4. Unit 2. 20 -Should there be amnesty for undocumented immigrants
Unit Should there be amnesty for undocumented immigrants? Can I have a volunteer to read the passage below?
Professor Kahn’s class is debating an immigration amnesty. Cesar and his family are undocumented immigrants. Cesar has the highest GPA in the class.
“I can’t afford college,” says Cesar. “College grants and loans are oriented toward American citizens. People like me get excluded. What kind of career can I have? I don’t have papers. Having no college education will compound my problems. I’ll probably get stuck in a low-paying job. With an amnesty, I can get a better education and a better job.”
“You’re assuming an amnesty would lead to a better job,” says Takemi. “You can’t predict the future!”
“We can’t predict the future, but we can look at what happened in the past,” says Professor Seemy. “Let’s investigate!”
