happen?“
“There were 12.1 million immigrants living in the country illegally as of January
2014, according to the most recent estimate from the Department of Homeland
Security. The estimates from two independent groups are similar: The Pew
Research Center estimates the number at 11.1 million in 2014, and the Center
for Migration Studies says there were 11 million people in 2015 living in the U.S.
illegally (see Table 1 in the full report). That would be about 3.5 percent to 3.8
percent of the total U.S. population in 2014.” –

17. Do you agree with the expansion of expedited removal powers?
• Created in 1996, expedited removal is a process by which low-level immigration officers can
quickly deport certain noncitizens who are undocumented or have committed fraud or
misrepresentation (no trial given).
• Since 2004, immigration officials have used expedited removal to deport individuals who
arrive at our border, as well as individuals who entered without authorization if they are
apprehended within two weeks of arrival and within 100 miles of the Canadian or
Mexican border.
• On January 25, 2017, President Trump issued an executive order which directed the
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to dramatically expand the use of “expedited
removal” to its full statutory extent.
• In July 22, 2019, the Department of Homeland Security announced that it would carry out
the full expansion. As of July 23, 2019, expedited removal may be applied to individuals
who are undocumented, or who have committed fraud or misrepresentation, and who are
encountered within the entire United States and who have not been physically present in
the United States for two years prior to apprehension.

18. Should the United States end “birthright citizenship”?

19. 14th Amendment
All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the
jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein
they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the
privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State
deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor
deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

23. PEW RESEARCH
IMMIGRANTS
By a wide margin, the U.S. has more
immigrants than any other country in
the world. As of 2015, the United
Nations estimates that 46.6 million
people living in the United States were
not born there. This means that about
one-in-five international migrants (19%)
live in the US. The U.S. immigrant
population is nearly four times that of
the world’s next largest immigrant
destination – Germany, with about 12
million immigrants.

24. 2016 –
Migration
Policy Institute
In 2016, 1.49 million foreign-born individuals moved to the United
States, a 7 percent increase from the 1.38 million coming in 2015
India – 175,000
China/Hong Kong - 160,200
Mexico – 150,400
Cuba – 54,700
Philippines – 46, 600
Canada – 38,400

25. PEW RESEARCH - EMIGRANTS
“The U.S. has a lower number of emigrants – those who have
left – than 19 other countries, including many with much
smaller populations. More than 3 million people who were
born in the U.S. now live in other countries, compared with
nearly 16 million Indians who are emigrants. About 12 million
Mexican-born people live outside of Mexico, mostly in the U.S.
Even less-populated countries like Syria (5 million) and Poland
(4.4 million) have larger emigrant populations. As a share of
the population in 2015, around 1% of Americans born in the
United States lived outside of the United States. This is a
considerably smaller share than that of other migrant
destinations like the UK (8%), Germany (5%) or Canada (4%).”

27. Asylum (20-25%) = Law
Credible Fear Screening
• Individuals who are placed in expedited removal proceedings and who tell a
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) official that they fear persecution,
torture, or returning to their country or that they wish to apply for asylum
should be referred for a credible fear screening interview conducted by an
asylum officer. If the asylum officer determines that the asylum seeker has a
credible fear of persecution or torture, it means that the person has proven
that he or she has a “significant possibility” of establishing eligibility for
asylum or other protection under the Convention Against Torture. The
individual will then be referred to immigration court to proceed with the
defensive asylum application process.

29. What does the Bible say?

30. Exodus 22:21 - “You shall not wrong a
sojourner or oppress him, for you were
sojourners in the land of Egypt (ESV).”
Deuteronomy 10:19 – “Love the sojourner,
therefore, for you were sojourners in the land
of Egypt (ESV).”

31. Including Foreigners – Exodus 12

32. Romans 13
• Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has
established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, whoever rebels
against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring
judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong.
Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be
commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid,
for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring
punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because
of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience. 6 This is also why you pay taxes, for the
authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. 7 Give to everyone what you owe
them: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.
8 Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves
others has fulfilled the law. 9 The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not
murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,”[a] and whatever other command there may be,
are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no harm to a
neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

34. In Many Cases, Deporting Illegal Immigrants is Necessary
PRINCIPLE – GOVERNMENTS ARE CALLED TO DO WHAT IS BEST FOR THEIR
CITIZENS
- Just – Enforcement of law keeps the American house in order and helps those
who actually need asylum
- Necessary – The government is primarily responsible to do what is best for
American citizens (sphere care), not the world. Granting amnesty or permits
incentivizes illegal immigration.
