Is It Possible To Stop
Illegals From Crossing
The Border?

2. Introduction
Pat Paulson- “All the problems in
the U.S. today can be traced to
illegal immigrants.”
There are 11 million illegal
immigrants in the U.S. today

3. How do the Border Patrol
find the illegal immigrants?
Heat signature detecting
equipment
Security cameras
The equipment costs hundreds
of thousands of dollars

4. Can we get illegal
immigrants to come out of
hiding?
Yes, but no permanent solution has
been made
Amnesty is the temporary solution,
which allows illegals to get citizenship
If they came out of hiding, they would
have to pay a fine, study English, and
clear up taxes

5. Will the Amnesty Plan
Work?
The outcome right now is still
unclear
Most illegals think it’s a scam
Since so many illegals go for
amnesty, the fine they have to pay
has gone up 14% in the last 5 years

6. Why do Illegal Immigrants
Cross the Border?
To support families
To have their children in U.S.
hospitals so they will be citizens
To visit loved ones
Based on the 2008 census, 35% of
illegal immigrants are pregnant
women

7. What is Illegal Immigration?
When non-Americans cross the
border without visas or
permission
Applying and getting a
permanent visa can take years
