where every immigrant must pull out papers showing their

Immigration is defined as the movement of people into a foreign country in a bid to become permanent residents and eventually become citizens through naturalization processes. The opposite flow of people is defined as emigration that is, going out of one’s native country and permanently settling in a foreign one. Immigration has been a crucial talking point in the American political scene throughout recent history. Legislators are looking to find appropriate measures that take care of the US labor demands while still ensuring border security by accommodating documented immigrants only. The debate is a heated one that is deeply rooted. Opposing camps argue, not only about policies but also about the politically correct term for undocumented immigrants.

Immigration has shaped America for centuries, building the foundations for what could have been a great country, but is now resentful. Once begging for more travelers, America has now began pushing them away, turning their backs on the people who they were once welcoming with open arms. Immigrants will make the long journey to America, fighting obstacles along the way, only to be sent back home once they get to the United States. Even refugees are not safe from deportation; many people are sent back to their home countries as soon as they reach America, despite the treacherous conditions they fought along the way. The American government claims that they do not have enough money to support the ever increasing population of America, as well as immigrants and refugees, but that does not excuse sending innocent people back to war-torn countries in which they are persecuted, and-in extreme cases- even killed.

Immigration occurs quite frequently in the United States. The US is one of the world’s biggest immigration centers, and this causes some serious problems. Immigration is always a hot topic, especially during elections. People are always talking about it, but can never seem to agree. One person might believe that immigration laws need to be radically changed, while other believe the policies are fine. These laws must be changed however. The process must become easier so that those who truly want independence and a new life can achieve these desires, instead of being turned down.

As the primary elections are drawing nearer, the potential presidential candidates are readying themselves for one of the most dividing and unifying times that this nation experiences. There is a pool of candidates on both sides who are vying for their spot, but the Republican candidates have greater numbers. Whether that’s a significant advantage or not is to be seen. The two presidential candidates that I am going to discuss are Bernie Sanders and Rand Paul, and while they do not exactly share the same stance on the big issues, they are not as polarized as one would think a Republican and a Democrat would be. The polarization between some candidates is so pronounced that there is no doubt who would vote for them in the election; the devout Republican would vote for the Republican candidate and the devout Democrat would vote for the Democratic candidate.

Once immigrants leave our country we will have more opportunities of better wages and newer jobs. Most immigrants threaten our safety. Most of all, American culture is worth preserving. I believe that United States should have a tough immigration policy.

Being born in the southeastern United States, there is a very high chance you are both Republican and Christian. That true regional stereotype accompanies a behavior to discriminate against others. I have witnessed countless acts of racism and religious intolerance along with an irrational hate of homosexuality. Several members of my extended family act this way, as does the majority of Southern society I've witnessed.
