Immigration Reform- Noah S.

           Steven A. Camarota, reporter for The New York Tiimes is advocating that illegal immigrants and legal immigrants are taking the jobs and pay of American citizens. As the job market goes down, lower educated people are competing with illegal immigrants for jobs. Economist George J. Borjas found that immigration reduces the employment of less-educated men. Another study came to the same conclusion.  Clinton said this according to latinpost.com We can't wait any longer for a pathway to full and equal citizenship". Clinton believes immigrants play a big role and contribute to the economy. I believe immigrants should be able to have a pathway to citizenship. I don't believe this process should be fast but they should still be considered people instead of animals. However, jobs should give a primary look at American citizens instead of immigrants. It may cost a little more money to give pay but the company would not be losing profit either way. Not all Americans can be over-qualified because of environmental conditions. Shouldnt' these people be allowed to get some sort of salary.
