Few were as excited about Election Day as Moises Herrera. He did not run for office. He cannot even vote. But reaching Tuesdays election, he hopes, will set in motion actions that will allow him to stay in the country.
Its the great hope, Herrera, a 36-year-old father of four, said in an interview on Election Day, days after immigration officials released him. There are many, many people in that jail, and they are waiting for that day.
In Massachusetts, Herrera was at constant risk of deportation. In 2011, after a traffic stop in Everett, he was jailed and deported, but he returned to the state within weeks.
Nobody ever charged him. Instead, immigration officials detained Herrera for more than two weeks, through the birth of his son, and released him after he hired a lawyer and the Globe inquired about his case.
On Wednesday, Obama said he would not wait for Congress to pass a comprehensive immigration bill to deal with the nations 11 million illegal immigrants and declared that he would take action by the end of the year.

Not going to happen but if it does Obama should be impeached.
It’s worse than that:
“In October, immigration officials jailed him again after another traffic stop. Police said Herrera ran a light and gave a false first name and birth date and was driving without a license. A district court judge dismissed the charges and Immigration and Customs Enforcement took him into custody. Herrera matched ICEs priorities because he returned to the US after being deported, a federal crime.
Nobody ever charged him.”
Americans are not eager for Amnesty,they want laws enforced
And the GOP-e leadership has already capitulated.
You know one would really think the African American population would be up in arms about this. They think they have a difficult time with employment, housing and getting ahead well they ain’t seen anything. Bring in millions of additional job seekers and it will only exacerbate an already existing problem within the black community.
They are screaming about raising the minimum wage. More workers will drive wages down.
Best of luck to you! Hope it goes smoothly. Congratulations.
This criminal is a sympathetic figure to those on the far left. Sadly, if they turn America into their image of what our country ought to be, no one will want to come here and those who belong here will not want to stay.
Citizens adamantly opposed.
Americans first!
