NAPOLITANO DHS - OBAMA'S WELCOME WAGON FOR HORDES of ILLEGALS

http://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2013/01/la-raza-napolitano-mexicos-and-obamas.html

OBAMA HAS SQUANDERED BILLIONS PROTECTING THE BORDERS OF MUSLIM DICTATORS OVER THERE, WHILE SABOTAGING HOMELAND SECURITY TO EASE MORE MEXICANS INTO OUR COUNTRY, JOBS AND VOTING BOOTHS.

THERE IS A REASON WHY THE MEX DRUG CARTELS ENDORSED OBAMA!

UNDER NAPOLITANO, DHS IS NOW THE DEPT. of HOMELAND SECURITY = PATHWAY TO CITIZENSHIP AND SOME AMERICAN’S JOB.

Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano:

According a Gallup Poll, a full 62 per cent of the American people believe that stopping illegal immigration should be a top priority of the U.S. government. Unfortunately for the American people, Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano is not numbered among that 62%. And she is the person who is supposed to be enforcing the law. Last year, Napolitano opened the floodgates of illegal immigration by having the Department of Homeland Security review all cases then before the immigration courts with an eye towards halting the deportation of many illegal immigrants allegedly with no criminal backgrounds. (JW uncovered records demonstrating this to be an utter lie. Many of the illegals let off the hook were convicted of violent crimes.)

Not satisfied with skirting the law in 2011, Napolitano decided to abandon it altogether in 2012. Accordingly, on June 15, 2012, she announced: "By this memorandum, I am setting forth how, in the exercise of our prosecutorial discretion, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) should enforce the Nation's immigration laws against certain young people who were brought to this country as children and know only this country as home."

In short, this amounted to blanket "temporary" amnesty for illegals under the age of 30. With her single statement, she simply declared upwards of one million illegal aliens entirely legal. Just like that. No legislation. No debate. No votes. No court rulings. The Constitution of the United States notwithstanding. And, in so doing, she violated the Oath of Office she had taken when sworn in as secretary of Homeland Security on January 21, 2009: "I, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."

Illegal immigrants in Colorado seize upon new visa waiver By Nancy Lofholm The Denver Post The Denver Post Posted:

Alejandro Esparza texted his wife a smiley face Wednesday.

The occasion for the momentous digital grin was a small change in a convoluted immigration regulation. On paper, that change may seem like an insignificant reform, but for American families of certain illegal immigrants such as Esparza, it represents a new opportunity to obtain a green card without tearing loved ones apart.

Under the old rules, Esparza, who entered the United States illegally when he was 15 years old, would have had to return to his home country of Mexico to apply for a waiver from being barred re-entry to the United States. The waiver would be based on the hardship his absence would create for his wife in Denver.

That process could drag on for months or years — and it came with a great risk. If Esparza, now 27, was turned down for the waiver, he would be barred from returning to the United States for three to 10 years because he had entered the country illegally.

The changed regulation, announced last week by Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, makes it possible to apply for the waiver without leaving the country. Immigrants still have to return to a home country to complete the process and pick up a visa, but they can go with the waiver in hand and the prospect that they will be away for weeks, not months or years.

"This is really, really, really good news for us, said Esparza's wife, Magdalena Mendoza.

It is so good the family is now viewing the necessary trip back to Mexico as a vacation rather than an anxiety-provoking separation. Mendoza and their three daughters will accompany Esparza on the journey to complete what she calls "the procedure."

When they return, they will still have their home and jobs. Their girls can continue in their schools.

All of that could have been lost under the old regulations, which American Immigration Lawyers Association president Laura Lichter calls "downright dangerous."

"This is a really good interim solution to a problem that we shouldn't have anyway," Lichter said of the change to the waiver regulation.

There is no estimate of how many illegal immigrants will be eligible for the new waivers, which will open for applications March 4. Lichter, who practices immigration law in Denver, said she has hundreds of clients who will be able to take advantage of it.

To qualify, illegal immigrants must have a citizen spouse or be under 21 and have citizen parents in the United States. There must be proof that the citizen family members would face extreme hardship due to the absence of the immigrant.

Many, including Cesar Lopez of the Vail area, had been waiting for this change since it was promised last spring as a step to keep families together in the absence of comprehensive immigration reform.

Lopez has been married to a citizen for five years and has two toddlers — one with a chronic medical problem and another ready to enter kindergarten.

If he had to be away in Mexico for an extended time, his wife, Rosa Martinez, said she didn't know how she would have survived as the sole parent, breadwinner and part-time college student.

"I was really scared because it would be a horrible thing if he was gone," she said.

Moving the whole family to Mexico was a feared option because of the crime and poverty rates there and the fact that the elementary schools are behind U.S. schools, Martinez said.

The relief some families of illegal immigrants are feeling with the new rules is tempered by what immigration lawyers and immigrant advocates are calling deficiencies in the change.

Adult undocumented children of U.S. citizens are not eligible for the hardship waivers even though they might be important caregivers for parents. Brothers and sisters and other immediate relatives are also not eligible.

"We are disappointed that the rules change does not apply to spouses of legal permanent residents and adult children of U.S. citizens, as they are often the caregivers. We hope that, as the changes are implemented, the administration will see the wisdom in expanding the hardship waivers to these critical family members," said Eliseo Medina of Service Employees International Union.

Lichter was also disappointed there is no provision in the new rules to help families that can't pay the $585 filing fee.

She said she will continue to warn her clients that the new rules do not come with any full guarantee.

"There are still risks. Nothing is ever 100 percent guaranteed," she said. "This is just a way of removing one of the nonsensical roadblocks."

Is Illegal Immigration Moral?

By Victor Davis Hanson

11/25/2010

 

We know illegal immigration is no longer really unlawful, but is it moral?

Usually Americans debate the fiscal costs of illegal immigration. Supporters of open borders rightly remind us that illegal immigrants pay sales taxes. Often their payroll-tax contributions are not later tapped by Social Security payouts.

Opponents counter that illegal immigrants are more likely to end up on state assistance, are less likely to report cash income, and cost the state more through the duplicate issuing of services and documents in both English and Spanish. Such to-and-fro talking points are endless.

So is the debate over beneficiaries of illegal immigration. Are profit-minded employers villains who want cheap labor in lieu of hiring more expensive Americans? Or is the culprit a cynical Mexican government that counts on billions of dollars in remittances from its expatriate poor that it otherwise ignored?
