According to the 14Th amendment, anyone not born in the U.S. are considered aliens. Therefore, any person who tries to enter the U.S. from another country is an illegal immigrant.
In the most recent news of today. An article from Fox News, Harry Reid states he has an energy bill and not an immigration bill. The climate bill is much farther down the road than the necessary reform of illegal immigrants entering the U.S. January 28Th 2007, was the day that Barack Obama signed saying reform was needed for Health Care and immigration. That was three years ago and he still is not completing what he has promised Americans. People opposing the law that was just passed on Friday the 23rd of April, believe that the law will lead to rampant racial profiling and turn Arizona into a police state. Anyone who is not white will be questioned about their immigrant status. Arizona is home to an estimated 460,000 illegal immigrants. Governor Jan Brewer was the one who signed the bill on Friday, is now in charge to make sure no illegal immigrants are doing drug trafficking from Arizona to Mexico. President Barack Obama believes this bill is "misguided" and needs to be examined to make sure it is legal.
What the law does? The law makes it so if an illegal immigrant can't provide legal documents of citizenship, they could be arrested, jailed up to 6 months and fined $2,500. People believe the March 27Th shooting of Rob Krentz on his property in Arizona, was what made illegal immigration and border security more important. It was said he was shot by an illegal border crosser. There is an organization that is based upon immigration reform called FAIR, it focuses on improving border security, stop illegal immigration, and to promote immigration levels consistent with the national interest. There are more than 100 million illegal immigrants that come to the U.S. every year. This puts a burden on our economy, health care, education, government budgets, employment, environment, crimes and many other issues in America. Immigration Reform is necessary, it was supposed to take place when President Bush was in office and that didn't happen and it is supposed to take place with President Obama. Hopefully, he doesn't let us down.
