    Ryan Corbitt Maria Duran Anthony Sandefer Noel Mendez
  2. How Unskilled Immigrants Hurt our Economy They come over here to the U.S. illegally. They get a job. On the job, they get hurt like Mr. Velasquez did, and he gets full coverage at the hospital. Not only does he get full coverage at the hospital, but he asks for a disability check from the U.S. because he got hurt on the job.
  3. How does Immigration Affect Americas Identity? Some say that one may live here, be of any ethnicity and speak any language. Others say, being an American means that one has freedom of choice, speech, expression, and religion. 200 years ago Benjamin Franklin wrote a quote about Germany. “… are the Germans going to Germanize us, before we Americanize them”
  4. Illegal Workers: Good for U.S. Economy 85% of all new workers are illegal immigrants. No time in the last 60 years have we come to close this. They are really displacing young workers at a very high rate. Without the immigrants we would have a decline in the work force of three to four percent. We could not have grown as much as we did in the 90’s if it wasn’t for immigrant workers.
