10 Things You Need to Know About Obama’s Amnesty

Yesterday,
the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) began accepting applications for
deferred action through US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). FAIR
has been closely tracking developments in President Obama’s executive amnesty
since its announcement on June 15. Below are some of the things you need to
know about the President’s unilateral changes to U.S. immigration policy.
- President
Obama’s amnesty will add nearly 2 million workers – possibly more
– to the U.S. job market. This is a negligent economic and social policy
with over 8% unemployment and half of recent young college graduates
unemployed or underemployed.
- Lax
documentation requirements to prove eligibility. DHS application instructions
explicitly state that only copies of documents will be required to
meet the eligibility criteria for amnesty including length of presence in
the U.S., education, and even identity. Also, illegal aliens will be able
to submit any and all documents they deem relevant to prove their
eligibility. Virtually any form of documentation will be accepted, from
report cards and plane tickets to mere personal correspondence.
- The
Administration is making this up as they go along. In June,
President Obama touted this policy as the “right thing to do” for some of
the best and brightest. However, it is clear that the educational,
residency and character requirements are becoming increasingly lax as more
details about the implementation of the amnesty emerge.
- No face-to-face
interview required. Most applications will be approved based only on the
documentation submitted.
- Few safeguards
against and limited consequences for filing fraudulent applications or
documents.
If DHS is actually diligent enough to identify fraud, the new amnesty
instructions merely state that the Administration “may” elect to penalize
illegal aliens by denying immigration benefits or placing them into
removal proceedings. However, since illegal aliens are only required to
submit copies – which lack identifiers of authenticity – it is unknown how
USCIS employees will be able to identify fraud in the first place.
- USCIS turns
blind eye to past illegal employment. Illegal aliens may use employment
records to show eligibility for amnesty despite the fact illegal aliens
are barred from working in the U.S. Past employers of illegal alien
applicants are not likely to face prosecution for hiring illegal aliens.
- Family of
deferred action recipients will also reap the benefits. Application instructions
explicitly state that information collected on an illegal alien will
not be used against him or her, or their “family members and guardians,”
for the purpose of immigration enforcement.
- Illegal aliens
granted work authorization can obtain Social Security cards. Illegal aliens
granted deferred action must apply for employment authorization if they
present an “economic necessity.” Once received, DHS work authorization
will allow them to apply for a Social Security Number and possibly other
benefits like driver’s licenses.
- Illegal aliens
with a criminal history DO qualify. DHS says only felony
convictions will make illegal aliens ineligible for amnesty, and even
then, convictions won’t necessarily be considered if they are expunged.
Additionally, criminal convictions in foreign countries will go undetected
and DHS will “exercise discretion” when considering juvenile records.
- USCIS doesn’t
have a great track record. Earlier this year, the DHS Inspector General found
that USCIS leadership told employees to rubber-stamp applications for
immigration benefits – including work authorization. In leaked documents to
the Associated Press, USCIS estimated that it will review 3,000
deferred action and work authorization applications daily, only increasing
the pressure to overlook possible fraud and approve benefits quickly.

“What's needed to discourage illegal immigration into
the United States has been known for years: Enforce existing law.” …..

ARTICLE BELOW:
The study, based on 2010 and 2011
census data, found that 43 percent of immigrants who have been in the U.S. at
least 20 years were using welfare benefits, a rate that is nearly twice as high
as native-born Americans and nearly 50 percent higher than recent immigrants.

“The principal beneficiaries of our current immigration policy
are affluent Americans who hire immigrants at substandard wages for low-end
work. Harvard economist George Borjas estimates that American workers lose $190
billion annually in depressed wages caused by the constant flooding of the
labor market at the low-wage end.” Christian Science Monitor

“Law enforcement and public safety
have taken a back seat to attempts to satisfy immigrant advocacy groups,” Crane
told the panel of congressmen.
“What we're seeing is our Congress
and national leadership dismantling our laws by not enforcing them. Lawlessness
becomes the norm, just like Third World corruption. Illegal aliens now have
more rights and privileges than Americans. If you are an illegal alien, you can
drive a car without a driver's license or insurance. You may obtain medical
care without paying. You may work without paying taxes. Your children enjoy
free education at the expense of taxpaying Americans.”

Slow path to progress for U.S. immigrants
43% on
welfare after 20 years
Immigrants lag behind
native-born Americans on most measures of economic well-being — even those who
have been in the U.S. the longest, according to a report from the Center for Immigration
Studies, which argues that
full assimilation is a more complex task than overcoming language or cultural
differences.
The study, which
covers all immigrants, legal and illegal, and their U.S.-born children younger
than 18, found that immigrants tend to make economic progress by most measures
the longer they live in the U.S. but lag well behind native-born Americans on
factors such as poverty, health insurance coverage and homeownership.
The study, based on 2010 and 2011
census data, found that 43 percent of immigrants who have been in the U.S. at
least 20 years were using welfare benefits, a rate that is nearly twice as high
as native-born Americans and nearly 50 percent higher than recent immigrants.
The report was
released at a time when both major presidential candidates have backed policies
that would make it easier to immigrate legally and would boost the numbers of
people coming to the U.S.
Steven A. Camarota, the center’s research director and author of the
96-page study, said it shows that questions about the pros and cons of
immigration extend well beyond the sheer numbers and touch on the broader
consequences of assimilating a population defined by tougher socioeconomic
challenges.
“Look, we know a lot
of these folks are going to be poor, we get it. But don’t tell the public it’s
all going great, which is the story line I think a lot of people want to
sell,” Mr. Camarota said. “There is progress over
time. Every measure shows improvement over time, but still, the situation does
not look like we’d like it to look, particularly for the less-educated. They
lag well behind natives even when they’ve been here for two decades, and that
is very disconcerting.”
Federal law requires
that the government deny immigrant visas to potential immigrants who are likely
to be unable to support themselves and thereby become public charges.
On Tuesday, a handful
of Republican senators wrote to the Homeland Security and State departments
asking them to explain why they don’t consider whether potential immigrants
would use many of the nearly 80 federal welfare programs when they evaluate
visa applications.
Neither department
responded to messages Tuesday seeking a response to the senators’ letter.
Expanding
legal immigration is a contentious issue for voters, the vast majority of whom
tell pollsters that they want the levels either retained or decreased.
But most politicians
want legal immigration expanded.
During his time in the U.S. Senate, Barack Obama backed
bills that would have dramatically boosted legal immigration, potentially by
hundreds of thousands a year. As president, he has called for the same thing.

“We need to provide our farms a legal
way to hire workers that they rely on, and a path for those workers to earn
legal status. And our laws should respect families following the rules —
reuniting them more quickly instead of splitting them apart,” Mr. Obama said
in a major speech on the subject in El Paso, Texas, in 2011.
His presumed
Republican challenger, Mitt Romney, in June called for increasing legal
immigration for students who study in high-tech fields and admitting unlimited
family members of those who hold green cards.“Our immigration system should help promote strong families as well — not keep them apart. Our nation benefits when moms and dads and their kids are all living together under the same roof,” Mr. Romney told the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials.
Mr. Camarota’s report took a broad look at the
immigrant population and found that immigrants are contributing to major
changes in American society, including that one-fourth of public school
students now speak languages other than English at home.
It also found that immigrants as a population lead complex economic lives that aren’t easily put into one category or another.

Immigrants made up
more than half of all farmworkers, 41 percent of taxi drivers and 48 percent of
maids and housecleaners, but they also represented about one-third of all
computer programmers and 27 percent of doctors.
The statistics varied greatly by geography. In Massachusetts, native-led households averaged $89,000 in income while immigrant households averaged $66,000.

In Virginia,
immigrant-led households averaged $93,000 in income, far outstripping native
households’ $80,000 average. Likewise, immigrant families averaged a larger tax
burden in Virginia — though they also had higher rates of use of welfare or
Medicaid.
The center found that use of public benefits varied dramatically based on where immigrants originated.
Mexicans were most likely to use means-tested benefit programs, with 57 percent, while 6 percent of those from the United Kingdom did. The rate for native-born Americans is 23 percent.
Mr. Camarota said a key dividing line is educational attainment. Immigrants who have been in the U.S. 20 years and who have bachelor’s degrees or higher make slightly more than the average native-born American. But immigrants with only high school educations make less no matter how long they have been in the U.S.

“The fact is the
less-educated in particular — they don’t do well over time,” he said. “It’s not
reasonable to expect an immigrant who comes to America with only a high school
education to close the gap with the native-born.”
Scholars debate whether the current wave of immigrants will assimilate differently from those in the 1800s and at the start of the 20th century.
George Borjas, a Harvard University professor, has argued that second-generation Americans — the children of today’s immigrants — will fall behind in wages by about 10 percent by 2030.
(THE BELOW STATS HAVE
NOTHING TO DO WITH ASSIMILATION! COME TO MEXIFORNIA WHERE 90% OF ALL SERVICE

George Borjas, a Harvard University professor, has argued that second-generation Americans — the children of today’s immigrants — will fall behind in wages by about 10 percent by 2030.
But in “Assimilation Tomorrow,” a report released in November, Dowell Myers and John Pitkin said immigrants of the 1990s eventually will attain high rates of homeownership and 71 percent will become U.S. citizens by 2030.
Those authors said
immigrants were set back by the recent recession but were still on track to
follow the same assimilation path as previous waves of immigrants.
(THE THING IS… MOST SOURCES PUT THE
NUMBER OF ILLEGALS AT 40 MILLION AND BREEDING FAST! THERE ARE 12 MILLION OF
THESE “11 MILLION” ILLEGALS IN SOUTHERN CA ALONE!)
They also said a
program to legalize the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants in the U.S.
would be critical to helping assimilation.
