Immigration reform is a term widely used in the United States of America to describe proposals to maintain or increase legal immigration while decreasing illegal immigration. Immigrants play very important roles in a country and as a result become an asset to the country. Most commonly, immigrants are business owners and therefore can create jobs, immigrants increase the nations capacity to develop and promote new ideas, they also promote national competitiveness by providing both highly and low skilled labor. To native citizens most commonly immigrants are a nuisance to tem, people who take away their jobs and create trouble around. However, most of the research suggests that the fear that immigration will drastically harm native wages and job prospects is by and large unsubstantiated.
There is a need for as smart and logical immigration policy that would ensure economic growth. This is because some industries and sectors require consistent, reliable and skilled labor which cannot be provided by the locals alone. However, there is need to ensure that the only immigrants are the right ones that are needed for such sectors like engineering and science. Tis would therefore call for immigration policy reforms so as to establish a smart and logical policy that will only attract the people required. By reforming the policy, the problem of limited skilled labor will be solved and these would increase the competitiveness of various industries and hence promote economic growth.
The need for growth in certain sectors therefore warrant immigration policy reforms. This is because the global competitive challenges in these sectors are increasing and the only way to solve it is by having a dynamic and skilled labor that native alone cannot provide. The reforms must however ensure that only the right people are attracted and allowed into the country.
