Immigration Reform
Personally, I think that it is sad that someone who comes here from a different country
and learns our ways and betters themselves cannot consider America their home for the simple
fact that they are made to leave after a certain point. I think that as long as these people are
bettering themselves and working towards a goal or doing something good with their life, then
they shouldn’t have to leave. I agree with the new immigration reform that is trying to be
passed. I do believe there should be a little change made to it though, for the simple fact that it
clearly will not be passed if it remains the same.
My idea is to keep the reform the same, all except for the fact that they need to prove
themselves. They should have to prove that they are doing something here that they cannot do
back home where they are from and that they are trying to better themselves by working towards
a goal. They should also have to have a clean record and be considered good citizens that will
make society a better place with them in it. I think applying a few rules such as those will help
make the immigration reform more just in the government’s eyes and will make it a little easier
for them to pass.
