Illegal immigration enforcement costs the state of Arizona an estimated $1.3 billion per year, according to a 2004 study. Community leaders argue that enforcement results in racial profiling and a waste of taxpayer money. Theoretical frameworks for analyzing illegal immigration as a social problem include Karl Marx's human labor-power theory, Adam Smith's division of labor theory, and Howard Becker's labeling theory. Current economic conditions have magnified the costs and impacts of illegal immigration enforcement compared to a decade ago. Enforcement has also caused social problems like decreased community trust and lack of revenue from jobs typically filled by undocumented immigrants.

PO 397 Intro Political Machines
1) The document discusses the rise of political machines in American cities in the late 19th century, such as Tammany Hall in New York City. Tammany Hall provided services to immigrant communities and helped them navigate American society in exchange for political support.
2) Political machines gained power through patronage jobs, contracts, and alliances with local newspapers and businesses. However, they also engaged in widespread corruption like kickbacks. Tammany Hall leaders like William Tweed rose to high levels of power and influence through the machine.
3) Reform movements in the early 20th century like the Progressives worked to curb the excesses of political machines and bosses by exposing corruption and pushing for reforms like women's suffrage and
Migrants Mexusa
This document discusses Mexican migration to the United States, providing data and analyzing the consequences. It notes that restrictive US immigration policies backfired and instead of reducing the flow of Mexican migrants, they doubled it. As a result of these policies, Mexican immigration transformed from temporary work to permanent family settlement in the US. By 2008, there were an estimated 7 million undocumented and 12 million foreign-born Mexicans living in the US. The document examines several social and economic impacts of this large Mexican population in the US.
Political Machines
This document summarizes key political, economic, and social developments in the United States from the late 18th century to the early 20th century. It discusses the rise of political machines like Tammany Hall in response to immigration and industrialization. New inventions like the cotton gin and development of railroads transformed the economy and sparked labor conflicts. Reform movements like Progressivism sought to curb corruption and regulate large businesses in the Gilded Age.
Progressive Era Notes
The Progressive Movement occurred between 1890-1920 in response to social, economic, political, and environmental problems caused by the rapid industrialization of American cities. Progressives aimed to address issues like poverty, poor working conditions, and the unchecked power of large corporations. They worked to raise awareness of these issues and achieve reforms through journalists, activists, politicians and others. Some of their successes included regulations on child labor, women's suffrage, and the advancement of racial equality.
Causes of the progressive era
The document summarizes some of the key causes and results of the Progressive Era in the United States. Urbanization increased due to immigration from Eastern Europe and industrialization creating jobs in cities. This led to overcrowded tenement housing with poor conditions and a lack of government response, enabling political machines to gain power. Industrialization also resulted in long work days, low pay, child labor, and unsafe conditions, fueling the rise of labor unions and strikes against monopolistic big businesses that dominated industries like steel, railroads, and oil through practices like vertical and horizontal integration. Politicians eventually began cracking down on these issues.

The Prison Industrial Complex (PIC) refers to the system of surveillance, policing and imprisonment that has grown through mass incarceration and sustains itself by promoting stereotypes through "tough on crime" legislation. The PIC benefits those with racial and economic privilege while disproportionately targeting and incarcerating people of color. It is a term coined by activist Angela Davis to describe how government and private industry profit from and perpetuate incarceration as a solution to social and political issues.

This is a brief overview of some of the concerns expressed in the labour movement, by NGOs and other progressive organizations about the present model of corporate (or neoliberal) globalization.
Chertow Lecture #4
1. While economic growth has historically enabled societies to improve lives, national policy choices ultimately determine growth. China's success was due to government efforts to restructure and diversify their economy.
2. As China's manufacturing powerhouse faces rising costs, it must move up the value chain, improve quality, and focus on domestic consumption and developing its own brands.
3. China's environmental pollution has global impacts, and its continued development depends on balancing growth with legal, social and environmental sustainability.
Human trafficking bill ppt
Human trafficking involves the sale and exploitation of human beings for forced labor or sex trafficking. There are two main types - labor trafficking and sex trafficking. Countries with large numbers of human trafficking include Albania, Belarus, Bulgaria, China, Lithuania, Nigeria, Moldova, Romania, Russia, Thailand, Ukraine, Belgium, Germany, Greece, Israel, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Turkey, and the United States. Causes include poverty, culture, illegal immigration, corrupt governments, lack of victim testimony, and unawareness. Victims suffer long-term physical and psychological trauma. Solutions proposed include increasing awareness, holding companies accountable, prosecuting traffickers, and imposing fines on convicted companies.
Legacy of the Progressive
The Progressive Era lasted from the 1890s to the 1920s and was characterized by political reforms and social activism across the United States aimed at combating corruption and other issues. Key events of the era included increased business regulation to promote fair treatment of workers and consumers, the conservation movement to protect natural resources from exploitation, the rise of professional standards and licensing, and prohibition to address social problems linked to alcohol. Reformers also worked to achieve greater democracy by fighting corruption and intimidation in government.

Political parties
The Republican Party emerged in 1854 in opposition to the Kansas-Nebraska Act and its repeal of the Missouri Compromise. It enlisted former Whigs and Free-Soil Democrats to form majorities in Northern states. The party was led by Abraham Lincoln and guided the Union to victory in the Civil War, abolishing slavery. It dominated national politics until 1932, emphasizing expansive foreign policy under presidents like McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt. The party expanded in the South after the 1960s due to support from socially conservative white voters.

The webinar aimed to introduce a EU approach to financial investigations related to illegal immigration and demonstrate successful operations. It featured presentations from Jennifer MacLeod of Europol on the role of Europol in financial investigations and asset recovery related to facilitation of illegal immigration. It also included a case study on related financial investigations from Helen Calvert, an accredited UK financial investigator. The webinar was organized by the European Police College.
We are all immigrants
"We Are All Immigrants" is a presentation that speaks to the urgent need to align our immigration policy with our job-creation goals. We can create jobs in America --- lots of them---- by flicking the switch and welcoming the job-creators from abroad. Compared to American-born, Immigrants are twice as likely to start a business, twice as likely to invent a new product, more likely have an advanced degree, and more likely to have the linguistic, cultural, and networking skill-set to sell U.S. products and services abroad. Immigrants are America's competitive advantage. It's time we stopped treating them like dirt. I've been talking about this for over 10 years! hoping that someone would listen.... and help save my hometown (Cleveland) and country! I'm an immigration lawyer ---- I know how broken the system is --- and how to FIX IT! I co-wrote a book, "Immigrant, Inc." to tell these stories. I co-wrote the immigration policy for the 30 chambers of commerce from Chicago to Pittsburgh. Awareness is increasing, through programs such as Global Michigan, Global Detroit, Global Cleveland, Global Pittsburgh, and others. NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg is one of the biggest champions of the notion that smart immigration reform can CREATE jobs in America and help revitalize its cities.
Zach Aldrich-Illegal Immigration
The document discusses illegal immigration to the United States. It explores ways that border patrol tries to detect illegal immigrants using heat sensors and security cameras, though this equipment costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. Amnesty programs are a temporary solution that allow illegal immigrants to gain citizenship if they come out of hiding and pay fines to study English and pay back taxes. However, the outcome of amnesty plans remains unclear as many illegal immigrants believe them to be scams. A key reason illegal immigrants cross the border is to support their families and have children in U.S. hospitals to gain citizenship.
Illegal Immigration
This document discusses illegal immigration from Mexico to the United States. It outlines the positions of different groups on how to address the estimated 12 million undocumented immigrants currently living in the US, including proposals to provide legal status and a path to citizenship in exchange for fines and border security measures. The document also describes a 2007 march in Chicago advocating for immigrant rights and family reunification. Overall, it examines debates around illegal immigration and various approaches to reforming immigration policy.
4 Illegal Immigration
The document discusses illegal immigration between Mexico and the United States, and between Eastern Europe and the United Kingdom. It outlines push factors that drive immigration like low wages and lack of opportunities, and pull factors that attract immigrants like job prospects and higher living standards in the destination countries. It also describes the typical profiles of illegal immigrants, routes they take, public attitudes, and changes over time, such as fewer Mexican immigrants to the US as Mexico's economy develops.

Illegal immigration power point
This document discusses illegal immigration and birthright citizenship in the United States. It begins by defining illegal immigrants and noting that illegal children represent 5.4% of all US children. It then discusses how and why illegal immigrants cross the US-Mexico border, often paying smugglers and risking dangerous journeys. Many initially came for work but some women now come to give birth with the intention of their children receiving birthright citizenship. The document explores arguments for and against birthright citizenship for children of illegal immigrants, and whether the 14th Amendment should be revised. It provides statistics on jobs related to immigration enforcement and inspection.

Illegal Immigration Essay
This document discusses illegal immigration and the treatment of illegal immigrants in the workplace. It notes that while there are approximately 8 million unauthorized immigrants in the US workforce, they often face abusive working conditions due to language barriers, isolation, and being targeted for their race and gender. Despite laws against harassment and discrimination, illegal immigrants regularly experience physical and verbal abuse at work. Employers are also able to exploit these workers and deny their legal rights and remedies by asserting that claims are invalid due to their immigration status. Efforts are needed to protect the basic rights of illegal immigrants and establish responsibilities for companies employing unauthorized workers.
Argumentative Essay About Immigration
This argumentative essay discusses immigration policy in the United States. It argues that President Trump's decision to repeal DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) is unconstitutional because it violates the 14th Amendment and concepts of citizenship. The 14th Amendment defines that everyone within U.S. borders is protected, regardless of legal status. While some argue that DACA overstepped presidential powers, revoking it violates the rights of Dreamers who have lived in the U.S. most of their lives. The essay maintains that the U.S. was founded by immigrants and has long welcomed people from diverse backgrounds, so restricting protections for undocumented people goes against American principles.
M.A. Labor Studies thesis: US Immigration Law, The Evolution of Ethnic Econom...
This document summarizes how changes in US immigration law influenced the development of ethnic economies and immigrant communities. It discusses two key laws: the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, which ended preferences for European immigrants and increased Asian immigration, contributing to the growth of communities like Chinatown; and the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, which granted amnesty to undocumented immigrants, reinforcing existing migration networks of Mexican immigrants. The document also provides historical context on 19th and early 20th century immigration policies that restricted Asian immigration, and how public opinion shifted after World War 2, leading to the passage of the 1965 Immigration Act.
US Immigration Policy
This document discusses US immigration policy and its impact on human dignity. It argues that current policy prerequisites like education and work experience requirements disadvantage the poor and disenfranchised from other countries in the same way that Jim Crow laws disenfranchised blacks. While some argue for more restrictive policies, the document disagrees and notes that legal immigrants contribute greatly despite facing high fees, racism, and lack of rights protections once in the US.

Background Information
Legal and illegal immigration into the United States is discussed in your textbook. Advocates of liberal immigration argue that both legal and illegal immigrants are needed to perform difficult and low paying jobs that most citizens won't take. Advocates also sympathize with immigrants because many of them are fleeing poverty and tyranny in their homelands. Immigrants pay taxes, help to support the US social security system, and contribute to American society.
Opponents of immigration include individuals that want to ban or significantly reduce all immigration, and those that simply want more stringent efforts to end illegal immigration. Opponents argue that current immigration policies and border patrol methods are too lenient and allow terrorists to infiltrate into the US.

Immigration Policy
Economic Dynamics and Changes in Attitudes
Toward Undocumented Mexican Immigrants
in Arizona
Priscila Diaz,∗ Delia S. Saenz, and Virginia S.Y. Kwan
Arizona State University
Mexican immigration to the United States comprises an important social issue
in contemporary public policy debate, particularly given the recent passage of
Arizona’s Senate Bill 1070 (SB 1070). The current study investigated how indi-
viduals’ sentiments toward undocumented Mexican immigrants shifted between
2006 and 2009 in Arizona, and also examined economic concomitants to these
shifts. Participants included 3,195 culturally diverse students attending a state
university in Arizona. They reported their attitudes toward undocumented Mex-
ican immigrants regarding housing, employment, values, social welfare, citizen-
ship, health care, and education issues. Results show less-positive attitudes as
each year progressed among European and Latino Americans, as well as other
ethnic minorities. Further, anti-undocumented immigrant sentiment increased as
unemployment increased and gross domestic product real growth rate decreased.
Ethnic differences emerged in the relative negativity toward undocumented immi-
grants such that European Americans were less positive towards undocumented
