Immigration Laws Immigration Laws The current laws regulating foreign workers were established over 25 years ago. However, due to the global changes in migration patterns and the increasing demand for qualified workers, there is a need to reform these regulations to match the modern time. According to various prominent personnel, there is a lack of STEM workers in the country (Hira & Stephan, 2014). Nonetheless, evidence proves that STEM graduates of the American origin are taking up other careers due to the unattractive wages in their designed field.
The solution for the STEM career is to reform our laws and policies and not importing new taskforce that offers similar work at a cheaper price.The current immigration laws are ineffective and unfair based on the interests of the American citizens. The laws should be amended, and the importation of qualified immigrants be suspended to give room for the absorption of the American graduates. Since there is adequate STEM graduate, it is imperative for the government to improve the compensation and allowances to attract these individuals (Hira & Stephan, 2014).
The emphasis on cheaper labour from immigrants hinders the prospect of personal development as Americans face stiff competition in the workforce. For these reasons, there is a need to amend the Immigration Reform and Control Act should complicate the employment of foreigners. Notably, the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement should be keen to identify illegal workers. Additionally, the penalty policy should be increased such that it scares the employers from hiring illegal immigrants. Finally, the Immigration Act should make it difficult for foreigners to access the I-551 Alien Registration Receipt and the H-1B visa program.
