Should Millions of Undocumented Immigrants Be Allowed to Live in the U.S. Without Fear of Getting Deported?

Should Millions of Undocumented Immigrants Be Allowed to Live in the U.S. Without Fear of Getting Deported? Introduction Hook: Would you report me to ICE if I told you that I am an illegal immigrant from Mexico? Background Information: I was four years old when I immigrated to the U.S. in August 1985. I was not old enough to make that choice. My parents made the choice for me. It took me ten years to obtain my green card and an additional 13 years to obtain my U.S. citizenship. My family and I were among the fortunate ones to obtain residency thanks to the Reagan Administration. Thesis: Yes, undocumented immigrants should be allowed to live in the U.S. without the fear of being deported. Body Main Ideas: Stereotypes about illegal immigrants being criminals and making a negative impact on the U.S. economy are unfounded. We are hardworking, eager to learn, and willing to go through the necessary process and expense to be legalized. Native born U.S. citizens do not have a clear understanding as to how difficult the process is to be legalized. Evidence: Research and statistics on the impact immigrants have on the U.S. Organization: Elaborate on my background information, transitioning into the extensive legalization process. Discuss the unfounded stereotypes about illegal immigrants, backing this with statistics from research studies.
