Summary
Around 11 million undocumented immigrants currently live in the United States, and the question of what to do about them has sparked years of fierce debate. Some argue that these immigrants work hard and make positive contributions to the economy, while others argue that they burden taxpayers and create unwanted competition for jobs. In 2013, the Senate passed a comprehensive bill that included giving undocumented immigrants a path to citizenship, but it died in the House of Representatives. President Obama then took executive actions to protect some of them from deportation, but the courts blocked their implementation. So what should the United States do? Should it give undocumented immigrants a chance to earn citizenship through a process that would include paying a penalty and passing a security check? Or would such a process reward them for breaking the rules and encourage more illegal immigration? Should the United States give undocumented immigrants a path to citizenship?
