F3
I believe that a major issue in the United States that needs to be reformed is the immigration process. Every year, millions of immigrants manage to sneak into the country to find jobs and are deported. Families are separated and the illegal immigrants go back to a life where there are few opportunities. Those who sign up legally to become citizens of the United States are on a waiting list for a few years, even decades. This current system needs to be changed so that the process is not as arduous and more open for people. Not everybody can get in, obviously, there need to be limits, such as no criminals. Although I may have expressed sympathy for those who get into the US illegally, I don't think they should have much of a chance to get in legally since they had committed a crime, that doesn't mean they won't have any chance at all though. The new process should involve temporary visas that last no more than ten years, they should be issued out to some thousands of people every year. If after ten years these immigrants have had no criminal record or interference with law enforcement (small crimes such as speeding etc. not included), they should be allowed to apply for citizenship, otherwise they must go back to their countries. Those who comply with these conditions show that they truly want to be citizens and should get that chance. (I need to add more conditions obviously but it's all I got so far.)
