At the beginning of class we went over what a cult of personality. It is a person or leader who really has like a god like status. Then we went over the current events. The events were a earthquake in Afghanistan that killed over 30 people. We also talked about the government and how there working on a plan to try and solve the major defect that our country faces. Following that we went over the islands of the European map. After that we moved into our immigration issues. We started with border security and the major things that are being done to secure it. Some of the ways the U.S. protects is that they almost doubled the total amount of troops on the border with in a couple of years. They are also building a fence from southern California to eastern Texas. Another way to catch immigrants on the border is by using unmanned drones. There also trying to make the towns that border Mexico some of the safest in the world. Since 2011 has dropped 53% because of the stricter boarder control. We also talked about the Department of Homeland Security. They are to protect us from any type of attack on U.S. soil. Next we talked about immigrants coming to America from Canada.
Compared to Mexico immigrants this is a very small problem.
The group to present after that was the Strengthen the Enforcement. Some ways to do this is to make laws more strict. One major problem is that illegal immigrants are coming into America and they are stealing peoples identity. There should also be stricter laws on company owners that higher undocumented immigrants with knowing that they were illegally here.
Following that group was Earning Citizenship group
President Obama says that if people come out and say that they are here illegally then we will try to help them down to the pathway to citizenship. They must past a criminal background check and must have to learn English, and they also have wait in the back of the line fore say for the people who are trying to get here legally. To receive a green card you must pay an additional fee for coming illegally in the first place. Then they will have to learn to speak English, and must also pass a background check. The "Dreamers Act" is an act that tells ways that young kids that were brought her to the United States by their parents who are illegal immigrants and the ways that they can become a U.S. citizen is they can go be in the armed forces for at least 2 years and/or they can go to college for 2 years as well.
