Original Title:Alarmed By Planned Immigration 'Surge', Civil Rights Advocate Tells Obama Amnesty Harms Blacks Workers
A top civil rights advocate is warning President Obama that extending executive amnesty to millions of illegal aliens will deeply harm black workers. Peter Kirsanow, as U.S. Civil Rights Commissioner, says in a Oct. 27 letter to Obama and the Congressional Black Caucus that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services' recently revealed preparations for a huge ID "surge" extended his alarm over what the president has planned.
“Granting work authorization to millions of illegal immigrants will devastate the black community, which is already struggling in the wake of the recession that began in 2007 and the subsequent years of malaise,” he explained.
"Illegal immigration has a disparate impact on African-American men because these men are disproportionately represented in the low-skilled labor force," Kirsanow added. Noting that he writing as a single member of U.S. Commission on Civil Rights and not on behalf of the body, Kirsanow argued in a lengthy letter to Obama and Rep. Marcia Fudge (D-OH), the chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus, that expected executive actions would have negative effects on low skilled workers, particularly African Americans, and higher skilled tech workers. “My concerns center around the effect such grant of legal status will have on two subsets of American workers: low-skilled workers, particularly low-skilled black workers, and high- skilled STEM workers.” Kirsanow has raised concerns about the deleterious effects of amnesty and increases in low skilled immigration will have on African Americans in the past but wrote that the the recent revelation that the government is seeking supplies for up to 34 million green cards and work permits has “renewed” those concerns.

Yep, 20-30 million illegals here for years but the recent surge is a problem. Too little, too late.
Shut up and vote!
Pray America is waking
As far as I can see, ‘O’s plan is to make sure that the Black’s will never have any sort of possibility of leaving the Democrat plantation.
Doesn’t Obama realize that if he dares to sign such a traitorous order on illegal immigration soon after the 2014 midterm elections as he said he would, his life and the lives of his wife and two daughters will be miserable the rest of their lives, because Americans will condemn,jeer, and boo Obama for such traitorous action the rest of his life wherever he goes, such as tv talk shows like the Tonight Show?
You bring up some good points. I wonder if he plans on going on a permanent vacation instead of the every other month one he does now?
