Historically, many people have worried about immigration in the United States. For many years, the immigration rate has been increasing and policies are being created to “solve” the problems that immigration have on the system of the country. Immigration issues figure centrally in the 2016 presidential elections, as Donald Trump has promised to create a wall against Mexican and Central American immigration and to keep all Muslim immigrants out of our country.
