    We need to think about implementing stricter laws with regards to who as access to the programs intended to citizens. If the Immigration Act of 1917 or 1924 worked back then, why then will it not work today? Another point to think about is that if we had stricter immigration laws the illegal immigrants would not be taking over jobs that legal citizens could be fulfilling.

    Migration to the Americans was jump started with the arrival of Europeans, who desired resources from the Americas. Unfortunately, the arrival of the Europeans decimated Native American populations and transformed the regions of settlement that the Native Americans had previously populated. European migration to the Americas increased significantly during the 1600s and 1700s. Immigrants were motivated to leave Europe by “enclosed” lands in Europe, lack of economic opportunities, political instability, discrimination, and the feudal system in Europe.
