Immigration is one of the most pressing issues facing the United States (US) today. It mainly involves the issue of Hispanics from Latin America, specifically Mexico and Central America entering the US. The entry of immigrants has always been a part of “American” society; it has been going on since the US was first discovered. There have been similar situations to that of Mexican immigration in the past, including the immigration of Japanese and Chinese migrant workers which took place before it was completely banned by the US government due to the number of immigrants increasing so rapidly1. The situation for undocumented immigrants coming in from the south was different,…
The following paper discusses how economic and political power influences immigration and policy decisions. Immigration is a strongly debated topic that is difficult to simplify as it multi-faceted and provokes strong emotional positions. The research focuses on the impact of Mexican immigration into the United States because of the magnitude and growth of Mexican immigration compared to any other countries. Over the past five decades, the single largest origin group of Latin American immigrants in the United States has been from Mexico (Stoney & Batalova 2013). This alone fact separates the topic of Mexican immigration into its own categories of cultural, social, and economic impacts.…
Immigrants continue to face discrimination when they seek for employment, education, loans and when they want to own property. Discrimination of immigrants in the US is still rife because most of the “white” American citizens continue having prejudices against the other races. Discrimination and racial attacks is mainly directly towards the Latin Americans, African Americans and Muslims. The most unfortunate thing is that whenever United States faces problems, the immigrants are usually used as a…
Immigration has affected American domestic policy in so many ways. To start off back when our ancestors were alive it was an ‘open immigration system’, pretty much anyone was allowed into the United States, but nowadays to be able to come into the US you need to do so much more. You need all your information in check and you still might not even get accepted to come over, it all depends on the legal system, there are waivers for some of the laws that need to be met, though “All Law” has an article on “Who can't get into the United States”. They give some information on what waivers there are, such as if you have a physical or mental disorder, if you have multiple criminal convictions, there is even a waiver for people who fail to get all the vaccines recommended by the government, however even though they will waiver these people, they won't let the people who are drug addicts or have drug trafficking records as well as anyone who seems to depend on public health or welfare in the near future if brung into the US.…
“Immigration Restrictions : An Overview” is an article by Micah Issitt and Andrew Walter which gives a lot of information about immigration today in the USA.If Jewish refugees from the Holocaust were to arrive in America in 2016 they would be let in and be treated well. When the authors wrote about how some immigration rules were changing, (Micah and Walter, Immigration Restrictions : An Overview) “United States maintains one of the most open immigration policies in the world.” This quote shows that the United States is a very open country and is easier to get into. They will be treated well because the immigration laws are so open. So the Holocaust refugees will be able to enter the freedomland. The quote supports my answer because it says…
Immigration Policies Lots of people cross the borders illegally just to find a job, better opportunities, or they don´t like their own country because of the costs or lack of options to do with their life. Immigration policies should be payed attention to more considered to be changed for our government so it keeps people from doing things illegally.

Immigration policy could be a foreign and a domestic policy concern because immigration policies have the same decisions to make as foreign and domestic policies. For example, domestic policy people have to make decisions related to issues within the nation's borders and the people who are involved in making the immigration policy also have to make decisions about the border. The concern is that these policies are very similar so they both have to make the same decision on these issues. Immigration policy interacts with economic policy because immigration causes economic growth.…
Per the Immigration policy, regarding the deportation this issue was not systematically address at the time the policy was implemented. Neither was humanity considered when implementing this policy. Immigrates migrated from their country to the United States of America so they could provide a more stable environment for their family. The immigrants have helped form America into the great melting pot. The federal government allowed the migration of immigrates into our country for many years, so that our country could increase in population. Per the United States Center for Immigration, our country has the most open immigration policy in the world. After the Civil War, all the states started to implement the Immigration policies. That…
All the immigrants that came made a strong local presence, even though they were poor. Each nationality had their own little place or town. That is why a lot of cities now have china towns and other immigrated towns. Most immigrants lived in tight apartments or houses, most apartments were filled with many families. One apartment held the same nationality of immigrants, an apartment that was designed for 3-4 people a group or 10 or more could’ve been there. According to document 1 (Chinese Immigrant lee chew Denounces Prejudice in America, 1882 .pg 72) a Chinese boy goes from china to San Francisco and is treated unfairly. He gets a job but is shunned upon. He gets $3.50 which he saves $3 per week. They were not allowed to bring their wives in to America and marrying an American is an outcry. Other immigrants are allowed to citizens if they pass Chinese men aren’t allowed to be, according to him all the other immigrants are below his nationality. But the Chinese are fit to become citizens if they were allowed to be.…
Imagine a person that wanted to get out of a place where they know that they have no future in. That person aims to go to a place where their dreams will be accomplished and a place where they know they will have a better future but when the person gets there, that is all crushed. That person finds out that people treat them differently based off of where they come from. The person doesn’t get the same rights as everyone else does because they are immigrants.

Are they really the “aliens” or is it us? Immigration restriction should not be supported because it brings in millions of people and money to America every year. Immigration is the start to how the United States came to be what it is today. It takes away from people's possible freedom and their futures as American citizens.…
Immigration is the action of coming to live permanently in a foreign country. The Immigration Policy is a long and lengthy process in The United States. It provides a controversial debate, for some people want it and some do not. Others have a problem with the Immigration Policy itself, anywhere from the rules and regulations to the enforcement of it. I don’t agree with the United States’ Immigration Policy because of the border security, job displacement, and the pathway to citizenship.…
Immigration in the United States is not a new phenomenon. Ever since the 1680s – also known as the colonial era – North America’s history has been marked by several waves of immigration from all over the world. All motivated by cultural, religious, economic, and political push and pull factors, newcomers set foot on American soil. Although the public opinion concerning immigration may have shifted throughout history, the immigrants have formed the American society. After the terrorist attacks of 9/11, many American citizens demanded more severe border controls in order to avoid the influx of more illegal immigrants and also to reduce the number of legal newcomers whereupon George Washington Bush signed the USA Patriot Act in October 2001 that was intended to raise higher surveillance to protect the country from new terrorists.…
