...I am not for immigrants in the United States of America. I think that there should not be any immigrants in the United states. They should be deported from the country. They take all of the jobs from our citizens. They are also taking money from our people. Americans pay taxes for things like Welfare, which give money to people in need. Most of those people that are on welfare, are immigrants. Immigrants should be deported for many reasons. Most undocumented workers are in relatively low skilled jobs, but about a quarter are in administrative jobs. Of those, about half are in management, finance, or professional careers. Removing large numbers would have a very significant impact on the businesses that employ them. So they have to be deported...

...Why do illegal immigrants risk everything by trying to get in the U.S.A? They come in hopes of a better life, so they don’t have such a risk of being killed or the victims of other crimes, as a higher crime rate is quite common in central America and South America countries. Deportation also separates family members from each other, children from a parent, or children from both parents in some cases. Illegal immigrants that haven’t committed serious crimes shouldn’t be deported, instead they should have a path to citizenship instead of being forced to go back to the dangerous situations they started in. Deporting illegal immigrants will separate families, takes parents from children, and have lasting psychological effects on them. Parental deportation can have effects on children and long lasting harm can occur at emotional, economic, developmental and academic levels. The economic and social instability of having illegal status is worsened by having a deported parent. The second report states that economic hardship is highly prevalent following a parent deportation, because losing a parent eliminates a source of desperately needed income. Children with deported...

...Should Illegal Immigrants be Deported from The United States? An English writer and novelist, called Richard Rayner, once said; “The real point is that there isn’t any immigration crisis” (Dudley 22). An abundant amount of undocumented people cross the border everyday seeking a better way of living; for Americans, this is an issue that the U.S. has to face every day. Rayner asserts that undocumented people don’t present a national crisis. When illegals come to America, they seek for a job and, by law, have to pay taxes. If the United States actually held undocumented individuals as a threat to its economy and society, this country would not have made the amount of progress it has socioeconomically. Although citizens argue that they harm America, Undocumented people have actually boosted the U.S. economy because they have done more good than harm. One reason why undocumented people shouldn’t be deported is that they contribute to a richer diversity and culture. Illegals share their customs and traditions with everyone. Most of restaurants...

...states. Many people have done that when they feel that their country is in danger. So now that they have gone through a lot to get here, what have they done? Found a job to provide for a family. Why send them back to something they are trying so badly to get away from? If you don’t want them to be a drain in society, let them find a job somewhere and pays taxes. The United States helps every country on the planet to fight their wars, but a few people that come across the border is a problem? This topic is relevant to today’s society because thousands of illegal immigrants are getting deported back daily. Not only will it take some time, it will also use a huge amount of money just to send the large amounts of immigrants back. Everything, including...

...Immigrants Argument Writing Have you ever wondered why immigrants come here legally? Immigrants could come here for a new start of doing something good. They could start a new life here and help the economy to become a better place. Immigrants could come here to meet their family when they got torn apart or to have a chance to do something that they wanted to do. Undocumented immigrants should get a path to citizenship because immigrants help boost the economy, families could get torn apart, and it cost to much for immigrants to get deported. One important reason that undocumented immigrants should get a path to citizenship is that immigrants help the economy. According to Senators Charles E. Schumer in upfront magazine, 2016. “We...

...the world are gunning down immigrants instead of making an attempt to arrest them and bring them to justice. We all know that by preventing immigration in the United States we can reduce our population, poverty, and the crime in our streets; however, not all immigrants that come to the United States cause harm to this country. People assume that just because a person broken the law by coming to this country illegally, he or she is a bad person and should be deported right away. The United States is deporting immigrants so they can help reduce our population, poverty, and crime, but what they do not realize is that may deporting the wrong immigrants. People think that all immigrants have no business in the United States and should be deported back to their countries. What people do not know is that some immigrants come the United States for a better life and to avoid the hardships they encounter back in their countries. They the choose the United States as a place for a new beginning and a new start to life; therefore, many immigrants that are already in the United States try their best to become US citizens to avoid deportation back to their country. Sadly, if they get deported they will no longer be able to come back to the United States to obtain a better life. Not all immigrants have a negative effect on the US, as there are some immigrants who are hardworking and very determined to improve their life status. In order to prove that an immigrant has truly come to the US in...

...the United States are immigrants or their American-born children. How did these people get here? There are many laws to allow immigrants to move to the United States. The USA is a country for immigrants wanting a better life, but not all are welcome. These laws restrict immigrants from the United States. Only 675,000 immigrants are allowed access to the United States every year according to the Immigration Act of 1990. (pg. 10) Current immigrant laws need to be reformed so that more immigrants can be allowed into the US, there will be a better way to decide which and how many refugees can come, and illegal immigrants have an easier way to become a US citizen. 675,000 is the cap for number of immigrants...

...Many people claim that illegal immigrants are a big problem for this country, but in all honesty, it would be a bigger problem for this country if we tried to deport them all. There are many reasons why we should let the illegal immigrants stay in this country. We should not deport illegal immigrants because it would be extremely difficult and expensive, they are helpful and do not bring as much crime as people say, and it is unethical. First off, we should not deport illegal immigrants because it would be extremely difficult and expensive. Article 5 states that the cost of deporting one person is about $8,318 to $23,000. Now multiply that cost by 11 million. There are so many better things that the U.S. could use that money for. Article...

...Reform Roughly 12 million illegal immigrants are in the United States, about 4 percent of the nation's population. Many undocumented children were brought into the U.S. by their illegal immigrant parents as babies or toddlers. Nearly 4 million children who have at least one parent who entered the U.S. illegally were born in the United States and are U.S. citizens as a result. According to the study conducted by the Pew Hispanic Center, the majority of illegal immigrants, about 7 million, come from Mexico. The U.S. government should change the requirements for obtaining legal status for illegal immigrants. The DREAM (Development, Relief and Education of Alien Minors) Act is proposed federal legislation that would allow the children of undocumented immigrants who graduate from high school to earn conditional permanent residency if they complete two years in the military or at college. Eligible students must have entered the US before the age of 16, been living in the US for at least five consecutive years, be between the ages of 12 and 35 at the time of applying, and have good moral character. The legislation was first introduced in the Senate in August 2001, but was stalled in Congress for 9 years and most recently re-introduced in the Senate and House in March 2009. The DREAM Riddick 2 ACT would help immigrant students become legal residents of the United States and not face being deported, like Jessica and Oscar Oscar Vazquez...

Mother Jones Writes, “Immigrants are worried at this time because they might be deported” (Jones 3) back to Mexico for not having documents to be here in America. Illegal immigrants should not be deported because they are valuable for the economy; by having immigrants working in the United States it allows the working industry to be more productive. Allowing immigrants to work high-skill and low-skill jobs it can lead to increased economic growth and aid society.

...passing a bill without the consent from Congress to reform the immigration system. He had decided that if an illegal immigrant had been living in the United States, since 2010 or earlier, and had a child who had been born in America, they would be eligible to gain legal documentation. Immigrants will also have to pay their fair share of taxes and pass a criminal background check. Unfortunately, this law does not apply to immigrant children under the age of 18 unaware of the fact they had been crossing the U.S. border illegally with their family. The children that were brought here illegally by their parents should be granted a path to legal citizenship to be able to study and soon work legally in America. Back in November of 2014, Republicans in congress had not supported the decision President Obama had made with reforming the immigration law. Although, they were not the only ones who had not supported the President’s decision. Some citizens in America don’t see past the dozens of myths about immigrants. For example, some Americans believe immigrants come to the United States to not pay taxes and take job opportunities away from Americans. If the children are granted legal status, then they will soon be paying their fair share of taxes as they become older and find employment because they will be capable of obtaining a work permit. Studies find that immigrants pay between 90 and 140 billion dollars a year in federal, state, and local taxes (immigrationfourm.org). As for the...

...immigrations, such as immigration laws. Many questions come up about this topic in today's society, like how do we stop immigration or do we even stop it? Not all immigrants are bad some are useful to the United States; we have to remember that the first people in America were immigrants. We do not have the right to deport others back to their native land. Many people from different countries try so hard to get to United States looking for a better life. There are many reasons why immigrants migrate to different countries, especially the United States of America home of the free. Some reasons are employment opportunities or careers that are not available in their native land, improved quality of life, and refuge from war. Most immigrants focus on making sure their children have a better life they had; those people show the theory of utilitarianism. "Utilitarianism argues that, given a set of choices, the act we should choose is that which produces the best results for the greatest number affected by that choice" (Mosser, 1.6). These immigrants are choosing the choice that would be best for their children who can have a better life in America. According to New York Times author Julia Preston there are about "11.7 million immigrants living in the United States illegally..."(Number of Illegal Immigrants, Para 1), with all these immigrants living in the United States illegally does the leader of our country have the right to send back...

...Jackson Monday 6-9 April 27, 2010 Illegal immigrants should not be deported Path to citizenship or deportation? First and foremost, I want to make it perfectly clear, that I am not voting for or in agreement with free citizenship to all the illegal immigrants that are currently in this country. This is a subject I have put much thought into. I believe there should be a path to citizenship for those who have minor kids who are U.S. born citizens; those who are working, are law abiding and who have been here for at least six years. However, there should be no free rides, no free medical assistance, welfare, and housing or bi-lingual education at the schools. When parents are deported, their U.S.-born children have two 'choices' -- leave with their parents or stay in foster care to continue getting their education. If the kids are deported, they will have to start over in a country with a new language, fewer resources and an uncertain future. Deportation destroys families and leaves U.S. citizen children without parents. Over one in ten families are mixed status: at least one parent is a non-citizen, and one child a citizen. We now have a vehicle to help protect our U.S. citizen children from the devastating effects of deportation: The Child Citizen Protection Act... which allows an immigration judge to consider the best interest of U.S. citizen children before deporting their parents. These immigrants do jobs that Americans do not want to do. They are...
