Answer:heres what I put

Immigration is one of those varied abated subjects but there are some pros and cons. Some pros of immigration is increasing economic output in a better skilled workforce. But there's also a lot of cons such as potential fall in wages and increase pressure on public Services like health and education. Even though some policymakers have blamed immigration for slowing US wage growth since the 1970s they find that has little effect on Americans wages. Evidence suggest that immigration leads to more innovation and better educated workforce and bettering matching of skills with jobs and overall economic productivity is higher. So even though people say that immigration is not good it has some of its benefits and it has some of its cons

Answer:

This is what I put

Immagrants make up a significant portion of the United States. I think the factor that causes immigration is poor condtitions in someones home-country and the promise of a better life in another one. Pull factors such as jobs, safety, more money, fertile land, food and water, political security, less risk of natural hazard, and friends and family will pull immigrants into a country. Push factors such as unemployment, lack of safety, poverty, crop failure, drought, war, hazards and isolation are what pushed people out of a country.

In Mexico, some push factors are Lack of economic opportunity, such as debt & currency crises, neoliberal reforms, border industrialization, and NAFTA. Also quickening communication and transportation, Globalization of Western image, Proximity ,Mexican Citizenship and Migration Policies, lax emigration regime, Central American immigration, encouraging Mexican émigré political participation, and Political and Public Violence, From revolution to one-party state in Mexico (1910-2000), Civil wars in Central America (1970s-1990s), US “war on drugs”, US Cold War interventions in Central America. The factors that pull them into the United States are US economic development, expansion of service labor market, Corporate restructuring and moves, recruitment, lowering costs of financial transactions (remittances), Social networks and chain migration, Educational opportunities, Intertwined histories of Mexico and US, US volunteer immigration policy, porous door, family reunification, IRCA amnesty (1986), citizenship by birth, and US refugee policy, US bilateral relations with Mexico and neighboring Central American countries.
