WH to Honor Young Illegal Immigrants
The Hill ^ | Monday, June 16, 2014 | Rebecca Shabad

Posted on 06/16/2014 4:21:20 PM PDT by kristinn

The White House will honor 10 young adults on Tuesday who came to the United States illegally and qualified for the president’s program to defer deportation actions.

Each person has qualified for the government’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival program, which delays removal proceedings against them as long as they meet certain guidelines.

They will be honored as “Champions of Change,” the White House said in a statement Monday because they “serve as success stories and role models in their academic and professional spheres.”

They emigrated from Mexico, Colombia, Morocco, India, Taiwan and the Philippines and many of them work in professions related to immigration policy or have helped launch initiatives that promote reform.

Immigration from one country, Mexico, is 2.5 times that of many countries combined.

I've taken the figures from the above table at cis.org and graphed them.

Note the sharp increase in immigration from Mexico and how that differs from all other regions' increase. Note also the sharp decline in immigration from Europe while all other regions have increased.


Roughly 63% of illegals are Mexican.

Do the math. “As of March 2010, 11.2 million unauthorized immigrants were living in the United States”

Then see Figure 2 at http://www.pewhispanic.org/2011/02/01/ii-current-estimates-and-trends/

The main article is at the first link. Be sure to check the Appendices.

Many of our illegal aliens are visa overstayers or people who may follow the schedule of their visas (e.g. go home every 6 months) but violate other terms of their visas such as working under the table.

I’ve known many from Mexico (as well as other countries) who flew in on commercial flights on visas or visa wavers but stayed/worked here illegally. Focusing just on Mexicans who never talk with a border patrol agent misses the vast majority.

Sorry, I was off on a tangent and missed your main point. Yes, 63% (I’ve read 57 but that may be an old number) are from Mexico. That may be the case in aggregate or amongst those who are ‘undocumented’ (never had any visa). Either way, I hope enforcement happens against all illegal aliens and not just ones from a specific country. We need interior enforcement.

Choosing illegal aliens from Mexico, Colombia, Morocco, India, Taiwan and the Philippines is diversion from the facts. Mexico is by far the largest source of illegal aliens.

Yes, we do need interior enforcement, and enforcement should be applied equally to all illegal aliens. However the present manufactured “crisis” is at the Mexico-U.S. border, efforts should be focused there immediately.

If I were a liberal Democrat in 2014, I’d be laughing and crapping on everyone too.

They’re breaking and violating the law and no one is even trying to stop them.

He’s advertising for more border jumpers. The flow isn’t bad enough yet at the southern border.

This is total “in your face” to the law and taxpayers.
