Agency Discourse Memo

Agency Discourse Observation Memo

RE: Immigration
Message:
Immigration is a huge issue in the United States. Living in El Paso we are right in the middle of the problems. Although because of our mixed culture and close relationship to the Mexican border solutions are more difficult to obtain. Personally I feel that the immigration is getting out of hand. However, I too have mixed emotions about the situation. I understand how anyone would want to better their lives or their children’s lives, but I take it personally when their benefit is my loss. The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement works to prevent immigrants from crossing illegally.  They do their best to help those immigrants who try to cross truthfully. The immigrants that cross with wrong intentions are penalized.
This discourse agency uses its resources to remove any type of counterfeit, illegal substances, or illegal beings from the country. I think it is important for the people to involve themselves with the issue of immigration. The problem that started small has escalated to where it is finally seen as a threat. If people would have foreseen the issue in the past maybe our future would not seem so grim. I make it a point to enlighten myself with issues of this topic daily.
