<p>Under the president's new amnesty, businesses will have a $3,000-per-employee incentive to hire illegal immigrants over native-born workers because of a quirk of Obamacare.</p> <p>President Obama's temporary amnesty, which lasts three years, declares up to 5 million illegal immigrants to be lawfully in the country and eligible for work permits, but it still deems them ineligible for public benefits such as buying insurance on Obamacare's health exchanges.</p>

There is no such thing as the "Dream Act". There have bills so named but none of them has become law. Undeterred, Obama implemented in 2012 via the "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals" program (DACA) many features of the failed bills.

Has President Obama’s use of the “pen and phone” to circumvent Congress gotten out of hand? Some members of the GOP seem to think so. [...] a mounting chorus of Republicans are calling for impeachment. Here’s a list of the high-profile Republicans who want to kick the president out of office:

WASHINGTON, June 24 — Bill Gates and Steven A. Ballmer of Microsoft have led a parade of high-tech executives to Capitol Hill, urging lawmakers to provide more visas for temporary foreign workers and permanent immigrants who can fill critical jobs. Google has reminded senators that one of its founders, Sergey Brin, came from the Soviet Union as a young boy. To stay competitive in a “knowledge-based economy,” company officials have said, Google needs to hire many more immigrants as software engineers, mathematicians and computer scientists. The top executives of these and other high-tech companies have been making a huge effort...

WASHINGTON, June 19 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Those hit hardest by the effects of massive illegal immigration, particularly in major urban areas, are often American black and Hispanic citizens. Their voices are being muted in the current Senate debate by powerful business influences demanding cheap foreign labor and special interests representing illegal aliens. The two leading black and Hispanic advocacy organizations for immigration reform will hold a joint news conference in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday June 19, to put a human face on the victims of illegal immigration and the proposed amnesty. "More often than not, the faces of those most directly...

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s (D-Nev.) efforts to complete work on the immigration bill might again disrupt the weekend travel schedules of those senators running for president. Reid’s warning on the Senate floor yesterday that “if they’re going to be gone from the Senate, they’re likely going to miss votes,” prompted an aide to one of the presidential campaigns to respond simply, “Yuck.” Reid also suggested the Fourth of July recess might be canceled if the Senate can’t complete meaningful work on energy and immigration legislation. “It’s our last week here before the July recess, and we’ve got work to...

Our editors here at National Review Online pointed out last week that “It’s Worse Than You Think” with regard to the Senate’s preposterous amnesty bill. They were addressing specifically the fact that the Senate bill would immediately give probationary amnesty to virtually all illegal aliens, and that the much-touted enforcement “triggers” are therefore a sham, since legalization will already have taken place. What’s more, if the benchmarks (more miles of fencing, additional border-patrol agents, etc.) are not met, the probationary status would likely continue indefinitely, since there is no expiration date in the bill. The editorial asks with regard to...

HAGUE, 28/04/07 - Asylum-seekers who lied about their identity or background in their asylum application will be admitted to the general amnesty anyway. The cabinet has agreed on this, insiders in The Hague reported Friday. In their coalition accord, the Christian democrats (CDA), Labour (PvdA) and small Christian party ChristenUnie agreed earlier that there would be a one-time amnesty for rejected asylum-seekers who applied for asylum before 1 April 2001 and have since remained in the Netherlands. Last month, insiders already reported that they would be allowed to have a criminal record providing it showed no unconditional jail sentence of...

Thinking that people have forgotten the May 1st failed boycott,Hispanic leaders are beginning a drive of sign new voters in 19 states. Whether these "new voters" are qualified becuase of their immigration status remains to be seen. But, they are still going through their voter drives, especially in heavily Hispanic areas of the country and along the border state.

WASHINGTON - The White House on Friday said a Senate bill that would grant legal status to illegal immigrants is analogous to a traffic law that allows a speeder to pay a fine and continue driving. "If you had a traffic ticket and you paid it, you're not forever a speeder, are you?" White House Press Secretary Tony Snow said in response to questions from The Examiner. "So the fact is, you have paid your debt to society," he added. "And we have come up with a way to make sure that the debt to society gets paid. Then you...

Urge your representative and senators to oppose amnesty for illegal aliens, in any shape or form.   The Bush administration will continue to push for some form of amnesty. A statement posted on the White House website (http://www.whitehouse.gov/infocus/immigration/) in a report covering President Bush’s January 7th White House meeting during which he discussed his immigration policy, stated:   “On January 7, 2004 President Bush proposed a new temporary worker prrogram to match willing foreign workers with willing U.S. employers when no Americans can be found to fill the jobs. The program would be open to new foreign workers, and to...

Democrats today will present an alternative to the sweeping immigration reform plan announced by President Bush in January. The Democratic lawmakers who will announce the plan at a Washington press conference say the reform is both more concrete than the statement of principles offered by the White House and more likely to appeal to immigrants and their supporters. Among the most significant differences is the Democrats' offer to allow anyone who has been in the country at least five years and worked for at least two to become a legal permanent resident. That would put most of the 8 million...
