Immigrants all over the world come to the United States for a search of a new life and new opportunities. Just like any other human being, they just want to have a better job and a new life. Many argue that undocumented immigrants are harming the United States. Donald Trump wants to deport all undocumented immigrants because the only thing that the audience knows about undocumented immigrants are the bad things that they cause. What if I told you that not all undocumented immigrants harm the United States? President Barack Obama was quoted in an article emphasizing that, “We’re deporting people that shouldn’t be deported. We’re not deporting folks that are dangerous and need to be deported.” (Sanders). We should only deport those people who are causing dangerous activities and harming the United States. Undocumented immigrants should not be deported and should be able to get at least a work permit because they contribute to the United States by having an impact to the economy, they do not commit as many crimes as you think, and the country spends too much money on border security. The word “illegal” has been used for several years to describe a person who is If an illegal immigrant is working that is good because they will get paid so cheap that the cost of what a consumer is buying will decrease. That will benefit the economy because productivity will be high. Also, many people think that illegal immigrants do not pay their federal taxes. Most of illegal immigrants pay federal taxes if they have a job in a fast food restaurant. Also, according to Michael Hicks, director of the center of business and economic research claims that, “Ironically… illegal immigrants are the only workers with below average income who pay federal taxes.” Most of immigrants who work at an illegal job or are working illegally pay their federal taxes. They still get a check and taxes are still taken off from their pay
Formally, an immigrant can be defined as “a person who comes to live permanently in a foreign country.” But in some cases, there has been people like Cesar Chavez who have made a difference in history as an immigrant. Unfortunately, there are those who are not as lucky as Cesar Chavez and end up getting deported just like what happened in Operation Wetback in 1942. Now, they have made a way for immigrants to become U.S. citizens by taking the citizenship test. However, Donald Trump is one of the many people attempting to keep immigrants as far away from the U.S. Border laws are also another one of the many reasons why not many immigrants get the chance to enter this country because in many ways the laws that surround the border are in some ways unfair and not really the best. Immigration still remains a problem in our country
Undocumented immigrants are not legally permitted to work in the United states. The undocumented immigrants tend to get jobs that have low payment occupation like farming, and cleaning services. This jobs are where their legal status is less likely to be discovered. (Lynch and Oakford) Undocumented immigrants are now free to get the jobs deserve base on their skills. For example, an undocumented immigrants have a job like a cleaning service, but his or her skills are beyond that. After the legalization, he or she will have chance to apply for the higher
While tangible reasons exists for the need to cut on undocumented immigration, the benefits that illegal immigrants bring to the U.S economy still surpass the arguments against providing undocumented immigrants with legal status. The undocumented immigrants are found in all sectors of the U.S economy and their input needs to be recognized by providing them with legal status to work and improve the economy. They in fact, add circulation to the economy and many benefits that most of american-borns don’t see.
The policies implemented by the United States to strengthen the border and enforce immigration policies have led to the abuse and profiling of undocumented immigrants. Undocumented immigrants live in constant fear of deportation and are subjected to multiple human rights violations as they are abused, exploited and discriminated against. Immigrants are racialized and stereotyped. The US government has passed laws that discriminate against undocumented immigrants, making it harder for them to live and survive in America. These laws are due to the perception that undocumented immigrants are a burden on the US economy, but on the contrary undocumented immigrants provide an economic benefit to the US, and due to the benefit they provide society
country. Along with them sneaking into the United States, there has also been a lot of disrespect and violence towards the undocumented immigrants. In reality, the American people don 't realize that these immigrants are in search of a better life in a country where they can live comfortably without being harassed by the corrupt government. There have also been children trying to sneak into the United States to avoid the corruption and frightening circumstances in Mexico. Undocumented immigrant students should not have limits on their education and should be treated with equality because it 's not fair to treat a student differently only because they were not born
We live in a nation that has been called the land of opportunities, a nation that was developed on the hands, sweats and hard work of many people. These same people are those who are from here but are poor, or who come here for a better life and migrated from other countries some by force and others by choice. We live in a country that many look at immigrants as if they are different from the rest, what makes them different is how they speak or dress. At the end of it all we are all humans and they should not be considered to be call illegal immigrants. What is so illegal about that is the question to ask, and why it is that one word is the one to define someone’s character of who they are. One piece of paper is what define who we are in this
Nowadays, United States is the country that has variety of cultures, races, etc. mixing together by having immigrants in their countries. However, they need to control these group of people also. More people out of country are trying to stay in the U.S. However, this is not an easy process to deal with. There is an immigrant policy that they have to go through. In the past, United States is wide open for people to settle down on this land. There is no process of immigrants. However, in the middle of 1840 to 1880, immigrants started to come in the U.S. such as Irish and Chinese because of demanding of unskilled and cheap labors. In the 1920, automation replaced unskilled labors as a result immigrant’s policy is limited quotas for immigrants
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.
The United States of America, being a country founded by immigrants, is known all over the world as the land of great opportunities.

Illegal immigration has become a controversial topic in politics within the US. Some believe that undocumented immigrants are vital to the U.S. economy because they take the jobs Americans do not want. Others, however, have the opinion that undocumented immigrants should be punished for doing things illegally, arguing that undocumented immigrants are taking the jobs of the American people and abusing them by not paying taxes. Although there are speculations that support the claim that immigrants should be punished, there are several counterarguments that state why they should be allowed to stay. Undocumented immigrants are an important factor in the development of the United States of America, and immigrants have supplied a widespread example of economic, social, and political growth.
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. Immigrants are still doing this. However, the issue with immigration can be it 's illegal status. Many undocumented immigrants are entering this country causing questions among the American citizens.

Every year a lot of illegal immigrants pass the border, 10 million illegal immigrants live in the U.S and more than 1,400 arrive every day and it is just impossible to keep track of them. “ Willing to work for low wages, the migrants are creating a backlash among some residents of the new states, which have seen a nearly tenfold increase in illegal immigration since 1990 .” ( Katel, Peter “Illegal immigration”). These illegal immigrants just want to live in this country, they are mostly working for cash, and they provide cheap labor.

Illegal immigrants are makers, not takers. Many American citizens see these approximate 11 million illegal immigrants in a negative view and don’t want them living in their communities. However, many of these American citizens don’t know why illegal immigrants come here and what good they actually do to this country. Illegal immigration should be allowed because their quality of life is improved, they help the economy, and they bring job growth.
