Immigration
The term “immigration” is the action of coming to live permanently in a foreign country. Someone who has citizenship in one country, but enters a different country in order to set up a permanent residence is known as an immigrant. Traveling to another country without the intentions of permanently settling there is not considered immigration. There are two types of immigrants: legal and illegal.

This would unfortunately work negatively with the U.S.’s need for high-skilled foreign workers. A positive of eliminating the need for emigration would be more ability to monitor those entering the country. This emotionally would help Americans feel safer and also allow people to stay in their native land and chase the life they have always wanted. This would boost our nation’s relationship with other foreign countries unlike closing boarders would as well. Spiritually this alterative is also positive. It will have a long lasting effect on people and follows the church’s guidelines to immigration laws. If the United States was to allow only skilled workers into the country, this would positively affect production, industries, welfare, and other social services in the states.
