In a recent interview, President Barack
Obama said he can’t just “wave away the laws that Congress put in place” and
that “the president doesn’t have the authority to simply ignore Congress and
say, ‘We’re not going to enforce the laws that you’ve passed.’”
But that is exactly what the president has done — ignored our immigration
laws. Throughout the three years of his administration, Obama has waived
applying several of our immigration rules and has refused to enforce other
immigration laws.
Last month, Obama administration
officials at the Department of Homeland Security outlined their plan to ignore
a rule that requires illegal immigrants to leave the United States before they
can ask the federal government to waive a law that bans them from legally returning
here for several years.
While the waiver of this rule is
sometimes allowed under current law, it is only applied on a case-by-case
basis, not to entire categories of illegal immigrants. But Obama and his
administration are bending these long-established rules by applying them to
potentially millions of illegal immigrants.
And this proposal comes on the heels of
an even larger plan to reward illegal immigrants. Last year, political
appointees at DHS issued new deportation guidelines that amount to back-door
amnesty for illegal immigrants and strike another blow at the 13 million
unemployed American workers.
Under Obama’s deportation policy, DHS
officials review all incoming and most pending cases before an immigration
court to determine whether the illegal immigrant can remain in the United
States. Because DHS political appointees have made it clear that many illegal
immigrants are not considered “priorities” for removal, this means that
potentially millions of illegal immigrants can remain here without a vote of
Congress.
These changes made to our deportation
policy could also allow illegal immigrants to receive a work permit and could
put even more U.S. citizens on the unemployment rolls. In fact, when illegal
immigrants are allowed to stay and apply for work authorization, the Obama
administration grants it 90 percent of the time.
The president also routinely neglects
to enforce our immigration laws. His administration has all but abandoned
work-site enforcement efforts. During the past three years, work-site
enforcement efforts fell 70 percent.
Under the Obama administration, there
have been fewer arrests of illegal workers, fewer criminal arrests, fewer
indictments and fewer convictions. As a result, 7 million illegal immigrants
continue to work in the United States, forcing unemployed American workers to
compete with them for scarce jobs.
In addition, the Obama administration
sues states that try to help enforce federal immigration laws. The
administration has filed suit against Arizona, Alabama and South Carolina for
their laws designed to reduce illegal immigration and protect American workers.
At the same time, the Obama
administration looks the other way when states and localities undermine federal
immigration laws. The administration has ignored efforts by Illinois,
Massachusetts and New York to stop participating in Secure Communities, a
program that keeps our neighborhoods safe by identifying illegal and criminal
immigrants in police custody who have been arrested and fingerprinted.
The administration has also refused to
penalize “sanctuary” cities that blatantly defy federal immigration laws and
release criminal immigrants onto our streets and into our communities.
Talk is cheap, and actions speak louder
than words. The president’s actions speak volumes about his intent to reward
those who have broken our immigration laws.

OBAMA WAS BOUGHT INTO OFFICE WITH THE LOOTING OF HIS
CRIMINAL BANKSTER DONORS!
IT WAS LA RAZA MEXICAN FASCIST PARTY THAT VOTED HIM THERE!
WE GET THE TAX BILLS FOR THE MEXICAN OCCUPATION, WELFARE
STATE, AS LA RAZA GETS OUR JOBS.
IT WILL TAKE US A CENTURY TO PAY OFF WHAT ONE MAN, BARACK
OBAMA HAS DONE FOR HIS BANKSTERS, LA RAZA AND THE WARS TO PROTECT SAUDI
BOARDERS AS HE LEAVES OUR OPEN AND UNDEFENDED!
Records show that four
out of Obama's top five contributors are employees of financial industry giants
- Goldman Sachs ($571,330), UBS AG ($364,806), JPMorgan Chase ($362,207) and
Citigroup ($358,054).
The terms of the agreement
are entirely favorable to the banks, while doing little or nothing to aid the
millions of people who have been devastated by the collapse of the US housing
market.
UNFETTERED IMMIGRATION MEANS POVERTY FOR AMERICANS… AND THEN
WE GET THE BILLS TO PAY FOR THE LA RAZA WELFARE STATE!
