The Obama administration has issued more than 7.4 million work permits to foreign nationals from 2009 – 2014, beyond the approximately one million lawful permanent residents and 700,000 foreign guest workers admitted to the U.S. each year. In written responses to the Senate Judiciary Immigration and the National Interest Subcommittee Republicans obtained by Breitbart News, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services reveal that the Obama administration has been approving work authorizations for immigrants beyond admission limits and for some categories of immigrants that Congress never intended to work in the U.S.......

This is another example of the Obama administration's lawlessness. Their plan to bury the GOP is moving along apace. If you hit the live link in the 11th paragraph you can see how many of these people live in your zip code. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, over 50% of Hispanic immigrants use some kind of welfare. As Milton Friedman said, open borders are incompatible with an extensive welfare state. The GOP would be wise to remember this.

The GOP is authoring their own destruction - instead of screaming at the top of their lungs they attack anyone who suggests we end this immigration craziness.

To the GOP a few chamber of commerce bucks in the bank today are worth more than our children's future.

I agree, Skeeter. I stopped considering myself a Republican almost 10 years ago. I couldn’t bare to be affiliated with such an unintelligent party.

Exactly

All these aliens will be put to use in 2016 especially now that the leftists have succeeded in revoking Texas’ voter ID law on grounds of disparate impact. They are relentless in their quest to tip Texas to the dark side.

“It’s no wonder people are flocking here to claim asylum, enrolling in school, and using other tactics to get here by hook or by crook. This shadow immigration system is displacing Americans and legal workers from jobs, and Congress needs to take back control of the process without delay,”

Ok.....so these are work permits above and beyond those issued green cards.

I would like to see a chart of the total number of visas issued per year.

Anyone coming here on a tourist visa is staying......No need to fear prosecution or deportation.

What we have here is a deliberate act of treason by the White Hut and especially Congress for not stopping this farking POS marxist muslim in the White Hut.

With birthright citizenship created by SCOTUS, millions coming legally and illegally per year.......We're done.

[Tennessee Nana]

was this before or after they arrived in the US ???

[Dagnabitt]

The permits from this parallel, extra-legal immigration push - are issued after the alien is in the USA.

After they are here....intended as a transitional benefit.

From the article:

Of the updated data, Vaughan explained to Breitbart News that the numbers show the Obama administration has been “abusing what should be considered very limited authority to issue work permits.”

She noted that while work permits have been intended to be a benefit for those who are applying for legal status or as a temporary benefit, the administration has issued them to people who are not eligible for legal status.

“Work permits have always been intended as a transitional benefit to assist someone that is in the process of applying for legal status, or as a temporary benefit. The administration has used them as a way to secretly give out benefits to huge numbers of people who are not eligible for a legal status,” she wrote in an email to Breitbart News. “They are using them to bypass the law and evade the rules set by Congress that limit the number of people who can take jobs here.
