Senator Letter #40

Dear Senator:

My name is Katherine Lara and I go to Frank Borman Middle School. My teacher Mr. Spencer that's a social study teacher wanted us to have an opportunity to write you a letter about a law. Us as students had to come up with a law that we would like for you to see and read. I decided that my law was going to involve social security. You may think that I may not know that much about it, but I know just a little bit and just by knowing that makers me think all confused about it. The thing that I'm confused about it is that why do only people with papers have it? Why not immigrants.

Have you ever tough about giving social security for everyone, or for the people that need it? As you could see people need social security for them selves or for there family members. They may probably need it because they need health care to go and check himself or herself in the doctor. The problem that people have with the social security is that sometimes when they need to use the doctor, they can't because to see the doctor you need social security. This law would change in every certain way. The senator would give social security for the people that need it and not just give it away for everyone.

Social Security has been an issue for immigrants because of their health care. People may think that Social Security isn't a big of a deal. They may say that because they do have the card, but they need to imagine and see who does it feels for them to be in an immigrant's place. It isn’t that easy. When they want to get a job or get interviewed they need to show there social security, some jobs ask for it, but some don’t. The jobs that probably don't ask for it, are the ones that pay little bit of money, and the ones that do are the ones that you need to have social security and if you don't you won't get the job. When they don't get the job they don't know where to get the money to feed there families and that's really sad.

What would be great for you to do is for you to just try to give out social security and just see how it goes. That would be really great and awesome. I would like for you the senator to read my letter and think about this law. If this law gets to be accepted I think that all the immigrants would get a decent job. We wouldn't see them no more in Home Depot trying to look for a job. Instead they would in there first day of there new job. Just imagine the change that would make for all of us. I mean for all the immigrants with out social security.

The problem that people will get about the social security would probably be that they would be like,” Know that we got social security we could what ever we want”. That would be the bad part about it. The immigrants should be happy and thankful if you give out the social security. It would change many lives for families. In the way that it would change is that the parents would have a good and job and they wouldn't have to worry no more about what if they don't have money for there food or for there shelter.

Sincerely:



Katherine Lara
