Do you agree or disagree Hispanic/Latin people should leave the U.S.A just as the president Donald trump said. As a Hispanic I disagree with the president of deporting many Hispanic hard workers. Hispanic people have live in the U.S for years. They have been good people and the U.S economy also depends on the Hispanic.

Hispanic people have to pass through a very hard path to came to the United States looking for a better life so they can overcome and be a better people. Hispanic people deserve to be welcome in the United States because some of them are running away from their country because of the violence and some are under threat. Basically people that are entering the U.S are good people that are looking for help and excel.

Immigrants are really hard workers According to Octavio Blanco. “Overall, immigrants made up 17% of the U.S. workforce in 2014, which represented about 27.6 million of the country’s 161.4 million workers. Foreign born workers represented about 36% of the textile, apparel and leather manufacturing industry and 33% of the overall agriculture industry in 2014. Meanwhile, Pew found that 18% of the farming industry’s foreign-born workforce was composed of undocumented immigrants, while 15% were authorized to work in the U.S. In 2017 about 23% of immigrants work in the restaurant industry” (CNN). This show that immigrants mostly work hard to provide us the food that most people eat in the United States. I personally work as a cook. I work 40–45 hours every week. This proof that we are hard workers and we also respect the American culture.

Immigrants also help the United States economy based on US news “Immigrants illegally in the U.S. collectively contribute nearly $12 billion each year to state and local tax coffers, according to a new report that challenges recent election cycle rhetoric.” “And each and every state collects at least a few million dollars from tax payments made by such immigrants each year, ranging from Montana’s $2.2 million to California’s $3.2 billion.

“Regardless of the politically contentious nature of immigration reform, the data show undocumented immigrants greatly contribute to our nation’s economy, not just in labor but also with tax dollars.” This show that immigrants are helpful to the United States economy and that work really hard.

Immigrants also need help from the United States because most of immigrants are being murdered. El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala are the countries that have the most dangerous gangs in Central America. Families are trying to escape from them they are running away from their own country for their own and children safety. The United States need to know about families past before throwing them back from the hell that they escaped from. Immigrants shouldn’t be deported to their counties based that they faced more challenges in their countries.
