Social division increased under Donald Trump’s term

Former President Trump’s rhetoric regarding immigration and the gap he created between “good immigrants and bad immigrants” greatly increased discrimination and social division between the American population, primarily his followers, and immigrants currently residing in the US, both documented and undocumented.

Using terms such as “rapists and murderers” undoubtedly generates a gigantic impact among local citizens, even more so when it comes from the leader of the nation, who must ensure the national security.

However, if we take the time to investigate official figures and reliable sources, we will get to know the other side of immigration and the reality is that, when properly managed, it is extremely positive for the socioeconomic development of the US.

In fact, in one of our most recent articles, we talk about the opinion of several experts regarding the impact of Trump’s comments on immigration among local communities, even within immigrant populations, where discrimination has also grown substantially over the past four years.

President Biden issues executive order to strengthen multiracial integration

President Biden took office on January 20, 2021, after being elected by the American population in November 2020. For the Biden administration, Trump’s stance when it comes to immigration contradicts the nation’s values and hurts local companies, even though the former president used American workers as support to reduce immigration.

Therefore, to address discrimination and social division, on February 2, 2021, President Biden issued an executive order “On Restoring Faith in Our Legal Immigration Systems and Strengthening Integration and Inclusion Efforts for New Americans.”

Through this executive order, President Biden states the need to protect and improve the immigration system, understanding the importance of having the presence of foreigners in the US, who stimulate the economy and lead entrepreneurial projects, which create millions of jobs for the American population.

Adding to that, the current president declares that they “contribute to our arts, culture, and government, providing new traditions, customs, and viewpoints. They are essential workers helping to keep our economy afloat and providing important services to Americans during a global pandemic.”

Therefore, the Biden government plans to create inclusion projects for immigrant communities, accepting the responsibility of integrating essential workers into civic life, offering them alternatives to easily access local immigration benefits and removing barriers and misconceptions that increase discrimination.
