Some other reasons for increase in immigrates and refugees is the low birth rates of Germans and the globalizing cities in the north according to the Washington Post (Anthony Faiola).

    The only thing worst than being a new arriving immigrant in the first half of the 1800s in the United-States was being a slave or servant. No matter which part of the country you found yourself in whether it be the North, South or West, as an immigrant you would be subjected to job discrimination, residential segregation, limitations on civil and legal rights... However, if a choice had to be made, I would have probably chosen the North because the thought of living in a state that hadn't abolished slavery like in the Southern states wouldn't be conceivable to me. Moreover, I wouldn't have lived in the West since the states that were being created there would have been too recently become parts of the Union and I would have most likely considered them…

Bush in his 2005 State of Union Address stated, “America’s immigration system is outdated, unsuited to the needs of our economy and to the values of our country. We should not be content with the laws that punish hard – working people who want to provide for their families and deny business willing workers, and invite chaos at border”(Bush).

Abuse of government benefits is many opponents’ primary concern.…

The Dream Act is a legislative proposal that will give undocumented people who came here illegally when they were very young the chance to legally obtaining Citizenship. Undocumented students do not face many hardships due to their legal status until after high school, which prevents them from reaching their highest potential through higher education and stops them from being able to obtain a well-paying job legally. This is because “many colleges and universities will not permit them to enroll. Even if they are admitted, most financial aid is not available to them” (David Bennion).…

    Becoming an American “The interaction of disparate cultures, the vehemence of the ideals that led the immigrants here, the opportunity offered by a new life, all gave America a flavor and a character that make it as unmistakable and as remarkable to people today as it was to Alexis de Tocqueville in the early part of the nineteenth century.” (John F. Kennedy, a Nation of Immigrants) I believe that America is an interesting place with all different kinds of ethnic/racial groups. The problem is how the experience of becoming an American is so different for ethnic/racial groups. I find very troublesome to see how people were treated for just because they were different.…
