Former President Bush Supports the Ideal of Humanizing the Immigration System
Debate regarding immigration
Immigration has always created controversy and different opinions around the world, especially in countries with a high flow of foreigners such as the US. In fact, there is a gigantic gap among the American population that is related to immigration ideals and the way the federal government should handle this sector, especially when it comes to irregular immigration.
Yet now more than ever, there is colossal social controversy among the American public due to a surge of illegal border crossings in February, March, and the first two weeks of April. This debate clearly involves the current administration, led by President Joe Biden, but it also involves opposition groups and certain members of Congress, who disagree with Biden’s immigration policies and blame his administration for the current border situation.
At the same time, there is a part of the population and dozens of activist groups that support the Biden administration’s ideal of removing restrictive and arbitrary border policies, which were implemented by the previous administration, led by former President Donald Trump.
Being immigration such a controversial sector, the best alternative to complete your immigration process in the US is undoubtedly to have the constant accompaniment of experts, who will help and guide you every step of the way, always following legal guidelines.

Bush states immigration is an advantage for the country
Now that there is a growing controversy related to immigration, several members of the government and former officials have raised their voices and shared their opinion on how to improve the immigration system and reduce massive irregular migration from Central America.
For instance, George Bush, who was the 43rd president of the US, recently published a collection of portraits drawn by himself, which show the faces of dozens of immigrants and their stories. Through this exposition, former President Bush aims to create a more humane environment for the immigration debate, especially when it comes to comprehensive immigration overhaul.
In fact, Bush said he regrets not reforming the immigration system during his term, but hopes that his portraits impact and intervene in the current controversy so that the American population knows the real stories of immigrants and not only subjective opinions of public figures, who, on many occasions, forget to have a humanitarian approach to migrant experiences.
He openly stated, “I hope that these faces, and the stories that accompany them, serve as a reminder that immigration isn’t just a part of our heritage. New Americans are just as much a force for good now, with their energy, idealism and love of country, as they have always been.”
The former president also explains that, although the stories are quite different from each other, there is something in common among immigrant populations and it is gratitude, a feeling that is part of their immigration journey in the US. This is because many of them, if not all, would not have the same opportunities in their countries, nor could they protect their lives from precarious situations such as famine and war, and they thank the American population for welcoming them with open arms and allowing them to be part of the social fabric.
