Executive Action: What now?

According to experts, the process could be similar to the program "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals" (DACA, for its acronym in English) that protects young people from deportation and allows them to obtain a work permit, driver's license and Social Security number.

Applicants would have to check the length of residence in the United States. To do this would require a number of documents such as a passport, consular registration, and utility bills.

The program would also be expanded DACA under the new plan. From this listing the benefits of this measure include those who were brought into the country before January 1, 2010 (almost three years compared to the original project) regardless of their age.

The measure would also simplify the immigration process for people who are in the process of obtaining legal residency based on skills and knowledge in areas such as science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

It is estimated that more than 11 million unauthorized immigrants living in the country , and the decrees of Obama would leave millions unprotected, although the chances of being deported if they have not committed a crime are low.

Basically they can get work permit, driver's license and Social Security number.

Like I said, you'll get the clearest picture from a spanish website:

work permit, driver's license and Social Security number...regardless of age.

Jail to the Chief....

What may happen is after the illegals sign up and confirm their name and addresses; ICE will come in later to pick them up for deportation after obama’s illegal EO is shut down.

This may be the best program to round up illegals for deportation we have had in a long time. Since the 50’s really.

[SeekAndFind]

I note -— Obama didn’t exactly grant amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. He just said that henceforth the government wasn’t going to do anything about enforcing the law. Worried about being deported? Relax. “All we’re saying is we’re not going to deport you.”

The States who plan to sue Obama ( Texas and Oklahoma) will have a strong case in court because it is clearly who REFUSES to enforce the law he swore to uphold.

[RWGinger]

And what do you need to register to vote?
A driver’s license
even if this get turned over in Jan how many illegals will have gotten driver’s licenses and registered?

[C210N]

Maybe this can be the basis for a new Operation Wetback...

to be dubbed Operation DeportBack

OBAMA’S WAR AGAINST THE AMERICAN WORKERS

Obama's Executive Amnesty Could REWARD MILLIONS OF IMMIGRANTS WHO VIOLATED OUR SOVEREIGNTY ENTERING ILEGALLY IN THE COUNTRY, BUT IT WILL PROFOUNDLY AFFECT THE LIVES OF MILLIONS OF UNEMPLOYED AMERICAN BLUE COLLAR WORKERS.

Blacks are going to be the main collateral victims of Obama's anti-Black amnesty.

OBAMA’S UNCONSTITUTIONAL AMNESTY TO MIGRANTS THAT ARE LIVING ILLEGALLY IN THE U.S.A.

After destroying the best health care system in the world, Obama is determined to grant wide amnesty to foreigners living illegally in U.S. If Obama wants to make the U.S. into another banana republic, it seems he is well underway to reaching his goal.

Obama’s Amnesty Will Add As Many Foreign Workers As New Jobs Since 2009

The Republicans must make it perfectly clear that Obama has declared a merciless war against the American workers and the middle class of America. There are 92 million of able Americans out of the work force because they cannot find employment and Obama wants to legalize and give work permits to over 11 million illegal aliens allowing them to bring here the rest of their families. In other words, another 25 or 30 million that either will compete with Americans and legal immigrants searching for scarce jobs or are going to be added to welfare, bankrupting Medicaid and the food stamp system as well as ruining even more the quality of the public schools with the massive infuse of hundreds of thousands of children without speaking English to already overburdened schools systems.

Blacks are going to be the main collateral victims of Obama's anti-Black amnesty. Black Americans are already suffering higher unemployment since Obama took power. Obama’s new class of protected immigrants will take over their jobs and Blacks will be forced to share their welfare checks and food stamps with them

Obama just gives speeches , he expects the fools in government to do all the Criminal work now

[oldbrowser]

There is a difference between deferred action and affirmative action.

Using prosecutor discretion is using limited resources to prioritize certain crimes. It is subject to question when the government chooses to employ it as political discretion.

[Chuzzlewit]

just take a look at California... that’s what is going to happen to this country.. full democratic control, and a full nanny state with over 1/2 the population either working for the goverment, or on the dole... with business leaving the country altogether.. corporate headquarters and all but 7/11 and starbucks, local grocery stores, etc... will be gone.

[babygene]

“Basically they can get work permit, driver’s license and Social Security number.”

I don’t see how the feds can require states to issue drivers licenses. That would be covered by state law...

[MNDude]

actually, that is a really good question. I haven’t heard of any national driver’s license.

[Repealthe17thAmendment]

So far, I haven't seen anyone comment on how this action appears to contradict the 14th Amendment's Equal Protection Clause.

Here's what the Constitution says:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

How can "prosecutorial discretion" possibly be allowed if there is supposed to be equal protection?

[Boomer]

E-Verify might be the option.

[Big Horn]

The new congress can pass a law changing it.

[Boomer]

“to be dubbed Operation DeportBack”

I like it!

[Big Horn]

Get him under oath.

[ctdonath2]

What next? Congress has a process for revoking EOs. Follow it.

[freekitty]

She is wrong beyond belief. This is what Congress is for. She should read the book “Inventing Freedom, How the English Speaking People Made the Modern World” by Daniel Hannan. People could benefit from reading this book. For example in England if the monarchy got out of hand like Obama; Parliament slapped him down which is exactly what they did. Maybe getting educated instead of just talking something will really get done for the benefit of America and it’s people.

DACA is the biden law that helps sneak in illegals who will be able to vote in coming elections

it’s yet another move to get more voters.

strangely, it’s only applicable to people from south america. people from northern europe do not count.

funny how that is.
