good morning.
00:02 - 00:05
My name is over, Hernandez, and my controversial issue is
00:05 - 00:06
illegal immigration.
00:07 - 00:09
First, let's start off with some background information.
00:11 - 00:13
Just what is illegal?
00:13 - 00:14
Immigration, you might ask.
00:14 - 00:19
Legal immigration is the alpha unauthorized resident immigration population that
00:19 - 00:23
is defined as all foreign born non citizens who are
00:23 - 00:24
not legal residents.
00:24 - 00:28
So more eso most unauthorized residents either entered the United
00:28 - 00:32
States without inspection, were admitted temporarily as they and stated
00:33 - 00:34
past the date they were required to leave.
00:36 - 00:40
American immigration didn't really begin until the late 17 hundreds,
00:40 - 00:42
when the United States become an independent nation.
00:42 - 00:46
Once the Constitution came into play, the new laws land
00:47 - 00:50
immigrants flocked to defer to other countries of the fair
00:50 - 00:54
restrictions. Now let's talk about some of the laws.
00:56 - 01:01
There was a Chinese Exclusion Act of 1918 82 which
01:01 - 01:03
was a federal law signed by President Chester put him
01:03 - 01:05
reading all immigration of Chinese laborers.
01:06 - 01:09
Then there was a sciatic Bard's own act, which was
01:10 - 01:14
which was aimed to restrict immigration by imposing impossible literacy
01:15 - 01:18
tests on immigrants creating new categories of inadmissible persons.
01:20 - 01:21
Okay, you know.
01:21 - 01:26
Then there was the 1924 Immigration Act that prevented immigration
01:27 - 01:27
from Asia.
01:29 - 01:33
Then there was DACA, which is deferred, which is deferred
01:34 - 01:36
action for childhood arrivals, which is to protect, which is
01:37 - 01:40
technically just to protect eligible immigrant youth who came to
01:40 - 01:40
the U.
01:40 - 01:42
S when they were Children from deportation.
01:43 - 01:46
There are almost many laws just like this, like the
01:46 - 01:49
dream act, the real idea act, Homeland Security Act, et
01:49 - 01:57
cetera. Okay, so now let's talk about side one.
02:01 - 02:05
Okay, So illegal immigration causes harm to Americans and legal
02:05 - 02:09
residences by draining public funds, creating unfair competition for jobs
02:09 - 02:13
with America's least prepared workers and thereby lowering wages and
02:13 - 02:16
working conditions and by opposing unwanted strains on service is
02:17 - 02:18
designed to provide assistance to Americans.
02:19 - 02:22
Illegal immigration causes harm to Americans and legal residences.
02:25 - 02:28
There is a list of several million eligible people waiting
02:29 - 02:31
to be legally admitted as immigrants or a country.
02:32 - 02:34
Some of them have been on my lip on the
02:34 - 02:37
list for many years, waiting for one of them numerically
02:38 - 02:40
limited visas to become available.
02:41 - 02:44
Illegal immigration makes a mockery of these people, so adherence
02:44 - 02:48
is to the rules of end of our country's sovereign
02:48 - 02:54
I ity the approx approximate doubling of illegal alien population
02:55 - 02:58
since that time of the estimate means that the number
02:58 - 03:01
of jobs lost to American workers and the cost of
03:01 - 03:05
displacement would also likely have more than doubled as millions
03:05 - 03:09
of illegal aliens are allowed to remain here year after
03:09 - 03:13
year. Pressure rises from immigrant advocates Grantham Amnesty, but this
03:13 - 03:16
is the equivalent of pardoning criminals and mass because it's
03:16 - 03:17
easier to capturing them.
03:17 - 03:21
It encourages further illegal immigration by creating new legal immigrants
03:22 - 03:24
out of the older legal ones as dramatically to the
03:24 - 03:29
back flock of relatives abroad abroad who apply for legal
03:30 - 03:32
admission. It also adds to the cost of taxpayer because
03:33 - 03:36
when illegal aliens were given legal residences, they also become
03:36 - 03:42
illegible for additional tax funded service is mhm.
03:44 - 03:46
It is an acknowledged fact that since we have refused
03:46 - 03:52
to secure our borders, we have facilitated transit and infiltration
03:52 - 03:55
of the Al Qaeda affiliated terrorists and narco terrorists who
03:55 - 03:57
are now living illegally in the United States.
03:57 - 04:01
This is serious national security issue, as manifested by the
04:01 - 04:04
Boston Marathon bombing, which you might have heard of, and
04:04 - 04:06
fixing our porous borders is one of the batty.
04:07 - 04:08
The threat of terrorism that America faces.
04:09 - 04:12
Any immigration bill must have enforceable border security measures as
04:13 - 04:17
a key national security element and protecting our country society.
04:25 - 04:28
Some people say that illegal immigration benefits the U.
04:28 - 04:32
S economy through additional text revenue, expansion of low cost
04:32 - 04:34
labor pool and increase money in circulation.
04:35 - 04:38
They contend that immigrants bring good values, have more motivation,
04:39 - 04:42
is consistent with the American dream, performed jobs that Americans
04:42 - 04:45
won't take and that the opposition to immigration stands for
04:45 - 04:54
racism. Undocumented immigrants contribute significantly to state and local taxes,
04:54 - 04:59
collectively paying an estimated $11.64 billion a year.
05:01 - 05:04
Illegal immigrants often benefit businesses by feeling low wage jobs.
05:05 - 05:07
They're difficult to fill with Americans, but illegal immigrants can
05:08 - 05:09
add to the cost of US social programs.
05:11 - 05:17
Okay, there are around an estimated living 11 million undocumented
05:18 - 05:20
immigrants currently recited in the United States.
05:20 - 05:24
It is unrealistic and inhumane to deport these individuals from
05:24 - 05:25
the families and lives in the United States.
05:27 - 05:31
Okay, it might seem intuitive that when there's an increase
05:31 - 05:33
in supply of workers, the ones who were here already
05:34 - 05:36
and will make less money or lose their jobs, immigrants
05:37 - 05:39
don't just increase the supply of labor.
05:39 - 05:42
They seem butane Eastleigh increased demand for it, using the
05:42 - 05:45
wages that Aaron to rent apartments, eat food, get haircuts
05:46 - 05:46
and by cell phones.
05:47 - 05:52
That means that there's more jobs eating food, getting haircut,
05:52 - 05:57
buying cellphones and renting apartments overall, which means that the
05:57 - 06:00
increase the size of the economy, logically of immigrants were
06:00 - 06:01
stealing jobs.
06:01 - 06:02
So what?
06:02 - 06:05
Every young person leaving school and entering the job market
06:12 - 06:18
demographics. As we can see here, it shows the percentage
06:18 - 06:22
of who says immigrants are benefit to the country.
06:22 - 06:27
We can see that Democrats, Democrats arguably agree with us
06:27 - 06:30
and believe that illegal immigrants are benefit to the country
06:30 - 06:33
while Republicans are less.
06:38 - 06:41
These are the public attitudes towards immigration levels.
06:41 - 06:46
We can see that more people want want to decrease
06:46 - 06:47
immigration levels in 1995.
06:48 - 06:51
But now people believe that we should just keep the
06:51 - 07:00
current levels that were at okay, majorities in the US
07:01 - 07:04
So this is technically saying that the percentage of people
07:05 - 07:09
who want to increase border security 40% But people want
07:10 - 07:13
there to be a way for immigrants toe stay here
07:14 - 07:15
legally that are illegal.
07:16 - 07:21
Okay, and here we're just we're I'm just showing you
07:21 - 07:25
the United States attitudes towards illegal immigration But here I
07:25 - 07:28
decided to show you off a bunch of different countries
07:28 - 07:33
that I believe that there, uh, good towards the country.
07:36 - 07:40
Yeah, we can see the different generations that that people
07:40 - 07:44
say they illegal immigrants are strength to them because we
07:44 - 07:47
can see the silence are always gonna be lower because
07:47 - 07:49
they were born in in a different generation than we
07:49 - 07:57
were. Um, this is the percentage of how much people
07:57 - 08:00
worry about illegal immigration 59% as of 2017.
08:04 - 08:06
And then on the whole, people were asked if you
08:06 - 08:08
think immigration is a good thing or bad thing in
08:08 - 08:10
the United States and as we can see, there's more.
08:11 - 08:13
People believe it's a good thing than a bad thing.
08:17 - 08:21
Economics the US needs you don't get immigrants will be
08:22 - 08:24
able to create economic growth and also prepare for an
08:25 - 08:25
aging workforce.
08:26 - 08:28
Immigrants add trillions of dollars to our gross domestic product
08:28 - 08:31
and tax revenue, including $2 trillion to the GDP in
08:31 - 08:36
2016 and $329 billion to state, local and federal taxes
08:36 - 08:40
annually cuts the immigration where all have would also have
08:40 - 08:43
devastating effects story economy, including a 2% decrease in the
08:44 - 08:47
GDP by 2040 and A 12.5 degrees in the U.
08:47 - 08:51
S. Economic growth and 4.6 million fewer jobs.
08:51 - 08:54
Middle class families and Rust Belt states would be hit
08:54 - 08:57
harder, as in mostly rely on immigration to stabilize the
08:57 - 08:59
population to revive their economic economic.
09:00 - 09:03
These immigrants also make a significant contribution to tax revenue,
09:03 - 09:07
including $329 billion in state, local and federal taxes annually
09:08 - 09:13
in 2010 undocumented individuals made $13 billion into retirement accounts
09:13 - 09:15
and have only received one billionaire return.
09:16 - 09:18
Indeed, over the years, immigrants have contributed up to $300
09:19 - 09:21
billion in the Social Security Trust fund.
09:29 - 09:34
My position, my position that I'm taking, taking on my
09:34 - 09:37
topic is for illegal immigration because first of all, it
09:37 - 09:40
helps with the GDP and brings in more jobs and
09:40 - 09:40
money to America.
09:41 - 09:44
Some people also say that illegal immigration benefits the U.
09:44 - 09:47
S economy, the topics like tax revenue expansion with low
09:47 - 09:49
caste labor pool and also increase money in circulation.
09:50 - 09:53
Undocumented immigrants contribute greatly to the state.
09:53 - 09:56
Local and federal taxes paint around $11.64 billion a year,
09:57 - 09:58
thes immigrants.
09:58 - 10:00
I believe that these immigrants should all be offered of
10:00 - 10:02
path to legal status and eventually earned citizenship.
10:03 - 10:06
This track citizenship should be realistic rather than being so
10:06 - 10:08
burdensome that it prevents integration.
10:09 - 10:11
Allowing these immigrants to regularize the status will not only
10:11 - 10:14
strengthen our national security, but will also stimulate the economy
10:14 - 10:17
and enhance America's rich, vibrant and diverse culture.
10:17 - 10:18
Thank you.
