Thousands of people are waiting right now for a legal way to enter the country and are

hopeful that one day they would be allowed to enter the country to an accepting crowd but with

increased tension, legal migrants have a tougher time trying to enter the country legally. This

causes issues to their communities as they get targeted more often by immigration officers as

well as places pressure onto public institutions/ infrastructure as well as an economic drain. This

inevitably leads to extremism toward both sides as with extremism as more and more opposing

sides look to radical ways of dispatching the undocumented away from their cities. It also

prevents collaboration between ethnicities and leads to more division that can lead to a city or

country to stagnate as a whole.

Main Issues

  • Economic Pressure

    The local government would need to provide funds for the immigrants that it doesn’t have. This would lead to multiple groups being underfunded with infrastructure stretch thin. It would also lead to a highly competitive atmosphere for help from the government.

  • Security Risk

    As illegals cross the border, many are criminals with a history of violent crime. As well as many of them are drug mules for the cartel. Not to mention that the migrants have a higher risk of getting injured or dying on there way to America.

  • Political Pressure

    Countries like the US have been pressuring other foreign governments into preventing migrants from entering their country. This has also lead to more political divide in the US government. As the congress can’t work to well due to the interests of political parties.
