The United States immigration system is flawed. The United States does not possess an immigration program that allows immigrants who do not already have family in the country or a job to become United States citizens unless they stay for many years with a green card. Because of this, immigrants are entering our country illegally and poverty forces some to commit crimes to provide for themselves and their families. There needs to be a program that will aid immigrants and United States citizens. Fortunately, one has already been imagined. This is the best solution for immigration: the government will provide transition housing with a goal of legal citizenship in the United States.

They will not pay with money, but with their skills and contribution to society. Immigrants will have to apply in advance for this program. One of the main purposes for the transition housing is to provide necessities while immigrants pursue employment. For the first 30 days of their stay, an immigrant’s sole purpose is to seek employment. If they cannot find employment in the first 30 days, they may stay 60 more days and they will continue to pursue employment and will be required to perform 10 hours of community service a week. If the immigrant still does not have a job after those 60 days, the United States will deport them. If the immigrant does obtain employment, they will be welcome to stay 30 more days. Few exceptions to this principle are necessary. If an immigrant is unable to work, someone who has a job or will have a job must sponsor them. If an immigrant is a minor, they must have a parent or guardian accompanying them. If a woman is pregnant and does not have a sponsor, the woman may obtain a 90-day extension after the baby’s birth. If an immigrant is suffering from an extreme medical condition, they may obtain the same 90-day extension. If an immigrant commits a crime while in the program, they will be deported. The government will not permit alcohol and drugs on the premises of a transition house and if an immigrant is caught with either, they will be deported. During an immigrant’s entire stay, they …show more content…
This program will prepare immigrants for American culture and it assists them while preparing to be working members of society. This program allows immigrants to contribute to society rather than reap the benefits of America while not giving back and it helps immigrants to be able to ascend in the ranks of society. This program will assist immigrants so they are not in poverty. This will prevent many immigrants from committing crimes because they will not require the money that crimes such as stealing or drug dealing will give them. There were 177,960 undocumented immigrants who were convicted criminals in 2014 (Shoichet). The transition housing program will significantly reduce the number of those convicted criminals. This program will keep current Americans protected and away from harm. Refutation Transition housing is the optimal solution to immigration in the United States. Transition housing will benefit not only immigrants, but it will also benefit United States citizens. Citizens are concerned about immigration and their families’ safety from immigrant criminals and transition housing will lift the burden of extreme worry. Transition housing will give struggling immigrants an opportunity to thrive in an elevated country. Transition housing will solve numerous challenges with United States immigration and will assist immigrants in making better lives for
