Document Summary
The immigration and nationality act (1952, truman) is the act that donald trump is using to justify his executive order. Trump may continue with daca - deferred actions for childhood arrivals. While workers may be needed, focus only on those who are self-supporting. People should be here through legal means only. Focus only on highly skilled workers that aren"t available within us. Conservatives frame undocumented as: lawbreakers, fearsome, gov"t must protect society from these individuals, criminals, must maintain law and order, use emotions and charged language. Progressives: frame undocumented as: abused by society, papers please shows gov"t overreach in civil rights - racial pro ling, humans, need protection form pro ling in society, framing is important because it applies to immigration and healthcare. Issues of contention: economics, expenditure to support immigrants, supporting border security, changing demographics, latinos to become majority, increased political power, political rami cations, legislation: dems vs. gop, president vs. congress, courts, states vs. fed.
