Immigration is not a human right, it is not a solution for a problem either, and immigrants who are denied admission into another country cannot claim it is violating their human rights because there are other options rather than emigrating. The article “Justice in Immigration” written by David Miller explains that nations have the ability to decide if they want to help immigrants and if they choose not to, it is not a violation of human rights. The article argues that refugees, people who are trying to get into another country since their human rights are under attacked, should be allowed to migrate, but to become a citizen or to even receive help is completely up to the other states. The next argument is the case…
The immigration system in the U.S. is set up primarily to grant immigration status based on factors such as family reunification, in-demand work skills, and capital investment. The immigration system also covers refugees and asylum seekers, and provides a "lottery" for immigration status to people who have less pressing immigration needs. The procedure for gaining legal immigrant status will depend upon, among other factors, which path you are eligible to pursue based on your employment, education, and family situation.…
The topic of immigration has been and is still today a very highly controversial topic. The secondary source that I researched brings to light many of the views of immigration already mentioned in My Ántonia. The secondary source, “Case Studies: Immigration Control” by BBC supports many of the claims that Willa Cather emphasizes in her book which makes it a strong secondary source. Immigration is not stated nor seen as a bad thing in My Ántonia as it clearly tries to let the world know of the harsh conflicts that immigrants are often faced with. The secondary source and My Ántonia both support the claim that immigration is not detrimental in any way but rather often helps countries in many ways such as maintaining a stable economy. Immigration…
The Greek philosopher Aristotle once said that the law is free from passion. The United States does not enforce laws based on the feelings of others; we enforce them for the better of the people and society. Passion should not dictate our rule; reason and precedent should be the most absolute principles included when determining the laws to safeguard the country. The sovereignty of the United States would diminish if laws were not based on virtuous causes. If the prosperity of the United States could be harmed, why should the citizens of the country not do everything possible to prevent this?…

Even though I have spent some time volunteering at the Salvation Army and at the local food bank, I desire to one day spend more time helping out my community. In particular, I would love to give legal aid to immigrants. Many people view immigrants as criminals, but I do not. Growing up in an immigrant household has allowed to see immigrants for what they truly are. That is, they are the most hardworking people one will ever encounter. No matter if the day is scorching hot or freezing cold, immigrants go out to work each day, determined to get ahead in society. Carrying the same work ethic, I plan to overcome the many challenges I will face in law school. I know that in the end, I will successfully overcome such…
One of the main reasons immigrants came to the United States was because of the industrial growth. This wasn’t the only reason immigrants came to the US. Part of the `reason was because of problems in other countries, such as political unrest in Germany or Anti-Semitism and draft in Russia(Doc.1). As a result of this industrial growth, America grew immensely. For example, one Irish immigrant woman that was interviewed was telling her story about her childhood in Ireland. “My mother kept house and my father had no work but just the bit of land we had, to work at it, and give the cream of the milk to England for everything.” Neither of her parents had jobs so they had a hard time paying rent on their house. There was no place for a bed in their…

During the late 19th century to the early 20th century, the United States experienced an influx of immigrants, largely increasing the diversity of religious and ethnic groups in the country. When Ellis Island opened in 1892 and Angel Island opened in 1910, many people from Europe and Asia, including the Chinese, Catholics, and Jews, were part of the third wave of immigrants to the United States. These immigrants were not always welcome in the United States. They were financially challenged and found it hard to assimilate with others and white Protestants. Although the United States is a very diverse nation today and the poem at the bottom of the Statue of Liberty welcomed them through a “golden door”, immigrants and new groups coming to the…
