Synopsis

Immigration is a hot topic in the United States. What kind of immigration should be allowed? How should immigrants who have come into the United States illegally be treated? What about the DREAMers? Refugees seeking asylum? Will building a border wall keep out illegal immigrants and stop the flow of drugs into the U.S.? Might improving technology offer a better answer? Students will learn about the issues surrounding immigration and border security while discovering how they can get involved in helping to find a solution.
