The majority of undocumented Irish young people living illegally in America come from Fermanagh and Tyrone, the Assembly had been told.
But new President Barack Obama intends to tackle the problem, according to Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness.
Reporting on his recent week-long trip to the US, Mr McGuinness said the issue came up constantly.
There is an estimated 2,500 to 3,000 illegal Irish in the US, with the majority coming from Fermanagh and Tyrone.
Mr McGuinness said: The issue of the undocumented Irish came up consistently and persistently at many of the engagements in which we were involved.
There is no doubt that it is a matter with which the new Administration will grapple.
It is something that we would like to see resolved, because of the obvious pain and difficulty that it imposes, not just on people in the United States whether from Derry, Fermanagh, Tyrone, Belfast, Dublin, Mayo or Kerry but also because family difficulties occur, such as people dying, the deputy First Minister added.
Hopefully, the new Administration will find a solution sooner rather than later.
"But new President Barack Obama intends to tackle the problem, according to Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness."
Barry's gonna focus on deporting those 3,000 illegals from Ireland while he turns a blind eye to the MILLIONS of illegals from Mexico.
Another case of "get whitey."
please tell thats another joke??
Another case of “get whitey.”
You can only thank your parents and grandparents that did nothing as the gov grew to this level of destruction.
Oh no foolish mortal. The messiah is going to piggyback those tens of millions of illegals from other countries on the back of the Irish in the name of "compassion."
Obama hates white people
Gonna keep them icebacks from Canada out too.
But his illegal Kenyan aunt can stay.
Tackling the problem means giving the illegal Irish amnesty just like plans with all the other illegals from every corner of the world.
Of course, my Dublin born wife disagrees with this given that she had to wait and pay (partially with my money!) before getting her Green (really pink) Card.
Ha! That's how many you find in the bars of Southie and Dorchester on Saturday night.
All, while the Somali youth zip back and forth from Minneapolis to Somalia, getting tuned up for terror in America.......
Ireland ping!
I’m calling BS on those numbers. They’re *illegal* fer cryin out loud. “Hey, kid, I see your student visa expired in 2005. Where you from?”
“Icebacks” That’s funny right there, I don’t care who you are.
I forgot Barry is Irish.
Why does he want to throw out his illegal WHITE relatives and allow his illegal BLACK Aunt Zeituni to stay?
Yeah, those Irish gangs numbering in the hundreds are a real threat, not like MS 13 and the other muchachos.
I hope those Irish American Democrats who keep voting imbicles like Ted Kennedy and John Kerry into office FINALLY WAKE UP!!!!!!
Anfglo-America is NOT King James I or Cromwell!!!
Its THEM and the REST of us!!!!
That was my reaction. So...we are being overwhelmed by the Irish?
Just curious....will these people have to show a birth certificate to determine citizenship?
Half of America is still waiting to see Barry's COLB.
Because Aunt Zeituni knows where he was really born.
Oh yeah it’s bad. Icebacks hing out in the parking lot at Officemax and Staples offering to reformat computers and input data. They speak that strange language and you can’t go into the store without hearing somebody say “eh?”. Next thing you know everything will be printed in English, Spanish, and French.
And he’s starting w/the ‘whitest’.
