Taking notes on slide presentation





Today in class, Mr. Schick had us take notes on the slide presentation. Some of the notes I took were on 'Controlling Migration', and 'Unauthorized Immigration'. The first set of notes was on 'Controlling Migration'. Countries have adopted selective immigration policies. Preference shown for specific employment placement and family reunification. Passing the Quota Act in 1921 and the National Orgins Act in 1924 by the U.S congress marked the end of unrestricted immigration to the U.S. More people seek admission to the U.S than is permitted by the quotas, thus preferences are shown toward: Family reunification, Skilled workers, and Diversity. The next topic of notes is on 'Unauthorized Immigration'. Unauthorized immigrants are those who enter a country without proper documents. Characteristics of unauthorized immigrants in the U.S are Source of a country, and Children. Years in the United States, duration of residency has increased for unauthorized immigrants. In 2010, 35% of adults had been in the U.S for at least 15 years. Labor Force. Approximatley 8 million unauthorized immigrants are employed in the U.S. Distribution. Texas and California have the largest number of unauthorized immigrants. That is mostly all I took notes on in class today.
