Recently, political leaders have made efforts to reform the US immigration system, igniting fierce debate. Reform can mean opening the immigration system for a freer flow of people, or restricting immigration to smaller numbers, depending on a person’s perspective. Read this argument for making immigration more open and this argument for restricting immigration. In your own words, summarize each side’s argument in two to three sentences.
