Japanese Canadians Canadian Immigration

U. S Immigration Should Not Be Curbed The argument
over whether or not immigration should be
restricted, is fought out by Daniel James and
Stephen Moore. James essentially believes that
jobs are being taken away from American workers,
immigrants are causing an increase of population
(and subsequent pollution of the environment), and
breaking up American culture. Moore, on the other
hand, insists that immigrants are vital to the
success of the country as a whole and without
them, we would not be ...

Number Of People Ellis Island

New Immigration began in the 1880 s and lasted
until the early 1900 s. The reasons for the
migratory movements were the close of the frontier
and the forcible restriction of Americas native
population to reservations. The main reason was
due to the industrial growth experienced by the
United States from the end of the Civil War. The
majority of the immigrants were Roman Catholics,
Eastern Orthodox or Jewish. Italians came in the
greatest numbers, with Jews second. Violence

America is sometimes referred to as a "nation of
immigrants" because of our largely open-door
policy toward accepting foreigners pursuing their
vision of the American Dream. Recently, there has
been a clamor by some politicians and citizens
toward creating a predominantly closed-door policy
on immigration, arguing that immigrants "threaten"
American life by creating unemployment by taking
jobs from American workers, using much-needed
social services, and encroaching on the "American
way of life....

Cheap Labor Employment Opportunities

'+ + h h 4, Undesirable conditions at home, such
as poverty and famine, drew numerous foreigners to
the idea of migrating to the United States. The U.

religious freedom, and land acquisition. Because
the move for many seemed to be a promise of
fortune and freedom, a mass migration of millions
had occurred in the late 19 th century. At first,
this move was widely accepted by many Americans.

America should continue to let immigrants enter

be to withhold more immigrants to come in since
there are many existing immigrants already living
everywhere around the United States. But the truth
is that the immigrants who come in are undoubtedly
helping America much more than they harm it.
