America’s immigration system is broken. The President is taking executive action to fix what he can to help build a system that lives up to our heritage as a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants.

Share the Facts

Our immigration system has been broken for decades. And every day we wait to act, millions of undocumented immigrants are living in the shadows: Those who want to pay taxes and play by the same rules as everyone else have no way to live right by the law. That is why President Obama is using his executive authority to address as much of the problem as he can, and why he’ll continue to work with Congress to pass comprehensive reform.

Take a look at the steps President Obama is taking to help fix our immigration system — then share the facts with everyone who needs to know:

Obama has treated his own employees worse than any President in modern history. He has cut their benefits, frozen their pay, and furloughed them, denying even a weekly paycheck. Obama promised to “donate” back part of his pay, and then lied about even that.

Lets back up and reverse engineer the narrative.

The determination that the immigration system is failed.

How did it suddenly get that way?

The accuser not enforcing the existing laws, caused the SYMPTOM and APPEARANCE that the law doesn’t work. Well, duh! The law can’t work if the the branch of govt charged with enforcing the law CHOOSES to not perform their duty.

It’s like blaming the dirty oven for getting dirty or blaming the nail and the hammer for not being driven into the 2x4.
