  1. good morning.
  2. My name is over, Hernandez, and my controversial issue is
  3. illegal immigration.
  4. First, let's start off with some background information.
  5. Just what is illegal?
  6. Immigration, you might ask.
  7. Legal immigration is the alpha unauthorized resident immigration population that
  8. is defined as all foreign born non citizens who are
  9. not legal residents.
  10. So more eso most unauthorized residents either entered the United
  11. States without inspection, were admitted temporarily as they and stated
  12. past the date they were required to leave.
  13. American immigration didn't really begin until the late 17 hundreds,
  14. when the United States become an independent nation.
  15. Once the Constitution came into play, the new laws land
  16. immigrants flocked to defer to other countries of the fair
  17. restrictions. Now let's talk about some of the laws.
  18. There was a Chinese Exclusion Act of 1918 82 which
  19. was a federal law signed by President Chester put him
  20. reading all immigration of Chinese laborers.
  21. Then there was a sciatic Bard's own act, which was
  22. which was aimed to restrict immigration by imposing impossible literacy
  23. tests on immigrants creating new categories of inadmissible persons.
  24. Okay, you know.
  25. Then there was the 1924 Immigration Act that prevented immigration
  26. from Asia.
  27. Then there was DACA, which is deferred, which is deferred
  28. action for childhood arrivals, which is to protect, which is
  29. technically just to protect eligible immigrant youth who came to
  30. the U.
  31. S when they were Children from deportation.
  32. There are almost many laws just like this, like the
  33. dream act, the real idea act, Homeland Security Act, et
  34. cetera. Okay, so now let's talk about side one.
  35. Okay, So illegal immigration causes harm to Americans and legal
  36. residences by draining public funds, creating unfair competition for jobs
  37. with America's least prepared workers and thereby lowering wages and
  38. working conditions and by opposing unwanted strains on service is
  39. designed to provide assistance to Americans.
  40. Illegal immigration causes harm to Americans and legal residences.
  41. There is a list of several million eligible people waiting
  42. to be legally admitted as immigrants or a country.
  43. Some of them have been on my lip on the
  44. list for many years, waiting for one of them numerically
  45. limited visas to become available.
  46. Illegal immigration makes a mockery of these people, so adherence
  47. is to the rules of end of our country's sovereign
  48. I ity the approx approximate doubling of illegal alien population
  49. since that time of the estimate means that the number
  50. of jobs lost to American workers and the cost of
  51. displacement would also likely have more than doubled as millions
  52. of illegal aliens are allowed to remain here year after
  53. year. Pressure rises from immigrant advocates Grantham Amnesty, but this
  54. is the equivalent of pardoning criminals and mass because it's
  55. easier to capturing them.
  56. It encourages further illegal immigration by creating new legal immigrants
  57. out of the older legal ones as dramatically to the
  58. back flock of relatives abroad abroad who apply for legal
  59. admission. It also adds to the cost of taxpayer because
  60. when illegal aliens were given legal residences, they also become
  61. illegible for additional tax funded service is mhm.
  62. It is an acknowledged fact that since we have refused
  63. to secure our borders, we have facilitated transit and infiltration
  64. of the Al Qaeda affiliated terrorists and narco terrorists who
  65. are now living illegally in the United States.
  66. This is serious national security issue, as manifested by the
  67. Boston Marathon bombing, which you might have heard of, and
  68. fixing our porous borders is one of the batty.
  69. The threat of terrorism that America faces.
  70. Any immigration bill must have enforceable border security measures as
  71. a key national security element and protecting our country society.
  72. Some people say that illegal immigration benefits the U.
  73. S economy through additional text revenue, expansion of low cost
  74. labor pool and increase money in circulation.
  75. They contend that immigrants bring good values, have more motivation,
  76. is consistent with the American dream, performed jobs that Americans
  77. won't take and that the opposition to immigration stands for
  78. racism. Undocumented immigrants contribute significantly to state and local taxes,
  79. collectively paying an estimated $11.64 billion a year.
  80. Illegal immigrants often benefit businesses by feeling low wage jobs.
  81. They're difficult to fill with Americans, but illegal immigrants can
  82. add to the cost of US social programs.
  83. Okay, there are around an estimated living 11 million undocumented
  84. immigrants currently recited in the United States.
  85. It is unrealistic and inhumane to deport these individuals from
  86. the families and lives in the United States.
  87. Okay, it might seem intuitive that when there's an increase
  88. in supply of workers, the ones who were here already
  89. and will make less money or lose their jobs, immigrants
  90. don't just increase the supply of labor.
  91. They seem butane Eastleigh increased demand for it, using the
  92. wages that Aaron to rent apartments, eat food, get haircuts
  93. and by cell phones.
  94. That means that there's more jobs eating food, getting haircut,
  95. buying cellphones and renting apartments overall, which means that the
  96. increase the size of the economy, logically of immigrants were
  97. stealing jobs.
  98. So what?
  99. Every young person leaving school and entering the job market
  100. demographics. As we can see here, it shows the percentage
  101. of who says immigrants are benefit to the country.
  102. We can see that Democrats, Democrats arguably agree with us
  103. and believe that illegal immigrants are benefit to the country
  104. while Republicans are less.
  105. These are the public attitudes towards immigration levels.
  106. We can see that more people want want to decrease
  107. immigration levels in 1995.
  108. But now people believe that we should just keep the
  109. current levels that were at okay, majorities in the US
  110. So this is technically saying that the percentage of people
  111. who want to increase border security 40% But people want
  112. there to be a way for immigrants toe stay here
  113. legally that are illegal.
  114. Okay, and here we're just we're I'm just showing you
  115. the United States attitudes towards illegal immigration But here I
  116. decided to show you off a bunch of different countries
  117. that I believe that there, uh, good towards the country.
  118. Yeah, we can see the different generations that that people
  119. say they illegal immigrants are strength to them because we
  120. can see the silence are always gonna be lower because
  121. they were born in in a different generation than we
  122. were. Um, this is the percentage of how much people
  123. worry about illegal immigration 59% as of 2017.
  124. And then on the whole, people were asked if you
  125. think immigration is a good thing or bad thing in
  126. the United States and as we can see, there's more.
  127. People believe it's a good thing than a bad thing.
  128. Economics the US needs you don't get immigrants will be
  129. able to create economic growth and also prepare for an
  130. aging workforce.
  131. Immigrants add trillions of dollars to our gross domestic product
  132. and tax revenue, including $2 trillion to the GDP in
  133. 2016 and $329 billion to state, local and federal taxes
  134. annually cuts the immigration where all have would also have
  135. devastating effects story economy, including a 2% decrease in the
  136. GDP by 2040 and A 12.5 degrees in the U.
  137. S. Economic growth and 4.6 million fewer jobs.
  138. Middle class families and Rust Belt states would be hit
  139. harder, as in mostly rely on immigration to stabilize the
  140. population to revive their economic economic.
  141. These immigrants also make a significant contribution to tax revenue,
  142. including $329 billion in state, local and federal taxes annually
  143. in 2010 undocumented individuals made $13 billion into retirement accounts
  144. and have only received one billionaire return.
  145. Indeed, over the years, immigrants have contributed up to $300
  146. billion in the Social Security Trust fund.
  147. My position, my position that I'm taking, taking on my
  148. topic is for illegal immigration because first of all, it
  149. helps with the GDP and brings in more jobs and
  150. money to America.
  151. Some people also say that illegal immigration benefits the U.
  152. S economy, the topics like tax revenue expansion with low
  153. caste labor pool and also increase money in circulation.
  154. Undocumented immigrants contribute greatly to the state.
  155. Local and federal taxes paint around $11.64 billion a year,
  156. thes immigrants.
  157. I believe that these immigrants should all be offered of
  158. path to legal status and eventually earned citizenship.
  159. This track citizenship should be realistic rather than being so
  160. burdensome that it prevents integration.
  161. Allowing these immigrants to regularize the status will not only
  162. strengthen our national security, but will also stimulate the economy
  163. and enhance America's rich, vibrant and diverse culture.
  164. Thank you.
