The Pros of Migration Explained. Why Migration Should Exist

Migration has been a natural and essential part of human history. People move for many reasons, and migration brings both challenges and opportunities for individuals and societies.

Here is a clear breakdown of why migration should exist and how it can be beneficial:

Demographic Support. Many wealthy countries do not have enough workers. Migration helps balance demographics, supporting pension systems and healthcare services. Many countries rely on immigrant nurses, doctors, and caregivers.

Economic Benefits. Migrants often fill labor shortages, especially in industries like healthcare, construction, agriculture, and tech. Many immigrants start businesses or contribute new ideas, helping economies grow. Also, people often move to find better jobs, escape poverty, or send money home. This helps raise living standards for families in poorer countries.

Cultural Exchange and Diversity. Migration increases cultural diversity, bringing new languages, cuisines, traditions, and ideas. Diverse societies can become more resilient, innovative, and globally connected. Studying foreign cultures and languages ​​broadens horizons and unites.

Humanitarian Reasons. People flee war, persecution, violence, or disasters. These are refugees or asylum seekers who need protection. Offering them safety is part of international human rights obligations and basic human decency. The 1951 Refugee Convention obliges countries to protect those fleeing persecution.

People should have the freedom to move in search of a better life.

Migration is not without challenges — it must be well-managed. Governments need policies to ensure integration, fair labor rights, and border security. But stopping migration completely would ignore economic realities and humanitarian needs. Migration should exist because it is natural, necessary, beneficial. It supports economies, saves lives, enriches cultures, and reflects our shared human history of movement, survival, and growth. The goal should be to make it safe, legal, and fair for everyone. Remember, we are all migrants, or our ancestors were or are.

Over Christmas, hundreds of people who entered the United States through legal channels were transported to the middle of El Paso and released to fend for themselves — exhausted, hungry, penniless, homeless and without support.

Catholic Extension has long supported Catholic ministries at the border, including those in the Diocese of El Paso, that are working around the clock to welcome and offer hospitality to migrants by providing food, shelter, comfort and advocacy.

Today more than 500 people are expected to be released in El Paso, making it the largest single-day release to date. Let’s greet them in the spirit of Lady Liberty’s message:

“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
