...Summary: Planning to protect 4.4 million undocumented immigrants from deportation, president Obama exercises his executive order right to make changes in immigration policy. The new immigration plan will not only protect many unlawful immigrants from being deported but it also gains them access in obtaining driver licenses and social security cards. In another word, they will be legally to work in United States but it offers no path to citizenship. This will open a path for many high skilled workers to the United States labor force. Another major change is that Obama’s action will end a program called Secure Communities, therefore Immigration and Custom Enforcement as well as other law enforcement agencies will begin to priority their focus on criminals and felons rather than working families and security on the border will be increased. While many Americans think this is a righteous move that should have been done long ago to fix our broken immigration policy, the plan is opposed strongly by the Republicans. President Obama has no option but to use his executive action. House Speaker John Boehner states that the president is acting like a king or emperor with his executive action on the new immigration reform. The plan is also facing lawsuit from many different states, but Obama administration believes that the policies could withstand any lawsuit. Obama says in his speech, “The actions I’m taking are not only lawful; they’re the kind of actions taken by every single Republican...

...The first immigration-related legislation in the United States was the 1790 Naturalization Act, which allowed "free white persons" who had lived in the United States for at least two years to apply for citizenship. Later on in 1798 the Alien and Sedition Act increased the residency period to 14 years, along with allowing the president to deport aliens considered dangerous to the peace and safety of the United States. It wasn’t until 1965 that the next major immigration change took place. The Immigration and Nationality Act, signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson, threw out the racist quota system. Sitting at the feet of the Statue of Liberty, Johnson said that U.S. immigration policy “has been twisted and has been distorted by the harsh injustice of the national origins quota system.” The old law, he added, was “un-American,” and he promised “that it will never again shadow the gate … with the twin barriers of prejudice and privilege. The new law dramatically changed whom the United States welcomed. It opened, for the first time, large-scale immigration from the Americas. Numerical limits still applied, but this law gave preference based on skills and...

...Immigration Reform Eddie Ewing Texas Southern University Graduate School AJ 500: Seminar in Administration of Justice Spring 2015 Introduction Immigration reform Immigration policy affects all aspects of society. Regardless of status, immigrants have always played a central role in the life and growth of our nation. Immigrants contribute $10 billion a year to this country's economic growth. The immigration debate is packed with ideology and misconceptions and the process of achieving citizenship has become cumbersome and bureaucratic (Cohen). In June 2012, President Obama announced that the federal government would no longer deport undocumented youths who immigrated to the United States before the age of sixteen and are younger than thirty, have been in the country for five continuous years, and have no criminal history. Under the policy, these immigrants would be eligible for two-year work permits that have no limits on how many times they can be renewed. In 2013, a bipartisan group of senators released a comprehensive immigration reform plan that would allow those who immigrated illegally as children to apply for permanent residence in five years, regardless of their current age (Lee). Measures have been taken at the state level to regarding immigration matters, however due to federal politics immigration remains a major reform issue that needs immediate intervention. From current reform, immigration enforcement, and proposed legislature, the need for immigration...

...Labor consists of multiple laws to ensure that workers are treated fairly and know their rights. These laws established by the Department of Labor protect people from harm in the workplace due to hazardous material or substances, their entitlement to pay and overtime along with hours that may be worked by children under the age of 18. Workers compensation act protects employees injured on the job or suffering a long-term illness due to the exposure of radiation or other chemicals. This act ensures their medical benefits and their right to proper treatment. The list of Acts supported by the Department of Labor goes on and on. Many employees that feel these Acts didn’t protect them have the right to file a lawsuit and gain compensation. ("Summary Of The Major Laws Of The Department Of Labor", n.d.)

...Illegal Immigration and California COM 220 Illegal Immigration and California Everyone has an opinion on the immigration crisis gripping the nation. From border security restructuring to a complete overhaul of the system, anyone in this country has an idea to handle the ordeal. In preparing for this paper, this author spoke to family and friends for their opinions. One relative suggested the United States ratify Mexico as the 51st State, leaving the seated president in power as governor, turning each state into a county with the respective governors retitled as mayors. The working theory holds that the United States could then intervene and lend aid to the more impoverished areas of the newly formed state. Resulting from this, illegal Mexican immigration becomes a nonissue, Mexican citizens see improved living conditions within a few short years, and the United States gains a large tax-paying citizenship. Admittedly, without benefit of research or a visit to the country, this family member’s theory consists of stereotype and over-generalization. Even so, it illustrates the point. With unemployment rates soaring, and the economy in a tailspin, many blame illegal immigration for current turmoil, and many theories abound. California If considered as an independent nation, California would rank among the world’s 10 largest economies (Hutchinson Encyclopedia, California, 2009). From rural to metropolis; from dry desert to lush forest to sand beaches; from unemployed...

Starting from single scenarios for fertility, mortality and economic activity, three sets of assumptions are explored regarding migration flows, taking into account probable policy developments in Europe following the enlargement of the EU. In addition to age structures, various support ratio indicators are analysed. The results indicate that plausible immigration cannot offset the negative effects of population and labour force ageing.

...The urban in fragile, uncertain, neoliberal times: towards new geographies of social justice? R. ALAN WALKS Department of Geography, University of Toronto Mississauga, Mississauga, Ontario, Cananda L5L 1C6 (e-mail: alan.walks@utoronto.ca) Canadian cities are at a crossroads. The neoliberalization of governance at multiple scales, inadequate re-investment in urban infrastructure, increasing reliance on continental and international trade, and the restructuring of the space economy have combined to weaken Canada’s cities just as the global economic system is undergoing transformation. Canadian urban geographic scholarship has much to offer under current conditions, and is already making significant contributions in key areas. In particular, research on what might be called the contours and impacts of urban restructuring and the neoliberal city, immigration and cities of difference, and urban environmental justice show much promise and are likely to define the core of Canadian urban geography into the future. Key words: cities, urban geography, Canada, economic restructuring, neoliberalism, social justice L’urbain ` une ´poque fragile, incertaine et a e n´olib´rale: vers de nouvelles g´ographies de la e e e justice sociale? ` Les villes canadiennes sont a la crois´e des chemins. e Alors que l’´conomie mondiale traverse une p´riode e e de transformation, la situation des villes au Canada se pr´carise avec les effets de la restructuration e ` n´olib´rale de la gouvernance a multiples...

...The Goal of this summary is to provide Riordan Manufacturing the ability to facilitate business needs for the four divisions within Riordan Manufacturing; Finance and Accounting, Internet Site, Sales and Marketing, Human Resources and Legal, and Operations. Finance and Accounting Presently, all four locations use finance and accounting systems to collect, analyze and generate financial data for the company’s sales and revenue reports. This requires the company to manually generate reports, re-enter data and convert this data to compatible formats for the corporate headquarters to process. Each manufacturing entity uses similar subsystems such as procurement, order entry, invoice and shipping. The invoice subsystem will need to interface with the accounts receivable component. These systems feed into the sales and purchasing history, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The procurement, accounts payable and accounts receivable then are provided to the general ledger. Payroll is a separate subsystem that connects to the general ledger. Procurement is the obtaining of the necessary raw materials and supplies and this system needs to keep track of what is on order and in house. The order entry system records all of the customer’s orders. Order entry then provides data to the invoice system for correct billing. Accounts payable keeps tabs on making payments obtained via the procurement system while accounts receivable records customer payments on their invoices. The general...
