It is supposed to give amnesty to aliens who had been living in a foreign country for years. Illegal immigration has been a controversial issue nationwide for centuries having major effects on the people, country, economy, and safety of the nation. The United States must remain true to…

The issue of immigration reform is in full swing. Already a group of both democratic and Republican Senators on Monday presented an initiative that could become a draft law for immigration reform, also that President Barack Obama said Tuesday that in the event that the senators not drive Bill quickly himself would be who would send its proposal for the above-mentioned reform.

America's current immigration system is broken. Many employers exploit the system - hiring undocumented workers - and there are millions of people living below the sight of the government, harming both the economy and the country. Both Congress and President Obama realize that something must be done to solve this immigration problem or else the country will continue to suffer. However, partisan ideals is what will keep reform from ever coming to fruition. Immigration reform policies should not…

Immigration is a very perplexed issue that can only be addressed appropriately by the federal government. Article I Section 8 of the Constitution clearly states the federal government was given the power to “establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization.” () Immigration legislation requires a substantial amount of funds, a vast personnel and most importantly time.

Immigration reform has been a highly contested political issue in the U.S. for years.

recall this poem by Emma Lazarus when deciding the United States’ position towards immigration, but does this perspective reflect the recent sentiments of the White House under our current president? This was a heated topic for debate during Obama’s term as president, which brought to light many stances on the subject and was even reviewed by Supreme Court.

Immigration is an issue that established nations have been dealing with for decades. The first question that we have to ask is why do people emigrate? Well, according to Anup Shap, emigration happens from a result of warfare or persecution; it could come from financial prospects and the allure of a better life in an industrialized nation.
