A hot issue right now is immigration reform and Erica
Grieder’s “The Surprisingly Sunny Prospects For Comprehensive Immigration Reform”
does a great job of showing where our political leaders intend on taking immigration
reform and the methods they intend to use for handling it. Hillary takes the
approach that all illegal immigrants in the country should be granted
citizenship and while her opponent suggests we merely make a “wall” which in
some way will “make America great again”. Both sides seem to agree that a
reform of our current policy regarding illegal immigration need to be
overhauled and simply taking all of the illegal immigrants and taking them back
to what ever their native lands maybe is an over whelming job. The article does
take into account that in 1986 Reagan attempted to reduce the number of illegal
immigration by passing a bill to allow them to become citizens how ever only
half of the illegal population seem to have taken the deal in over thirty
years. Trump has sat with the the Hispanic Republican Senator and made
adjustments to his “tone” and agreed to “soften” his speeches when it comes to
this topic. Trump has been in meetings with the Mexican president Enrique Pena
Nieto going over solutions to this current problem.
