Exam Essay
Today in class we talked about our essay for our exam. We have three choices for it and I have decided on the second one. It involves immigration between with U.S and Mexico, which I feel strong about it. Here is the question/guide for it. "Option B: Consider our studies of immigration, push and pull forces, quotas, asylum, legal and illegal immigrants, civil rights and human rights, and the current state of our nation. Then, thoughtfully answer these questions: What are the different ways in which United States immigration policy has evolved over the last 100 years? What are the positive and negative effects of these policies? What immigration policies would you recommend the US implement right now, and what would be the effects (both positive and negative) of your policies?" I intend to do very well on this subject and on all of my exams.

Unauthorized immigration
Today in class we talked about unauthorized immigration. Most of this included the Mexico into U.S issue. Here is an article that describes the laws for them. "Individuals who were told by U.S. immigration to depart the United States and need their voluntary departure form signed by an immigration officer may appear without an appointment at the Embassy in Mexico City on Mondays from 11:00am to 1:00pm, room 118. We are closed to the public on Mexican and U.S. holidays. You must present the voluntary departure form you were given before departing the United States, as well as a valid photo identification and proof of when you departed the U.S. such as original airline boarding passes, bus tickets, or other proof of a land border crossing.
The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Office of International Affairs (OIA) is the largest international investigative component within in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
The mission of OIA is to protect the United States of America by enhancing national security to prevent terrorist attacks. In furtherance of this goal, OIA conducts and coordinates international investigations involving transnational criminal organizations responsible for the illegal movement of people, goods, money and technology into and out of the United States.
Additionally, we interact with the international community on behalf of ICE through representation with international organizations, international training and outreach, coordinating official visits, ensuring the integrity of our visa system and assisting in the repatriation of foreign nationals ordered deported or removed from the United States."
