Option 1: Open Ourselves to the World
• America should get rid of barriers that prevent immigrants from coming here.
• Give immigrants access to better quality of life: education, jobs, health care, etc.
• America is a nation of immigrants.• Key Quote: “The United States has been a land of
opportunity for people outside our borders. Each wave of immigrants has contributed to our greatness.”

Option 2: Make Emigration Unnecessary
• America should help improve other countries so their people won’t want to leave.
• America should increase trade relationships with these countries.
• This would decrease immigration and possibly terrorism.• Key Quote: “By improving life among the world’s poor
and disadvantaged, we can get a grip on the forces that drive desperate immigrants to our country’s shores.”

Option 3: Admit the Talent We Need• America should only admit immigrants who will help the
economy.• We need workers in technology fields as well as low wage
workers for farming.• Limit the number of immigrants based on economic
conditions.• Key Quote: “Immigration policy should be designed first to
serve our country’s economic needs, not solve the world’s problems.”

Option 4: Restrict Immigration• America does not have the resources to handle a high
level of immigration.• Immigration damages our health care and education
systems.• Drastically reduce the number of immigrants to preserve
our jobs.• Key Quote: “We should drastically reduce the number of
immigrants we accept and commit the resources necessary to take control of our borders.”
