Since Trump was elected to be the President of United States of America, he has been terrorizing immigrants here in the U.S. He tried many ways to eliminate and reduce the number of immigrants in the U.S. as much as possible. I recently discovered that President Trump is trying to end DACA plan. DACA or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals was initiated by Obama to helps undocumented immigrants traveling with children and allows their kids to stay in the United State to study, work, and they may obtain legal identifications. Now, President Trump decided to end DACA. I am against everything Trump does since he became President, However, his decision to end DACA program has been difficult for me to accept. My great grandfather was an immigrant; …show more content…
Migrated from one country to another was probably the hardest challenge for many people, leaving family behind and most importantly who they are. I’ve heard many stories about immigrant families who are trying to make their American dream come true. Trump was also an immigrant, his parents migrated from German to the United State. I feel like he should’ve known how it feels to be an immigrant. I feel like all American residents and citizens are immigrants, However, many of American still having trouble accepting the fact that we all immigrant. I came to realize about this matter when my grandfather and I were having our weekly conversation in his backyard. I remembered vividly because it was raining heavily that day and since we both like the rains, we decided to stay out. My grandfather told me the time when he and his parents emigrated from Africa in 1940, He was just five years old. He explained that he can’t remember how he gets into the states but he said it wasn’t pleasant. I think he remembered what happened but he just trying to spare my feeling. After my grandfather told me about how he migrated to the States, he continued his story by telling me when he and his parents finally made it to the states he and his parents were unable to find a place to stay, however, my great grandfather has a friend in the states that help him and his family to stay with him until my great grandfather find a stable job. It took my great grandfather months to find a job in the US due to his immigrant status and his education level, but when he finally gets a job as an office clerk. After three months being an office clerk, my great grandfather eventually can afford to rent a one-bedroom apartment. My grandfather told me how irritating he was that he has to sleep on the couch for almost four years because his
Tay Stuart Mr. Chaouni English 9 Honors 19 January 2018 Secure the Wishes of Fulfillment, Secure the Ones Who Desire About 800,000 immigrants are part of the Deferred Action For Childhood Arrivals (DACA) plan. DACA is a plan established in 2012 by former President Barack Obama.
The new generation of children in our country are the dreamers and we must protect them. Our current President Donald Trump. As of recently our President's administration, as our country's leaders had decided to end DACA. This decision puts all of the dreamers at risk of deportation.
When I was six years old, living in Ethiopia, my dad won an American green card visa lottery among 53,000 people. Although it was exciting news, family members were discouraged because my dad could not afford the visa processing and traveling expense. However, he found a sponsor in Seattle, which allowed him to settle in America. As soon as he found a good house and a stable job, he started the process for me and my family. Multiple errors and obstacles delayed our processing for five years.
One of the toughest adjustments, having been born to Mexican parents, is migrating to an unknown country where traditions and languages differ from one 's own. Though many pursue an education and strive for a better life, the purpose behind an immigrant, like myself, differs from the typical American. Immigrants strive for a life that was once impossible, going to school is not only to attain an education, but to better prove that we can also become successful regardless of our traditions and skin color. I lived in a country for over fifteen years, fearing deportation, not only losing a home, but potentially saying goodbye to a bright future. Although many feel empathy for Mexican-Americans, it is undeniably difficult to truly comprehend the immense trauma children and even adults undergo upon experiencing racism and prejudice.
Dear President of the United States Donald J. Trump, Illegal immigrants are wanting to have a better life in America, but our President, Donald Trump, is stopping them from doing so. Those individuals are now being taken away from this wish of a better life, deported back to their countries. People with this much power shouldn’t use that power to ruin lives, instead, they should use it to make all illegal immigrants feel safe and live without any worry of having to start over. By deportation being allowed, it is breaking up families and ruining the chance of illegal immigrants to achieve their American Dream.
But this is just a way a president is trying to help out his country, there are many that say he is going to be a bad president for the way that he speaks. But his words don´t show his actions. Donald Trump is only trying to help get back his country and he is trying to do that by getting his citizens their jobs back. All of the Latino´s that come into the United States take jobs that are meant for the U.S citizens. Leaving is also no guarantee as much as we throw them out they will come back trying to make a living and every time that we send them they don't stop and just come back.
With a lack of compassion for D.A.C.A (Deferred Acton for Childhood Arrivals) recipients, thousands could be deported and displaced leaving families broken and barred with emotional pain. Being that this is a country built with immigrants, this is not acceptable. Amongst
The year now is 2020, no undocumented immigrants just only US citizens. The economy has gone down to China, and Donald Trump the 45th and current president is stressed. Why? 2018, the year of mass deportation of immigrants leaving the US. “Make America great again!” he said, but the exact opposite thing happened.
Ten years ago, I immigrated to the United States and ever since I have been an undocumented immigrant. Due to my legal status in the United States, I felt like I was restricted from certain situations and possessions and would never be able to succeed. I was not living the normal life of a seven-year-old. Instead, I had to learn to cope and adapt to a whole new culture. Even though the drastic change at such a young age was a challenge, it has shaped who I am today.
Firoozeh writes about her life as an Iranian immigrant to America. Her family is treated with kindness by neighbors when they come to live in America and get lost on their way home from school: “…the woman and her daughter walked us all the way to our front porch and even helped my mother unlock the unfamiliar door,” (Dumas, 7). Firoozeh and her mother are not discriminated against because they are immigrants who don’t speak English, the Americans help them despite their differences. Had the neighbors not been helpful and patient, Firoozeh’s journey home would have been somewhat traumatic and daunting. While this a rather specific isolated example, it can serve as an analogy for all immigrants’ experience.
Donahue says she doesn’t mind immigrants but she wants them to enter the country the right way. Alberto said her main concern, is that if DACA is taken out before Washington has a permanent solution than those in the program
Despite President Trump’s heartfelt statement, his actions are the oppsite of his words. DACA enables young people to pursue their passions and dreams and to develop their skills and talents without fear of being ripped from all they know. We would want the best for any child, allowing them to become full-fledged contributors to our society. I believe that without DACA, there wouldn’t be any opportunities for the dreamers to continue any further for our right to succeed and what’s best for our future. As we know, immigrants are known as “Dreamers” who come to this country illegally.
As illustrated in Joseph Keppler’s political cartoon, ‘Looking Backward,’ published in P.U.C.K. magazine in January 11, 1893. The cartoon depicts four wealthy men denying entry to a newly arrived immigrant. In addition to this, shadows of ancestral immigrants appear behind the four men as each are native-born but are, themselves, descendants of former immigrants. This one political cartoon adds commentary on the hypocrisy of second-generation Americans and paradox that is found when examining the patterns of immigration to America since the first wave of immigrants arrived. The Irish who arrived during the post-famine period (1855-1921), were no different than any other ethnic group coming to America in the way that they were treated once they arrived.
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.
“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.
