Conclusion about Immigration reform

What I learned

Introduction

Do you know that the number of illegal immigrants in the United States was estimated at 11.5 million in 2011 and now there are approximately 6.8 million more?

Obama believes we must fix the dysfunctional immigration bureaucracy and increase the number of legal immigrants to keep families together and meet the demand for jobs that employers cannot fill. For that reason he is proposing this Immigration Reform.

The reasons I chose this topic is because there are a lot of illegal immigrants that came to this country because in their counties do not exist a political decision that make their stay on their countries living a decent life that’s why they make them economic refugees.

I know like everyone that most immigrants in the United States become immigrant searching a better life for themselves and their families, because here you can find a better future and the percentage of opportunities are higher. And in the last years immigrants are who have increased the United States economy. For that why immigrants cant be citizen more easily.

I expect to learn at the end of this project what incentive and reasons, which make Obama, wants this Immigration Reform. And under what conditions would be made this reform because there are many people involved in this event.

    This week, Brandeis Immigration Education Initiative (BIEI), has come out with an event titled, “The Immigrant Experience at Brandeis,” which will consist of learning more about the different and unique immigrant experiences in the U.S. They organized a campaign that would display different portraits and original stories of the diverse students at Brandeis—very much à la Humans of New York (HONY). The event took place at SCC on February 4th, 2016, and it centered in proving that the immigrant experience is not one sole narrative as many would think. In fact, the photo installation tried to proved that there are immigrants in the U.S. from distinct countries, races, religions, social backgrounds, and personal experiences in one common place:…

    When looking at the reform in general, it is clear that Donald Trump is trying to increase jobs and productivity for American citizens. As many know, Donald Trump is a businessman. As a businessman, he knows how to make profit based on making decisions and persuading people to give him money. His decision when it comes to dealing with illegal immigrants is no different, for by deporting this population of people, more American citizens will be given better opportunities of employment and higher wages thus providing an outlet which may spur an increase in employees who work for his enterprise. The more workers Trump has for his business means more productivity thus leading to an increase in profit. For the reason of personal profit and a decline in the unemployment rate, Donald Trump’s Immigration Reform projects benefits for many Americans including…

    I turn to my first resource the FIU Library website. I found several articles on Opposing Viewpoints; I also found articles on CQ Researchers, as well as in the internet about “The Dream Act”. An article I found on Gale, 2012 Opposing Viewpoints talks about the situation on the act and how big it’s the problem. I read that many of these innocent people can be deported without having any criminal records or having committed any violent act. The President of the United States Barrack Obama based most of his second presidential campaign by targeting Hispanic on immigration issues and promising a new immigration reform. He is in favor of a reform for illegal immigrants and also he is in favor of “The Dream Act” as is state in this article. He understands the importance of getting an education in your early years. It is significant for the president that the congress comes to consent about passing the act. There have been many attempted to passing the act, but all seemed to failed and stuck in the Congress. Every bill must be pass by Congress; nevertheless, president Obama impatiently in June of 2012, use his executive power and stated that the U.S. government would not deport any undocumented immigrants that entered the U.S before they were sixteen. Many States opposed to Obama’s decision and are refusing to provide any assistance to those…

    Presidents Obama’s commonsense immigration reform proposal has four parts. The subject in which caught most of my attention was the way immigrants can earn their citizenship. This proposal provides undocumented immigrants a legal way to earn citizenship. This would allow those hidden in shadows to come out and pay taxes and play by the rules like everyone else. Those living illegally in the U.S. would be responsible for their actions be passing national security and criminal background check, paying taxes and a penalty, also to learn English before earning their citizenship. Which I hope I can be eligible in a couple of years. There is no uncertainty about their ability to become U.S. citizens if criteria met. The proposal will also stop innocent…

    With immigration reform picking up major traction, Obama will likely encourage continued bipartisan action to move towards comprehensive immigration reform. Current proposals by the "Gang of Eight" would bring about tough and fair reform for over 11 million undocumented immigrants to move towards citizenship. In 2007, the Congressional Budget Office rated the plan as generating $48 billion in additional revenue over 10 years, while costing about $23 billion in additional welfare and health care payments.…

    The first step in Immigration reform is to limit the number of visas that we issue to immigrants to about 600,000 which will nearly shrink the current number of about 1.1 million in half. The reason to do this will it forces talented citizens in developing countries to stay in their respective countries develop further hence reducing immigration into the United States. The only people we should admit are people who are seeking asylum and refugee in the US because of the current situation in their countries. This will allow us to admit people who legitimately can greatly improve their life and will allow the people who are qualified in their countries to stay there and improve their country further.…

    Illegal immigrants have always been a problem in the United States for some time now. “In October 2008, the illegal immigrant population stood at 11.9 million according to the Pew Hispanic Center” ("Illegal Immigration Facts & Statistics”). An efficient border patrol in our country would be a good step in the right direction to stop illegal immigration and the effect it has on our country. Illegal immigrants are at fault for such things as smuggling drugs into the country, which increases crime rate. Illegal immigrants also deprive U.S. citizens’ from the lower and middle class of jobs. America will also lose money on taxes and schools lose funds in most public systems because of teaching illegal immigrants. “In 1965, the number of aliens apprehended by the Border Patrol coming across the border was 110,000. Now that number is more than one million annually” ("Illegal Immigration Facts & Statistics”). An effective border patrol not only helps American citizens, but it also keeps many illegal immigrants out of our country.…

    Immigration has been a long standing issue in America and is still one of the most predominant topics in politics today. On November 14, 2012, Hector Becerra published an article in the The New York Times that talks about the belief Latinos are the main source that caused President Barack Obama to be re-elected. Since President Obama has devised a plan, known as the Dream Act, has given the Latino population hope but has also brought some negativity into the past election. Although many feel most are powerless, the fast-growing Latino electorate is expected to double by 2030 (Becerra 2012).…
