This is honestly very very very important to US history because if Trump succeeds the number of immigrants in America will decrease by over 50%. Those people have families they need to be reunited with, and lives that will be better off in the safety of america. Abolishing this will do nothing good for our country, considering 70% of terrorists are white American citizens. Foreigners should not be shunned from our country, but welcomed. Thousands of innocent, hard working people should not be denied freedom because of the actions of one. If this system is taken down and not replaced it will not be an improvement but a great mistake.

Trump wants to end diverse immigration by: jules stowe
On November 1st, 2017 a terrorist attack took place in New York, killing eight people. The suspected terrorist is a Uzbekistan native by the name of Sayfullo Saipov, supposedly here due to an immigration act that allows less privileged families immigrate to America. The service was created to bring wider diversity to the immigration pools in America, and has helped hundreds of families live full, happy, safe lives. November 1st, 2017, Trumps has decided to abolish the Diversity Immigration Visa Program. He currently has no sort of plan to replace the program, and all he has said is that we need to "get rid of the lottery program as soon as possible".

I think that it's crazy to get rid of a program that changed so immigrants' lives based off of 1 person's actions who went through the program but hey, that's Trumpito.
ReplyDeleteI think that diversity is one of the factors that makes America unique from other countries. To cancel immigration laws that allow for this diversity is really horrible, and takes away from the American principle 'justice for all'.
ReplyDeleteJon Slavinskas- The entire program needs to be reformed, as the only to requirements for acceptance are A) if the applicant is from an acceptable country, and B) if the applicant has completed highschool. While the current program is good from an idealistic standpoint, it in no way reunites families, as the accepted individuals are chosen at random. Furthermore, as there as groups of foreign individuals who would seek to abuse this policy and harm domestic citizens, Trump's actual claim, that the program be "merit-based", is far more realistic in the current unfortunate but dangerous environment. When radical terrorists cease to harm our citizens, then we can return to the wonderful idealism that the current plan has. But until then the government's top priority is, as stated in our declaration of independence, "organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
