New Sanctuary Movement Event

The New Sanctuary Movement Event Meeting was very informative. The main speaker was very knowledgeable and seemed to have the right plan to fix the immigration situation. The pastor that spoke seemed less knowledgeable about immigration. He kept comparing immigration or the New Sanctuary Movement to the Nazis, which kept confusing me because they are unrelated topics.

I feel that the immigration problem cannot be fixed by a wall between Mexico and the United States. People will still find a way around the wall. The government needs to make more visas and set up a system to make it easy for people to be documented citizens. The United States also has to put special interest into Mexico and help the country, like we are in Iraq, to help purify their corrupt system and help increase and stabilize their economy. The money used to build the wall could instead could be used to help Mexico's economy. One Mexico's economy is set, it will be a nicer place to live and there would not be as great as a need to immigrate to another country.
