« The USA is facing an important and increasing issue: illegal immigration.

In 2011, the Pew Hispanic Center estimated that the number of illegal immigrants had reached 11.5 millions of people.

Moreover, 58% of this population was from Mexico according to the same institute. This population represents an issue for authorities because they can be criminals: 216 698 criminals were arrested when sneaking across the border between the USA and Mexico in 2011 in accordance with the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Furthermore, these people represent easy preys for big companies who see them as a cheap labour. First of all, the government has to strengthen the border control to regulate the flow of immigrants.

The USA has to prevent illegal migrants to cross over the border.

At the same time, the USA should provide the immigrants with the means of accessing a better life.

For example, the government can sue companies employing illegal immigrants.

It also can set up “schools” for immigrants in order to teach them language and values of the USA.

This could facilitate the insertion of immigrants into the society. To put it in a nutshell, the USA has to offer the illegal population a better way of life.

The government has to listen to these people and try to find ways of containing illegal immigration, which is becoming an increasing issue. Louis Delannoy TS2 English Work. »
