The 2017 presidential election was won by Donald J. Trump, whose main campaign focus was centered on immigration with the promise of mass deportation of illegal immigrants. Since his inauguration, Donald Trump, has kept true to his promise and there has been an increase in the number of deportations, as well as heightened border protection to reduce the amount of illegals that enter the country. According to PewResearch Center, “ There were 11.1 million unauthorized immigrants in the U.S in 2014”, since then the number of immigrants has remained relatively the same (Krogstad). The dilemma that arises with deportation is how individuals will be affected by the implementation of deportation, since it will cause families to split, leave jobs unattained and cause a decrease in employment. …show more content…
This has incited a fear in many illegal immigrants throughout the country, since none of them are now safe from deportation . This fear comes from the plausibility of leaving their families behind if they were to be arrested and ultimately deported back to their country of origin. In an article published by The Huffington Post, titled Deportation separated thousands of U.S born children from parents, they mention that an “estimated 4.5 million U.S Citizen children have at least one undocumented parent”, thus leading them to stay with other family members or enter foster care if both their parents were deported (Foley). It does not seem as though the deportations will cease to be implemented so this reality is what many immigrants will soon face, their families will be torn

Some of who are being affected has no intellect that they are an illegal alien. The effects of the deportation system are unbelievable; children are left alone while there father and mother are torn from their homes. This is an emotional time for these children, considering they are too young to understand. "I didn’t know what to think. Just the thought of me going to back to a country I no longer known, and I have no real memory of… I just went through the moments (How to stop Deportation)." Deportation has been shown to cause families and someone's self, feelings of shame, and isolation. Immigrants live their lives in the United States with uncertainty, for on any given day they can be ripped out of their homes and sentenced to deportation with no legal representation. Their families will not be able to be reached and that causes insecurities. Living day by day with the unknown is very stressful and can take its toll on self-esteem and self-worth. The deportation system not only affects the families and friends of immigrants it also affects the economy; Because there is so much money spent on ICE and border control along with court and the deportation itself. That money can be used for education, livestock, crops, government assistance programs; The list goes on. “More than 46,000 parents of U.S. citizen children were deported in as little as 6 months in
In the U. S today, the approximated population of undocumented immigrants stands at averagely 11 million. Therefore, this has created a hot debate in Congress about the action to take over the undocumented immigrants. Those opposed to illegal immigrants suggest that, their stay in the United States effects U.S citizens on the job market negatively . In addition, illegal immigrants are viewed in certain quarters as takers in the sense that illegal immigrants benefit more from public resources than the american-born citizens of the U.S. However, the reality is that immigrants contribute positively to the U.S economy and pay significantly into the system compared to what they send back home.
Everyday over 11 million people battle with the fact that they can’t be legal in America. Hiding in the shadows, petrified of what might happen to them if they are caught trying to help their kids and families be successful in a safe home. Millions of undocumented immigrants are denied a “path to citizenship” due to immigration laws. These laws need to be altered and should allow these hurting families a chance to be legal. If these immigrants get deported, the United States is losing vital resources, they will fear losing their families, and since they are trying to get right by law, why not give them a chance? Furthermore undocumented immigrants are worthy to fight for, and this is why.
can possibly be separated from their parents. Children suffer from their parents getting deported and not having a family member or guardian that can look out for them. Most families don’t have other family members in the U.S. because they come from other countries like Latin America and from Mexico. That leads for children to not have a second home to go to but to be put in an orphanage home. The children that get separated from their parents suffer a lot. They will no longer get to be with their fellow loved ones especially their parents. It’s not fair for parents to get deported and for their children to be left alone and not have someone to look for them or care. Who knows what will be next for those kids that are left without their parents. Kids suffer and are left with nothing but to hope one day they will reunite with their parents once
Immigration policies have been a hot-button issue for many years now, especially regarding emigration from Mexico. Politicians have started up campaigns promising to effectively end illegal immigration, claiming that it is the source of the United States’ unstable economy. However, similar plans have been enacted in a particularly vulnerable period, with little to no success, indicating that repetition would be a huge blow to both the economy and United States citizens.
Immigration is the greatest part of American history. In the beginning, Immigrants brought a vast variety of cultures and beliefs and turned America in to the beauty it is today.

Immigration is the key to diversity in the United States. The United States (U.S.) opened its borders and shores many years ago, allowing foreign nationals into the country. Foreign nationals refer to the U.S. as “the land of opportunity”; this belief drives foreign nationals to migrate to the country. Foreign nationals must register with the U.S. government and obtain the proper documentation to become legal U.S. citizens. Illegal immigrants and/or undocumented workers are foreign nationals that do not register with the U.S. government upon entering the U.S., or they overstay the allotted time of their temporary nonimmigrant visas. Illegal immigrant and/or undocumented workers receive the same benefits as U.S. citizens such as health, public housing, and educational often while avoiding paying state and federal taxes. The U.S. government must do a better job of monitoring the status foreign nationals.

Immigration has been a controversial topic for over the past centuries. However, along with the election of a new president. the public has also created a fight to overcome the challenges the government has thrown to those undocumented immigrants. Immigration can be described as a person relocating to a new place and settling in a form of advancement. While there are benefits to having immigration, people do not always view the positive side for both parties. Native people often view immigration as a threat to their country by arguing about the lack of jobs and some illegal immigrants take advantage of receiving help from the government. However, according to the Cato Journal, immigrants both legal and illegal contribute to the growth of the economy and the creation of jobs.Regardless of being a native born citizen, any person living in the U.S mus...
Deportation can take place in multiple ways, it can happen swiftly where an ICE officer may show up at their door and take them away immediately or it could be an obduction late at night. Or they could receive a letter giving them some warning so they can get family matters aligned. The unsureness of this process can be very stressful for those who are subject to being deported. Once in the process of being deported they may have to stay in a crowded cell with others who are being deported, sometimes these conditions are poor where they don’t get fed well or their basic needs are not
Immigration poses an ongoing debate in which people are becoming increasingly unsure as to whether immigrants are benefiting their society. This paper will examine three of the main benefits of immigration: the increase in diversity it provides, the rise in skills and labor and the benefits to the economy. Immigration leads to cross-cultural integration, therefore increasing ethnic variety. This increase in diversity is beneficial as it leads to improvements in society, as well as educational development. Increased immigration also means there are more skills and experts available to the hosting countries, as well as extra workers to take up jobs that need filling. Immigration also leads to improvements in the economy as taxes are paid and employment and wages increase.
While immigration for our country is good the ability to become a legal citizen has become insanely hard therefore leading immigrants to illegally cross our border, which negatively impacts our country.
