Gonzales, an assistant professor at Harvard Graduate School of Education (2016), the genre is an article, argues that America should get an immigration reform to bring immigrants and families out to the public and to show connections and economic contributions to make America stronger.

As Gonzales states with all of his evidence from DACA is that this is a good choice for America and that this is a wake up call to the Supreme Court, legal citizens, and the president that we need this immigration reform. It only just benefits immigrants in America but everyone in the U.S positively.

In the editorial “Ending DACA Would Upend the Dreams of a Generation of Immigrants Without Fixing a Thing”, recently published by the Los Angeles Times, the writers address the current issues surrounding the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program in response to a public statement by the White House suggesting that the President is expected to annul DACA in as quickly as a week. In this article, the editors first explain what DACA is and what it accomplishes. DACA is a program instituted by the order of previous United States President Barrack Obama which is “designed to give stability to people whose undocumented status is no fault of their own” (“Ending” 1). Primarily intended for people who were minors brought illegally over the United States boarder by their parents, this federal policy provides a renewable two-year work visa and, consequently, immunity to deportation during that time for over 750,000 previously undocumented illegal immigrants.

It has been shown that using certain appeals in writings, especially on subjects that already give an especially large emotional reaction, makes opinions sound reasonable and sensible. For example, on a subject such as amnesty for illegal immigrants, it is easy to see the emotional appeal that one could use to weave a sneaky opinion into their article. In the article “Amnesty? Let Us Be Vigilant and Charitable”, John Kavanaugh, who created the article in 2008, decides to use a large amount of emotional appeal in his article on the subject of Amnesty. In contrast, the article “Dream On”, by Mark Krikorian, written in 2010 arguably does the exact opposite of emotional appeal, logical appeal. It is clear of his word choice that he is opposed to bad amnesty laws in general.

Undocumented immigrants live with fear of deportation every day of their lives. Those with control of state institutions who do not consider undocumented immigrants as worthy American residents in our society, take advantage of their power by instilling fear of deportation. The restrictive federal and state laws towards migration in the U.S. has become a way to keep undocumented immigrants and their families living in the shadows. Arrocha (2013) claims that the paradox of the U.S. migration seems be that our free democratic republicanism is viewed as the land of freedom, equality, and justice. Yet, these undocumented immigrants aren’t treated equally or given the freedom to live in our society without intimidation.

Recent political turmoil in Asia, Africa and Latin America have encouraged people from those areas to immigrate into the United States, and years before that, it was mostly Southern and Eastern Europeans along with European Jews and Irish people who immigrated due to the political conflicts in their respective countries. With such a complex population make-up, a turbulent history of tension and conflict amongst the country’s diverse ethnic, religious, and socio economic groups can be expected. Not only is conflict over social justice issues an extensive part of American history, ever since the foundation of the United States there has been conflict over who, exactly, is to be considered an American.
