Introduktion
Greetings, ladies and gentlemen. I'm Sofie Poulsen, currently pursuing my studies in American culture and history at Boston University in Massachusetts. I'm truly grateful to be here today to offer my perspective on the ongoing immigration debate in the United States.

I hope you'll find my insights engaging and thought-provoking. But before we dive in, I'd like to start with a quick poll.

Could those of you who believe immigrants should refrain from coming to our country, even in times of economic struggle, kindly raise your hands?

Thank you for your participation. It's evident that this viewpoint represents a minority in this gathering, aligning with the growing trend of immigration in the United States, a topic I'll delve into shortly.

Lastly, let's discuss the pros and cons of President Trump and The White House's stance on immigration. On one hand, their actions could potentially hinder economic growth both now and in the future.

Moreover, immigrants might feel unwelcome due to the President's discouraging tone, which could pose a problem for the United States as a whole.

On the other hand, there is a recognition that the administration aims to uphold the rule of law and protect the American family. However, it's crucial to recognize that immigrants are also part of that family. Do you concur?

As I conclude my speech, allow me to briefly summarize the key points. As I mentioned earlier, the United States is home to a substantial immigrant population, and research consistently highlights their positive impact on the nation's economy.

Astonishingly, the Trump administration appears intent on changing this dynamic, all in the name of preserving the American family, even if it means potentially jeopardizing economic prosperity.
