However, the Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees outlaws the act of penalty imposition on refugees for their illicit entry by contracting states. The Convention is only applicable if the refugees’ cross borders as a result of a direct threat into their freedoms or lives. War and asylum motivated immigrations was rampant during the Arab spring that rocked Tunisia, Egypt and some countries in the Arab World. It has also been evidenced in Colombia and El Salvador.

Immigrants and native-born workers are usually in different job markets, so they don’t compete against each other for jobs. According to Diana Furchtgott-Roth, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, low-skill immigrants are prominent in occupations such as janitors, landscapers, tailors, plasterers, stucco masons, farmworkers, dishwashing, lawn care, and house care. On the other hand, low-skill native-born workers usually find work in service and sales jobs (Hackbarth).…
