Introduction My line of inquiry is illegal immigration in the United States, throughout my multi-
genre research project different points of view and beliefs will be represented. Fully understanding
different outlooks on illegal immigration and getting up to date information on where the United States
currently sites on illegal immigration.
o Audience The general US population is going to be my intended audience who read the daily
newspaper and wants to gain valuable information on the current status of illegal immigration in
the United States.
o Rational A newspaper article that will be created on Word document, I will use the format
provided to portray easy to read information in different styles. The purpose of the genre I have
chosen is because it will be helpful to write a good newspaper article with straight to the point
topics and easy to read sentences. This genre fits my research because a lot of the information
provided to the general population is in the form of a newspaper article either online or physical
paper. I believe choosing this genre of communication will allow me to give a good point of view
on my line of inquiry. Not everyone might agree but the statements will be proved with facts and
data from scholarly articles.
o Specific research 1. Immigrants that are here working for the national economy are helping
local shops and big businesses. Immigrant unemployment rates are lower than the national
average of native citizens. Also, social security taxes paid by undocumented workers have led to
a $463 billion surplus in money. A small percent of immigrants that travel to the United States
are actually high trained and skilled workers, they come to America to find jobs they can excel
in. Many US jobs are not being filled with native citizens because of the high requirements
needed to apply for the job; however, some immigrants have these requirements to receive the
job title. 2. Studies have concluded according to the article that crime rates have not been affect
by any means of illegal immigration. In addition, native-born citizens are more likely to commit
crimes than illegal immigrants in any countries around the world. After collecting data in the
cities of El Paso and San Diego, charts show that in these cities where the population of illegal
immigrants is high than native born citizens, the crime rates are in a steady decline of the last
couple of year. Even with the increase of population and gang members, crime rates are still
going down. However, the CIS argues that the crime that is committed by immigrants, stays in
immigrant based communities and the police are never contacted.
o Audience When I create the power point, my intended audience will be induvial people who
strongly agree in the rights of freedom for every human being. In my line of inquiry, illegal
immigration has two major viewpoints the people who are strongly against it, and the people
who are strongly for it.
o Rational Most articles that I have read are strongly against immigration; however, in this
power point, information will be given on the benefits of illegal immigration into the united
states. This genre fits my reach good because a PowerPoint gives me ability to portray
information in a many different ways, images, words, videos, and personal reflection letters.
Expectation of my audience is to be respectful on the different viewpoints on immigration,
weather you believe it or not. Everyone has an important voice on this topic, my goal is to
provide information based on a different mindset from most other people.
o Specific research Less than half of all illegal immigrants are Latino or Hispanic, as of 2012
about 40 million immigrants lived in the United States. Only about 46 percent or about 18
million are Hispanic or Latino. Not all immigrants are poor and do not all have low paying jobs.
Approximately 16 percent of illegal immigrants make up the United States national workforce,
while over 20 percent of illegal immigrants are dentist, nurses and other health provides getting
paid high salaries. Immigrants who are unauthorized are good for federal and state budgets
because they contribute more to the national economy then they take form it. With the title of
illegal or unauthorized does not allow they induvial to collect all government assisted programs.
However, they are allowed into public school around the United States, which gives children to
the age of 18 years old a good formal education. Deporting undocumented immigrants is very
costly to the state and federal government
Conclusion - Illegal immigration in the united states will affect people in different ways based on past
experiences and decisions. However, understanding different points of view and background stories will
help you better realize the importance and positive impact on people.
