Our plan to control immigration, especially illegal immigration is to build a wall. This wall will involve immigrants, citizens, and other people trying to get over the border. This wall will affect the system of immigration and make it stronger. The wall will take 8-11 months to build. The building will start on the first day of the next presidency. If the wall is built more jobs will be created and the economy will be better. However, the people building the wall will need to get a job after…

Illegal immigration has become a controversial topic. Its relation with poverty and crime has made it stand on a neutral position. The American government has found many different ways to potentially solve the issue but, the solutions found won’t solve the issue of poverty and crime. One possible solution is allowing immigrants to have a work permit. A work permit is used so a migrant can be allowed to work in the country they are migrating too. Obtaining a work permit could possibly take years.…

Sarah Coleman Dr. Mutzabaugh English 110.01 October 30, 2017 Positive Impact of Immigration Having people Immigrate to our country will help the economy in many ways. The Immigrants complete tasks that Americans do not typically want to complete and for less money. Immigrants are also needed because of the amount of people that are retiring. Even though there are many good reasons why America needs Immigrants, other people think that Immigrants are taking away from our economy.…

In the 2016 presidential election, Donald Trump won presidency. In his campaign he promised to solve a lot of issues modern day America has to deal with. Some of these issues included immigration, debt, gun control, etc. I am going to talk about my main concerns about the future of our country. My main concerns about his promises are the issues of immigration, debt, and Common Core. I hope Donald Trump is aware of the power he holds and uses that power to the best of his ability. Donald Trump…

Did you know that there are 11.3 million immigrants living in the U.S? Every year, the U.S receives 700,000 illegal immigrants that come in and decide to stay permanently. You’d wonder why people even come to the U.S since we have our own predicaments in this country alone. They are always going to be questioned on why they are trying to migrate here, but these immigrants do have some reasons to migrate here perpetually. This essay is going to explore why people migrate, some controversies and…

Sanchez was able to bring up some very rational, defensible points through her testimony and opinions about illegal immigration and deportation. And, although I agree with her, and was shaken by what she declared, I can totally see the points and concerns that many Americans have in regards to deportation. The common belief which Americans feel a tendency to believe is also Donald Trump’s belief, who is known to be one of the most controversial bigots (opinion) when it comes to the “border…

The U.S. Congress does have the ability to enact effective immigration reform but in order to do so; Congress needs to refocus their views from being prevention oriented to assisting immigrants in entering the U.S. legally and for a lawful purpose. Immigration reform should provide for the ability for more workers to legally enter the U.S., especially in industries such as agriculture and construction which require a large workforce. The true crux of the problem with immigration reform is that…

themselves. Leaving loved ones behind and knowing that there is a great chance of not surviving the trip is burdensome, but it does not stop them from reaching their goal, also known as the “American Dream”. This term has a variety of definitions. Residents in other countries outside the United States, especially from Latin American, tend to use it more often. From a non-American perspective, the “American Dream” is used to describe what one wishes to achieve, particularly the same rights as an…

discriminated by their skin color. Other people take advantage to one another. I also feel that immigrants are the victims of microaggression too. Why do immigrant people get deported every day? They feel that they are not welcome, because they are illegal aliens. Don’t you hate it when the police ICE agents comes knocking on the door, sooner or later you will get deported back to Mexico?!…

La Linea by Ann Jaramillo La Linea, is a book that I would recommended to read because it is accessible, connects the reader with the story, and has a good character development. The story is about the difficulties that Miguel, Elena, and Javier have to confront to get across La Linea ( across the border between Mexico and the US). The language that is used is very basic and the words in spanish, that make the story more realistic, are translating. In the part of character development, the…
