Immigration Should NOT Be Done The Right Way

Decent Essays
In my opinion, I think that immigration should be legal. I also think that it should be done the right way. It may be a lot of work to fill out papers and to come at the right time, but I think that this would help not only people when they get over here, but it would also help the U.S. keep track of everyone who's living here. If someone comes over illegally, right now, they don’t have very many resources. They are not able to contact the police if something of theres has been stolen or broken into. In, A Better Life, He got his truck stolen and he had to try to find it on his own. This only resulted in him getting sent back.

    “Today, over 1 million immigrants enter our country legally per year, while the illegal population grows by about 500,000 per year” (William Gheen).

    My position is that the immigration policy should provide immigrants with a means of legally residing in the country. In order to achieve this, they are required fulfill a series of requirements. These requirements include admitting guilt, paying a reasonable, one-time fee, paying taxes, and refraining from any criminal activity. These reforms will provide families the opportunity to work and live in the country legally; they can survive without the fear of police busting in their home or parents separated from children. They are provided the benefits and protections the United States has to offer, as long as they remain in good standing.…

    Many immigrants are already helping our economy by paying taxes and helping our society by taking up jobs that many other people will not want to do because of the low wages and high hours.

The United States is a country that was founded upon immigration and it is our tradition to receive immigrants and house them in our country and give them a home.

    Undocumented Immigrants There are 11.1 million illegal immigrants in the US. I think they should have a path to citizenship in the US as long as they have a background check so we know who is coming into our country. If we don’t know who is coming into the US it is very dangerous. But at the same time there are families who want to come into our country for a better life.…

    Over the last year it’s felt like the biggest thing you hear about in the media has been things about immigration. One perspective of immigration that’s been getting a lot of attention lately is the side that believes that we should have heavily restricted immigration and be working really hard to keep out illegal immigrants. A perspective that doesn’t get a lot of media attention is the one that completely disagrees with the first perspective, the side that believes that immigration should be completely unrestricted by the government. What seems to be the biggest group that believes in unrestricted immigration is actually religious groups who believe in natural law, a belief that natural human behavior shouldn’t be controlled by the government…

    Even though many migrate to find a better life , they still have to face many difficulties and are being mistreated most of the time. An immigration reform will not only help immigrants but also the economy, the security, and it will benefit the whole nation. Many believe that immigrants just come to take their jobs , but honestly they are just contributing to the country 's economy.

    Immigrants may even help decrease the crime rate. The migrants that want to live in the country in order to work would obviously steer clear if violating any laws. Unfortunately, there is a con to this, once an immigrant commits a crime they can leave the country as easily as they came. Yet I feel that immigration is a natural right. A natural right is a right essential to our humanity, and freedom of movement is such a natural right, The fact that immigration needs to be approved by government files is a contradiction of that natural…
