White House: Amnesty for DREAMers' Parents as Early as Fall
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | June 29, 2014 | Tony Lee

Posted on 06/29/2014 5:12:43 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

As illegal immigrants flood across the border, President Barack Obama is still reportedly planning to issue an executive action to give temporary amnesty and work permits this year to the parents of illegal immigrant children.

A "senior official familiar with the White House deliberations" told the Los Angeles Times that the "work is continuing" on a Deferred Action program for the parents of so-called DREAMers and other executive actions to ease deportations. The Times noted that the program "was tentatively slated to be announced this fall," but the Obama administration may try to enact it after the midterm elections because two in three Americans, according to the most recent Gallup poll, disapprove of the way Obama is handling immigration right now.

In 2012, Obama, by executive fiat, enacted the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program that gave temporary amnesty and work permits for two years to illegal immigrant children who came to the country before they were 16, had been living in the United States since 2007, were not over 30 years of age, and met a variety of other requirements.

As Breitbart News has reported, "at least 560,000 people to date have been granted temporary amnesty under the DACA program," and federal officials expect that number will increase as "applicants who were not eligible in 2012 because they were not 16 years of age" will be able to apply for DACA in September, when those who received temporary amnesty in 2012 can re-apply for another two years.

Amnesty advocates stormed Congress on Friday to demand Deferred Action for the parents and family members of illegal immigrant children, which Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) has also vehemently supported. Obama recently asked Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson to delay its review of the nation's immigration laws....

I’m sure Bonehead and McCarthy will file a lawsuit to show they are
really, really serious.

ALL it will take is for one charismatic individual to call for the people to put a stop to this.

Do not abstain from voting if you are republican on election day. Obummer is direct result of those who stayed home on election day 2012.

But for some people destruction of country is no big deal so long as they stayed pure.

Exactly, it should have been done years ago. It wouldnt take long for the illegals to get the message. We have allowed the feds way too much power which is communism. We are the check. Disobey and take control of our country. Real simple

They have the power of the purse too. Of course they are afraid to shut down
this bloated government. People who never vote GOP might get mad.

Contrary to previous statements, we know you peons don't want this invasion so we'll wait until you can't vote my minions out of office to complete our take over. /s

Now if the republicans weren't the Stupid Party, if they cared more about their base and the citizens of this country than their country club democrat friends, they would be shouting this as treason from the rooftops. But they want this to happen, so you won't hear them mention it at all.

Texas should start building the wall tomorrow with armed men, who are ready to shoot. If texas doesnt want to do it the citizens should ban together and do it.

If you listen he said that parents should not allow thier children to come over the border alone they should be accompanied. The pubic party sits silently more worried about how to get rats to vote for them in republican primaries than what the rat king is doing

I belonged to a local Republican group for a number of years and worked very hard to elect at least a majority in the House. Then this very group decided to totally support the local Chamber of Commerce in their quest to flood our Texas market with illegals. Never able to understand why - so I said adios. Lost lots of acquaintances. Turns out they were not the stuff friends or Conservatives are made of after all.

Looks to me like the only people who have to obey the law are middle class and working Americans, plus they get to foot the bill for all the law-breakers, both the illegals, the ghetto thugs, and the ones in political office.

Right, Thad Cochran told those rat voters that he would oppose Obama’s lawlessness. Oh wait, he told them that conservatives are the problem for obstructing Obama.
