New DHS rules cancel deportations

[WillowTree]

The Homeland Security Department said Thursday it will halt deportation proceedings on a case-by-case basis against illegal immigrants who meet certain criteria such as attending school, having family in the military or are primarily responsible for other family members’ care.

The move, announced in letters to Congress, won immediate praise from Hispanic activists and Democrats who had chided President Obama for months for the pace of deportations and had argued he had authority to exempt broad swaths of illegal immigrants from deportation.

“Today’s announcement shows that this president is willing to put muscle behind his words and to use his power to intervene when the lives of good people are being ruined by bad laws,” said Rep. Luis V. Gutierrez, Illinois Democrat.
In the letters to Congress, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said her department and the Justice Department will review all ongoing cases and see who meets the new criteria on a case-by-case basis.

“This case-by-case approach will enhance public safety,” she said. “Immigration judges will be able to more swiftly adjudicate high priority cases, such as those involving convicted felons.”

Obama needs the votes in 2012.

Well hell, that covers all of them. Obama has already lost the black votes from what I am hearing. "Fool me once shame on me. Fool me twice shame on you"

 

[Moonglow]

I bet the action is rescinded

 

[JMadison]

It's "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me."

THIS IS A BACKDOOR AMENSTY FOLKS. THEY ARE INTENTIONALLY IGNORING THE LAWS WE HAVE FOR IMMIGRATION.

Illegal Immigrants BROKE THE LAW when they snuck into OUR COUNTRY. They are already, criminals.

CALL YOUR REPRESENTIVES and let them have it.

OBAMA SHOULD BE IMPEACHED for this.

It's "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me."

You're both wrong.

With the defeat of the Dream Act, the globalist has decided to unilaterally rewrite the country's immigration law. Obama has effectively granted American citizenship to the entire planet, as long as they get a job when they come here illegally. Basically, America doesn't have any borders.

As defined by the U.S. Constitution, we also do not have a President.

You forgot to cite the case law or provide any evidence Obama failed to ‘uphold the laws and constitution of the USA.’

You understand no one will take just your word for it.
