Maine’s Gov. Paul LePage said Obama’s action isn’t fair to legal immigrants and that he will fight efforts by the administration to implement the law in his state

“It took us nearly 11 years,” LePage said of an effort to help a Jamaican family get a visa when they followed legal immigration law. “Why should everybody just get one tomorrow?”

“Asked if he would embrace greater legal standing for immigrants in Maine, such as worker permits, after Mr. Obama issues his measure, Mr. LePage swatted away the idea as ‘unacceptable,'” Barbaro added.

“I am fighting it, not helping it,” LePage said of Obama’s executive order.
