Immigrants are the future of America Who brings all of the diverse shows, foods, and cultures we see today? Who makes it possible for us to have everything that we do, and does the work no one else wants to? I’ll tell you who: Immigrants. Immigrants come from all around the globe, and they bring good values to us in the US. They bring us diversity. They do the work no one else wants to do. They bring us significant developments in the fields of arts, culinary, culture, and science. Immigrants are coming from China, India, Europe, Mexico, from everywhere. America was born from immigration, and right now, 15% of our population is from immigrants. America is a melting pot of cultures, traditions, and ideas, and these immigrants bring new clothing, new faiths, new languages, and new customs. Why turn down immigrants, if we ourselves came from immigration? The very idea is unamerican. We are a land of freedom, for people to come to to have the ability to do what they want, and as Americans, it is our duty to let these people do so. Immigrants do the jobs that no one else wants to do, such as picking plants, farmwork, and factory work. Though these jobs are simple, they are absolutely essential. By 1927, Mexico supplied us with almost all of the beet-pickers in the US. Immigrants do jobs for less money for our standards, but alluring wages for them, which allows companies to then reduce the prices of the goods they receive. Without these immigrants, almost everything we buy would have a higher price-tag, and we wouldn’t have all the goods that we do today if they didn’t do the work no one else wants to do. Finally, immigrants play significant roles in the developments of fields of arts, culinary, culture, and science. Immigrants have a resilience and a determination to succeed, and have a curiosity and openness to innovation. George Gershwin himself is an immigrant. If you’ve ever heard him play, you know he is going to be a musical legend. People like him bring so much to music, and let’s not get started on the amazing foods and dishes they bring to us. Immigrants are a diverse range of people, who bring us good values and deeds. Not letting in immigrants is unamerican, and they bring us so much diversity. They do the jobs no one else wants to do and keeps the production of our goods high, and prices low. They bring us developments and innovation. What could we possibly do without them?

Who are the nativists, and what are their responses to immigration? This new group called the Nativists are being discriminative towards the majority of immigrants for a variety of reasons. One of the reasons is because the nativists don´t believe that the immigrants are contribute to the nation effectively. The nativists passed laws to reduce immigrants coming into the country, here's why I am against them. Nativist beliefs The nativists believe that the immigrants coming into the country are dirty, have disease, and are bringing up the crime rates. They are being very naive for believing these factors when there is more to consider culturally. Another belief is that they think that immigrants don't perceive the American look, which is fair skin and light features. Nativists considered the immigrants dirty because they did not have the resources that they had. They feared of diseases being spread because of immigrants carrying it with them

The nativists passed laws to reduce immigrants coming into the country, here's why I am against them. The nativists believe that the immigrants coming into the country are dirty, have disease, and are bringing up the crime rates They made up these stereotypes because it seems like the natives are afraid of diversity. They are being very naive for believing these factors when there is more to consider culturally. Another belief is that they think that immigrants don't perceive the American look, which is fair skin and light features. Nativists considered the immigrants dirty because they did not have the resources that they had. They feared of diseases being spread because of immigrants carrying it with them To reduce nativists coming into America, they created a law in 1921 called the Emergency Immigration Act That limited the number of immigrants that are allowed into the United States, this law cut quotas down to 2%.The number of immigrant admitted to the United States fell from 805,228 to 309,556 immigrants. Body Paragraph 3: Why you are against nativists Why are the nativists being pre judgemental towards the immigrants? Americans should never judge a book by its it cover. The nativists believe that the immigrants are not fitting well into the American society but there also should not be a specific way you have to act, look, smell, or eat just to have freedom in America. This needs diversity The nativists are going to ruin the country if they don't stop the discrimination. There should not be a specific act or look to be in America. It's the land of the free, right? It´s time for a change
