The Obama administration on Wednesday reversed a Bush administration rule that immigrants rights groups had criticized as unfair.
Attorney General Eric Holder said he is vacating an order, issued by predecessor Michael Mukasey, which said that immigrants facing deportation do not have an automatic right to an effective lawyer.
Holder said he is also instructing the Justice Department to begin working on a new rule.
Charles Kuck, president of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, called the move "the beginning of the restoration of due process in the immigration system."
Kuck said that Holder's decision "recognizes we can't treat immigrants any differently than ourselves if we expect to receive the same benefits the Constitution provides."

EMPATHY TRUMPS THE LAW!
Step # 1 towards registering and voting Democrap in America!
A good many people are going to learn that we have always been just one election from losing our country.
“Kuck said that Holder’s decision “recognizes we can’t treat immigrants any differently than ourselves if we expect to receive the same benefits the Constitution provides.””
They are NOT IMMIGRANTS, you MAROOON! This is just more $$$ for immigration lawyers. Boy, are his buddies ever getting their payback!
WTF???????? Is he dang out of his mind to put his hand on his heart for a foreign country’s anthem?!!?
They don’t any constitutional rights not being citizens, they aren’t entitled to anything but instant deportation and to be fined for anything they might have.
One more step in the planned intentional destruction of this country.
Elections have consequences and sometimes, the “strong message” you send to the folks in the Republican Party has a tendency to swing back and take a large chunk out of the posterior you focused on when you should have been voting.
Not anymore!
The Obama Train roars full speed toward the oncoming train.
Have to see it with your own eyes to believe it. I was just sent that link by a soldier from a foreward fire base in Afghanistan,,,they are absolutely livid over there.
Not even the other people standing around are doing that (with the exception of the military guy saluting). Good Lord save us from this guy.
The IRS doesn't provide free lawyers for American citizens they target and this anti-American liar has never been bothered by that.
Who buys these psuedo-Constitutional lies anyway?
Pass this on and get it posted everywhere so people get to see it.
Amateur Hour continues at the Obambi White House.
No reason for us to have expected anything different.
