Essay On Immigration Reform

Trump’s believes that the Veterans Administration, in its current state, is unacceptable. He is of the opinion that the bureaucracy has become corrupted and the politicians that have not done enough to fix it, citing 300,000 deaths of veterans because they were denied access to care. Trump’s position, according to his campaigning site is ,“ The guiding principle of the Trump plan is ensuring veterans have convenient access to the best quality care… [T]he Trump plan will decrease wait times, improve healthcare outcomes, and facilitate a seamless transition from service into a civilian life.” ( Veterans Administration Reforms, DonaldJTrump.com) I agree that the Veterans Administration needs reform, since my family has experienced the prolonged

times in order to access proper care -- being one of the few families that got aid from the Veterans Administration, when most families were denied aid. While it is true that Veteran Administration is in need of reform to better serve our veterans, it does not necessarily follow that decreasing wait times and improving healthcare outcomes are the only reforms needed -- veterans and their families may need aid in the form of renovating their house to make it more accessible to an amputee. Ultimately, what is at stake is the morality of the American people, meaning how do citizens of the US want to be seen by veterans.
Another belief held by Trump is the need for immigration reform.

He maintains that the current immigration policy is beneficial to wealthy donors who can access cheaper labor and punishes the American working class. Trump argues that because immigrants from other countries, namely Mexico, exploit our lax immigration policy to receive health care costs, education costs, and welfare costs, etc. and then send money back from our country to theirs that the Mexican government needs to repay the American people -- by building wall to separate the border. Trump’s official position, according to his campaign site, is ,“They are responsible for this problem, and they must help pay to clean it up. The cost of building a permanent border wall pales mightily in comparison to what American taxpayers spend every single year on dealing with the fallout of illegal immigration on their communities, schools and unemployment offices.” (Immigration Reform, DonaldJTrump.com) I agree that our immigration policy needs reform, a point that needs emphasizing since a large majority of people believe that illegal immigrants should not have the same Constitutional rights. Here many liberals would probably object on the grounds that because the illegal immigrants are people, they deserve the same rights. Immigration reform matters because it decides how other governmental structures function, ultimately deciding the future of our country's economic

state.
