Many people choose to make the perilous journey across our southern border and endure harsh conditions when the legal option is right there. The reason so is because of the rules and regulations needed to become a citizen or to gain asylum it is very complex and takes a lot of time which deters many from trying to causing an influx on otherwise innocent citizens trying to find opportunity within our nation.

]]> 2025-03-19 15:31:29 UTC https://padlet.com/abaltieri/jvkunsroqgs9s863/wish/3373325768 Provide supporting evidence (throughout letter) abaltieri https://padlet.com/abaltieri/jvkunsroqgs9s863/wish/3373325769 List the three quotes that you are going to use from your research:

  1. "as of March 2023 the average wait time for cases pending an immigration hearing before a judge was 762 days."

  2. " In March 2021, more than 172,000 immigrants

    —of which more than 18,800 were unaccompanied children—were detained"

  3. "One answer has been to reform their immigration systems to make deportation easier."

]]> 2025-03-19 15:31:29 UTC https://padlet.com/abaltieri/jvkunsroqgs9s863/wish/3373325770 Par. 2 Proposed solution to the social issue abaltieri https://padlet.com/abaltieri/jvkunsroqgs9s863/wish/3373325772 What I propose to solve the crisis at our southern border is to direct attention to updating the process to legally enter the country and make it more streamline for people who are determined to find opportunities while abiding by our laws and upholding the integrity of our country as it was meant to be since the early days of this country.

]]> 2025-03-19 15:31:29 UTC https://padlet.com/abaltieri/jvkunsroqgs9s863/wish/3373325772 Par. 4 Potential changes/impact abaltieri https://padlet.com/abaltieri/jvkunsroqgs9s863/wish/3373325773 With the potential revisions to the immigration system there is the likely possibility that people who want to abide by our laws can easily apply to be admitted into a pathway to citizenship. A large impact that would happen is that not only will there be a reduction in the political divisiveness this issue has but also would overall bring a more stable flow of immigrants while also restoring a sense respect for the law that may have been diminished similarly with prohibition

Fortunately, there is change that can be made and with that many immigrants can join in creating a more prosperous nation, finding opportunity, and adding to the vast history our nation has being built by immigrants.


Sincerely,

Anthony Balteri
