I believe immigration is a necessity to America’s work force.  Without immigrants, many businesses that require lower paying jobs and poor working conditions could possibly be forced into debt and would have less people to hire for their companies.

My parents would be a perfect example of this because they own a car wash.  We have many employees that are legal immigrants and they are dedicated workers.  They rarely complain about making minimum wage because they are grateful of the opportunity to provide for their families. They come to work everyday and they are rarely ever late.  When they work, they work hard and do the best they can. They don’t stop to walk inside and talk to the cute cashier girls or sit down for a smoke break every five minutes. Even though working at the car wash has hard working conditions like being outside all day in the heat or freezing cold, the immigrant workers consider themselves spoiled compared to how they worked back home.  Without these people the car wash would struggle financially because other employees demand more money and better working conditions.  A lot of the workers will work long hours, saving their hard earned cash, and send it home to their families across the United States’ borders at the end of every month.  I personally know of a worker, Renaldo, who worked for us for five years, he would leave for a few months to visit his family in Mexico, and then come back and work the remaining months of the year. Renaldo would also pick up side jobs like painting at the car wash or helping me do yard work at my house. That way he would have money to support himself while he was living in the United States.

A local restaurant in my hometown specifically is the majority Albanian immigrant who work for many years to save up enough money to start their own restaurant. These immigrants create revenue for the United States, which helps our economy.

Even though some people say that immigration shouldn’t be allowed into our country, I believe they should be because they help us out in many ways. All Americans were at one time or another immigrants and we need to remember that. We are a nation of immigrants, yet immigration divides us.

They create revenue, which increases our economy.  Also, all Americans were at one time or another immigrants and we need to remember that. We are a nation of immigrants, yet immigration divides us.
