Description

This blog is focused on an aspect of illegal immigration in the United States that I feel very passionate about. Over the years immigrants entering the country illegally has been an on going problem and has resulted in several changes in legislation. Many of the laws enacted have not only been cruel and unwarranted, but seem to unfairly target one immigrant group in particular.

My research paper, as well as this blog will be angeled towards the immigration laws imposed during the Bush administration and exactly what the intentions were besides decreasing the influx of illegal immigration. By analyzing the moral side to some of the speeches, court cases and legal documents I have learned that there lie alternate motives in many of those regarding illegal immigration.

"In the United States, illegal immigration is not only an issue that has and continues to be delt with, but has been delt with in a way that targets Mexican immigrants and makes them out to seem second-class to the rest of society, inferior, as well as unwelcomed. By looking at policies put into act by the Bush administration, and implementation strategies that exist today working to keep illegal immigrants out of the U.S. clearly prove that the government will get rid of illegal immigrants by any means necessary even if it costs several millions of dollars and deaths per year".

I intend to use this blog to spread awareness on this controvercial angle of illegal immigration and have it be a forum for others to express their opinions on the topic. Hopefully this blog can motivate others to promote change in future policies for/against illegal immigration, the rights of illegals in the United States...etc
