The Role Of Illegal Immigrants In Sanctuary Cities

In response, Congress passed H.R. 3009, the Enforce the Law for Sanctuary Cities Act, introduced by Congressman Duncan Hunter (R-CA). As an original cosponsor, I voted in favor of H.R. 3009. The bill would block certain federal funds to jurisdictions that

As President, my main goal would be to eliminate any distrust or social and legal pressure building between local authorities and illegal immigrants in sanctuary cities. I would do this because everyone living in the United States of America needs to feel safe; In my plan, all families who entered the United States in an illegal fashion would be assigned a social worker to help walk them through a more simplified, smooth version of the Pathway to Citizenship. Behind the social worker would be a small party of two workers; one whose profession would be to administer background checks to all the adults in the group of illegal immigrants, and one whose job would be to educate the adults in the ways of the American government and teach all of them immigrants. If for any reason one of the adults in the group was not upholding their part of the deal (not paying their taxes, not trying to learn English, not trying to learn about the American government system, failing the citizenship test on English and American government) then the adult at blame would be sent back to his or her own country, along with his or her spouse and children. However, if any one of the children is 18 years of age or older, and have been fulfilling their duties in order to become a citizen, they would be given the opportunity to stay on their

Should the United States change its Immigration Policy? This is the subject of todays debate. Resolved, that the united states should significantly change its immagration policy. In order to accuratly arue this subject we must first define our terms. Significantky; to be important or consequential.

According to a study released last year by the Pew Hispanic Center, as of 2008, 11.9 million illegal immigrants lived in the United States, more than triple the 3.5 million who lived in the country in 1990 (Izumi). Immigration throughout the years has become a major issue in the U.S because of too many immigrants entering the country year after year. The U.S has come to a point whether they should deport the immigrants back to their country. Believe it or not, these immigrants are a big contribution to the U.S. If it wasn’t for them, the U.S economy wouldn’t be where it stands now.

Understanding various sides to California’s Sanctuary State Law (Wendi) California Sanctuary State Law The California Sanctuary State Law has complicated the concept of sanctuary cities in California. This law limits cooperation between local officials and federal immigration enforcement, especially in deporting undocumented immigrants who face no criminal charges.

Dreamers had no choice when they were brought to the U.S. as children; they don’t deserve to be deported. Nevertheless, it is up to Congress to protect Dreamers, and whether or not they will be able to pass a bill is

The population is growing fast and massive immigration is to blame. Not only is this a problem, but the economy of the United States is hurting too. Many people become unemployed and others are hit hard by paying high tax. The environment is also being harmed, due to the overpopulation factor. Immigration can become a serious problem without stricter laws.

Second, if we keep the illegal immigrants in the US, more illegal immigrants would want to come here. They have heard of many illegal immigrants that have found jobs to bring them out of poverty, and they want to do the same for their family. Parents are now sending their children over here in a desperate attempt to bring themselves over, only to find that their children are getting sent back. It is kind of like a domino once one person gets a good job, then more people hear about it. They all want to come over, and if we do not deport them now, we may never be able to fully get rid of them.

Not only do immigrants cost America financially, but they also need housing, education, healthcare, and jobs which all have an individual impact from immigrants. Many of these issues are covered using tax payer dollars and then the overwhelming population due to this growth in immigrants will have to be addressed in each individual area or city. Some of these issues are fire stations and police officers to accommodate the larger populations, hiring enough teachers to educate the growing rate of children enrolled in the public schools, or providing welfare benefits such as food stamps or Medicaid to immigrants who are mostly of low-income

“Undocumented immigrants contribute significantly to state and local taxes, collectively paying an estimated $11.64 billion a year’’(qtd. in “Is Illegal Immigration An Economic Burden To America?”). The U.S. would lose billions of dollars in taxes if they were to be deported. Not only do they pay their taxes, but they also help raise GDP.(“10 Critical Pros And Cons Of Illegal Immigration” ). The number of immigrants that do not pay their taxes is too limited for it to be considered a burden to our economy.

For decades, immigration has been a problem for the United States. Due to the people traveling from their native lands to the United States seeking a better life for themselves, and more primarily for the family that has come with them. Immigration is the action of settling into a country of which one is not native. Despite the many legal immigrants not every immigrant enters the country with legal documents and most of these illegal immigrants are poor and uneducated. Some undocumented immigrants commit crimes such as drug smuggling, or terrorism.

The United States of America, being a country founded by immigrants, is known all over the world as the land of great opportunities. People from all walks of life travelled across the globe, taking a chance to find a better life for them and their family. Over the years, the population of immigrants has grown immensely, resulting in the currently controversial issue of illegal immigration. Illegal immigrants are the people who have overstayed the time granted on their US, visa or those who have broken the federal law by crossing the border illegally. Matt O’Brien stated in his article “The government thinks that 10.8 million illegal immigrants lived in the country in January 2009, down from a peak of nearly 12 million in 2007.”(Para, 2) While some argue that illegal immigrants burden the United States of America and its economy, others believe that they have become essential and are an important part of the US, economy.

Immigration has always been a crucial topic in the United States government. Especially when it comes to giving amnesty and passing an immigration reform to 11 million immigrants, that live in the country. Many citizens believe that immigrants are detrimental to the well-being of the United States and do not agree with the passage of an immigration reform. One reason is that many believe immigrants take away the jobs of American citizens. Other reasons are that immigrants bring crime to the country and affect the economy.

“Illegal immigration continues to be a major problem in the United States. We have people wanting to come here legally and we should not be rewarding people who have come here illegally,” said John Barrasso. The United States Government should not allow immigrants into America because they are having negative effects on our country. Some negative effects are citizens competing with illegals for jobs, immigrants expecting favors, and Americans not getting to work hard for their money.

Some believe that the best option is deportation and completely getting rid of illegal immigrants while other state that illegal immigrants should be granted amnesty and should be allowed to live a normal life whatsoever. Although it is a matter of opinion, there is quite a bit of racism in believing that these immigrants should not be allowed to live a proper life, after all, they are humans like everybody else. Nevertheless, it is very true that illegal immigration brings along with it quite a few disadvantages. These include disease, unemployment, national instability, drain on social services, crime and much more. If governments decide to introduce immigration amnesty, unemployment increases since these illegal immigrants will need to find a job to have enough money so as to cope with the living of an undoubtedly richer country than the nation they abandoned.
