An issue that absolutely has an importance to me is Deporting Immigrants. People come here for a reason and mostly here for a better life and pay. I see on the news that many people are getting deported and makes me highly upset because my parents could be in that position one day. My parents came here when they were in their teens. They work extremely hard to provide everything i need but in return they want me to go to college and have a good job that pays well. They show me that working hard can make anything happen. Deporting immigrants are separating families and makes children grow up without their parents. The president doesn’t like immigrants because he thinks that “They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing

    ...present racism against Latinos. Vote no to an anti-immigration and deceitful act such as the Arizona’s Law SB 1070. Let’s think about what if those immigrants will not let U. S. citizens come to their countries? What if these immigrants cut off all connections with America? What will happen? May be some of the legal citizens will need to their jobs; for example, cleaning bathrooms for living at a minimum wage. Imagine that? As for me, I am not willing to do it; will any other legal citizen do it? Honestly, I do not believe so. Let’s stand up firmly and make our voice be heard by defending our rights because non-one else will. Just some effort and we could make a huge difference to stop further adoptions of this bill in other states. Standing up, united as one soul, helping one another will make our freedoms be validated; it only takes an action to conquer.

    ​In the United States of America, there are a number of national issues that go unresolved and become more of a major issue subsequently. The lack of resolution in some of our nation’s most critical issues is due to the lack of a common ground between opposing political parties. Issues such as healthcare, climate change, abortion, same-sex marriage, taxes and welfare are reoccurring problems in the United States due to congressional gridlock. The cause of congressional gridlock can be attributed to the difference in liberal and conservative views, which can be further examined through some of the nation’s most prominent reoccurring issues such as immigration and gun control.

  • Illegal Immigration in America

    1545 Words  | 4 Pages

    Illegal immigration has been an ongoing problem in America for many decades. The form of law that currently governs the immigration process is, the Immigration and Naturalization Act, and it has been broken for many years as immigrants still continue to pour into the states illegally. The immigration acts enacted in the past that have been continuously modified leads up to the current policy that falls under the Incrementalism model. However, it is important to note that the current American Immigration system is broken and is in dire need of reform. There are 11 million people living in the dark and too many employers cheating the system by hiring undocumented workers in exchange for offering lesser pay. The current system is hurting the economy and bringing down our country as a whole.

  • Immigration Reform

    In the first article, The Economic Benefits of Comprehensive Immigration Reform, Raúl Hinojosa- Ojeda argues that if the United States government moved from an ‘enforcement only policy’ to a comprehensive immigration reform, both individuals born in America and immigrants would increase benefits. The comprehensive immigration reform that Ojeda describes “legalizes current unauthorized immigrants and creates flexible legal limits on future immigration in the context of full labor rights…” (Ojeda page 175). Ojeda further argues that the current U.S. policy creates a wage floor, and if undocumented immigrants gain citizenship, the wage floor will rise, increasing the wages of all workers. The rise in wages cited in the 1986 Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) states that a comprehensive immigration reform would increase consumer consumption and wages and would increase the creation of jobs and tax revenue. This is mainly based on the concept that IRCA was implemented during a time of recession, but was still able to raise wages and investments made by immigrants. Ojeda explains, through the example of the IRCA, it is estimated that comprehensive reform, over 10 years, would create 1.5 trillion dollars in United States gross domestic product (GDP) (176). However, they add that one of the issues with the IRCA, is the lack of flexible limits set on the number of workers allowed to enter the United States. In the 1990, therefore, U.S. labor demands were not met.

    Without a doubt, the European continent has been through a lot over the last few decades. From World War 2, to the iron grip of Soviet Russia on half of the continent, many problems have arisen and been dealt with. Unfortunately, Europe has had a rough few years when it comes to the somewhat newer issue of immigration and immigrant groups. While some countries have managed immigration better than others, nations such as France and Italy have had their fair share of problems and continue to pass legislation that is flawed and draws criticism from other countries. The issue has gotten better in recent years, and various European countries have made great progress towards their immigration policies. In addition, various ethnic groups have been the target of government profiling and discrimination. Most notably the Romani people, who have faced discrimination for hundreds of years and continue to do so at the hands of various Eastern and Western European governments. The many setbacks and gains towards immigration are more clearly visible when looked at on a case-by-case basis, such as the individual policies of Italy, France, and the European Union as a whole.

    Illegal immigrants in the United States (US) have long been a topic of debate for policymakers and the public. The rationale about them is that they do not pay taxes; they add to the costs of taxpayers and use up funds in resources meant for assisting citizens and legal immigrants (the legal citizens). Therefore, they are perceived as a threat to the US economy. The true impacts of illegal immigrants on the US economy are discussed by debating over the economic benefits as well as economic costs of these immigrants. The negative impacts, discussed first, presented the decreases in low skilled jobs’ wage rates for legal immigrants and citizens instigated by illegal immigrants, the social services such as educations and healthcare that they utilize and add to taxpayers. Then contrary to the negative impacts, the positive impacts reveal benefits of low production costs, increases in the local market sales, undocumented tax generation, impact on growth and employment brought forth by illegal immigrants. These impacts, both negative and positive, are independently analyzed and weighed against each other. The discussion does show a slight net positive impact on the US economy in contrast to the normal belief about illegal immigrants.

    President Obama recently declared, “What makes someone American isn’t just blood or birth but allegiance to our founding principles and faith in the idea that anyone- from anywhere- can write the next chapter of our story” (Immigration Reform Quotes).

What many Americans do not understand is that immigration policies affect families and communities and have a significant impact on the U.S. economy.

    I focus on those specific topics because they are very involved in my life. In other words, the Democratic Party is the side that I correspond with and they focus more on the left side of the spectrum. As a seventeen year old student in a public school, Education a huge issue that I focus on, especially since I plan to go to college and new ideas about aid and loans are being enforced. The Death Penalty for someone else may not be any of my business but I believe that everyone should be treated fairly and given options to defend themselves with help, mainly in murder cases. Health Care is also important because it allows people to be healthy and provide them with help when needed. I feel like everyone should have health care to reduce the number of illnesses and it provides vaccinations and medications. I admit, taxes may seem like a hassle but they pay for government jobs like police officers. Without the enforcement of crime, the community would be an entire different environment. Speaking of the environment, we only have one world so we need to do the best we can to take acre of it.

  • Social Justice Issue Of Anti-Semitism In The United States

    Issues that seem more prominent right now than anti-Semitism. These “more important” issues are all over the internet causing an uproar. But that doesn’t mean anti-Semitics should be able to run rampant, continuing their hateful nature. And if you don’t believe this still a problem, during the Olympics, a boxer from Syria named Ala Ghasoun refused to fight an Israeli boxer because it, “would mean that I, as an athlete, and Syria, as a state, recognize the state of Israel.” No one payed attention to this and another anti-Semitic event that occurred at the Olympics. It was not all over the internet. I only heard of it because one of my Jewish friends linked it on Facebook. So those other issues are valid, but if it was covered and cared about, anti-Semitism would become just as terrifying an issue as other, more famous issues. In an age where electronics are the way people see news, and an age where the internet has millions of different stories posted at any given time, the most seen problem is given the attention. Because of this, people do not see the extreme pain and prejudice that hateful people have caused a lot of innocent Jews, because it is not broadcasted.
