![]() Impact of the new laws over immigrant people in the United StatesA Story by Ricky Bonilla R![]() This is a behavior that I have observed in the previous months in the US, and as someone with family members in this country, I wanted to give my point of view about this current situation.![]() In recent years, the United States has
introduced several new laws and policies that have significantly impacted
immigrants. These changes have affected various aspects of their lives,
including their legal status, access to services, and overall well-being. As someone who has some family members
in the US, this is something that worries me as I will always want the best for
them, and of course, I wouldn’t like them to go through a process like this. One
of the major changes I noticed is the stricter enforcement of immigration laws.
This has led to an increase in deportations and detentions, causing fear and
uncertainty among immigrant communities. Many families have been separated, and
individuals live in constant fear of being detained or deported. As I am often talking with my family
members located in the US, they mentioned that a significant change is the
tightening of asylum policies. According to them, the new laws have made it
more difficult for people fleeing persecution to seek refuge in the United
States. As a result, many asylum seekers are left in limbo, waiting for their
cases to be processed while living in difficult conditions. I must say they are
not going through this situation at this moment, but they have seen plenty of
people who unfortunately are suffering the consequences of this. The new laws have also affected
immigrants' access to public services. Some policies have restricted access to
healthcare, education, and social services for undocumented immigrants. This
has made it challenging for them to receive the support they need to thrive in
their new environment. Despite these challenges, immigrants
continue to contribute positively to the United States. They bring diverse
skills, cultures, and perspectives that enrich American society. Just to give
an example, some of these days, I was using the social media, and I found out
some live streams on TikTok from Latin American people creating content from what
they do at the US, and I can firmly say that, all they are doing is great, safe
and even, they have started creating content which encourages others to look
for a job and try to have a decent life at the US. Nonetheless, the new laws have
created an environment of fear and uncertainty, making it harder for immigrants
to fully integrate and contribute to their communities. With that been said, I do not want to
say that having strict laws is something bad because I know that, not all immigrants are trying to have a decent life, and they are just trying to
harm or take advantage of the benefits of living in this country, so I
understand that it’s difficult to filter out who is doing great, and who is not
doing the right things, but there should be a way to not affect
people who is only working hard to help their communities and families. In conclusion, the new laws in the
United States have had a big impact on immigrants. While they face increased
challenges and uncertainties, their resilience and contributions to society
remain invaluable. It is essential to recognize and address the difficulties
they face to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all. © 2025 Ricky Bonilla RReviews
