2.    Category of problem: Immigration

3.    Level of problem: National

4.    This article concerns: A potential policy that is being considered to help a problem/issue that individuals/families face

5.    Importance/affect on families/individuals: This affects families/individuals because there will be less immigration people coming over to American, doing labor work cheaper than most American’s will do it for, so in the long run there will be more jobs for the legal Americans to work.

6.    My input: I am going to have to one hundred percent agree with Obama on this one that we should and need to tighten our broader to make it even harder for immigrates to come over illegally. I think right now our country makes it way too easy for immigrates to come over and live here illegally. They come over here and they work for cash so they don’t pay taxes, they get government help, and now Obama want to help them to the path of citizenship, I don’t think it should that easy for them when so many legal citizens need help. I believe that we should take care of our own people before we go worrying about other people in other countries, I mean we have so many people in this country already that need help but are on the broader line of receiving benefits and don’t make the cut because out country is out of money because it is supporting illegally immigrates who don’t pay taxes and take jobs away from tax paying Americans. I think something needs to be done about this problem and fast.
