Kids who are just in elementary school who's parents work hard everyday to provide for their well being will be left without no-one, what have they done to deserve this? The mass deportation would significantly hurt the business that will be losing many of its workers.

It protected them from deportation and allowed them to obtain a state identification, work permit, and Social Security number. The immigrant communities celebrated this bill as it had been a long time since there was a significant change in the country’s immigration policy.

  • Negative Essay On Immigration In America

    1517 Words  | 4 Pages

    Bills and laws that treat undocumented immigrants poorly and unfairly do not achieve our goal. Instead of denying them work, we should assist them in gaining papers and helping them find a road to citizenship. People flee to America because of its promise: the promise of opportunity for all. Coming to flee war, escape oppression, have a voice in the government, worship freely, and leave poverty behind, aliens arrive in America only to receive poor treatment all over again. The chance of getting a job is slim for illegal immigrants since it is against the law to hire an undocumented alien, but employers know they can be hired for cheap labor (“Immigration Issues.” Illegal Aliens). The jobs offered to undocumented immigrants are typically undesirable for United States citizens since they require manual and arduous labor in most cases. So truly, without these immigrants, many of these jobs would go

    “To end the practice of “birthright citizenship”, all that is required is to correct the misinterpretation of that amendment’s first sentence “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.” From these words has flowed the practice of conferring citizenship on children born here to illegal immigrants.” However, according to the article Los Angeles and California are the most place you can see birth tourism, and it is mostly practice by the Chinese Country people. As a matter of fact, “the birth tourism will always affect the U.S system and resources, which is taking control over U.S immigration and citizenship policy by turning

    With little to no money and tuition costs being outrageous, how can we expect unauthorized immigrants whose parents can’t even afford to pay, be expected to make such a payment without any support from the government like everyone else? According to Andrew Thangasamy a professor at Metropolitan State University claims that “For teens without documentation, cost barriers included ineligibility to apply for most grants, loans, and/or scholarships for higher education through either government or private sources”. Undocumented immigrants arrive here for a better life, and endure the harsh reality that when coming here, they face extreme barriers and discrimination as they aren’t treated like everyone else in the face of the government.

    “The wall will be be 1,900 miles long and lined with 5,000 new immigrant officers.” (Johnson) “That's taller than the arenas where Trump holds his rallies, taller than any ladder and one foot taller than the Great Wall of China.” (Johnson) “This ‘artistically beautiful’ wall will be constructed out of hardened concrete, rebar, and steel, and it will be ‘the greatest wall that you've ever seen’ -- so great that the nation will likely one day name it ‘The Trump Wall’”(Johnson). According to Trump, the wall will be built to keep out any illegal immigrants that have brought crime and drugs to America and have taken jobs from hard working Americans. Not only is the wall going up, but illegal immigrants are being hunted down and deported back to their country by the thousands by new immigration officers

  • Immigration Discrimination In America Essay

    This has caused a strong negative connotation to form around the word “immigrant”, especially those that are unauthorized, regardless of whether they are peaceful or violent. It has also greatly increased internalized racism which has not only caused issues with the natives of the countries, but with the immigrants themselves. Many times, these immigrants, who are often refugees, face ridiculous amounts of discrimination, hate, and even genocide. One example, albeit extreme, is the Holocaust. The Jewish people immigrated into Germany, some authorized, some not, but they were faced with racism to an extreme not commonly seen, all due to the German government, and Hitler, being upset about them being in their country, among other things. For a more current example, one could look at our current society, and the treatment of illegal immigrants in the United States. TV personality and self proclaimed politician Donald Trump has vehemently expressed his dislike for illegal immigrants, and has proclaimed he will deport them all if he is elected. These situations provide a different side of the question. Rather than focused on the problems immigrants “create”, it focuses on the problems immigrants face, which is definitely not exaggerated due to the countless issues they

  • Why Illegal Immigrants Should Not Be Deported

    Deportation of illegal immigrants is like taking a toy from a little boy. They risk their lives to get here and have a better life but then they get that taken away and sent back to the same place where they started. This is also a way of separating families. I'm against this because those families are here in look for a better life. They come in search for that liberty that the U.S promises. They aren’t here to commit crimes, there is enough violence in their countries , thats what they are trying to get away from. They don't come here to be rebels they come here because they need the opportunities to jobs. They don't want their children to grow up in a place where their future is most likely full of violence. Instead of deporting every single immigrant out there in the streets, why not only deport those who have actually done harm to this country.

In the past history of America there has been a major debate on what immigration policy should be in the United States. Many of the debates consist of how many immigrants should be allowed on the country.
