Example: The following paragraph (answer) illustrates how you should complete this
exercise.
Major Claim: Illegal immigrant workers should be granted legal status.
Answer:
(1 MC) Illegal immigrant workers should be granted legal status. (2 – MSC) In Illegal
Workers Should be Granted Legal Status, George Bush states that the main reason America
became a powerful nation in the twentieth century is because it welcomed the talent, power, and
patriotism of immigrant families (554). (3 MSC) Because we are a nation founded and inspired
by immigrants, we should acknowledge the contributions made by working immigrants who
contribute to our economy by accepting them as part of our country instead of pushing them out.
(4 MSC) Bush writes, Out of common sense and fairness, our laws should allow willing
workers to enter our country and fill jobs that Americans are not filling. We must make our
immigration laws more rational, and more humane (Connelly 556).
