In a Room for Debate about sanctuary cities they debate whether or not sanctuary cities should be allowed to exist. Sanctuary cities are cities where undocumented immigrants can go to feel safer because immigration laws are not greatly enforced.
Sanctuary cities should be allowed to exist because the majority of immigrants are not always people who are committing crimes like the people the president enjoys to talk about, and most people people just want to be successful. Do not most of us just want to find happiness, and isn't that the ultimate goal? Aren't the people in the United States all for the pursuit of happiness, and the American dream where you come to America with nothing but the clothes on your back and a hard work ethic to make it in the big world? Everyone deserves their shot at a better life, and should be allowed to take it. Don't we all deserve the opportunity to be successful? Do you think that sanctuary cities should be allowed?

I think that these sanctuary cities should exist. Many people that come to the US illegally only want a better life. My dad came to the United States illegally and he got a job here. He wanted a better life and he was able to raise my family here. While there are a few people who come to commit crimes most of the immigrants are just here to make a better life for their families or to study a career. These sanctuary cities should continue to exist.
