Obama
Administration Already Granting Amnesty
by Tony Lee
President
Barack Obama issued an executive directive in which his administration
would
not deport illegal immigrants who came to the United States before they
were 16
years of age, are 30, and have been in the country for at least five
years.
Further, the Obama administration told Congress that it would take 60
days to
implement the directive.
It has not
even been a month since Obama’s directive, but, according to Rep. Lamar
Smith
(R-TX), the federal government has already been granting illegal
immigrants
“tentative legal status.” More incredibly, according to a Washington
Times
report, immigration officials have been giving tentative legal status
to those
who do not even meet the requirements, according to U.S. Customs and
Immigration (ICE) documents.
According
to the Times, Smith said “he’s learned some illegal immigrants who have
been in
the U.S. less than five years have had their deportations canceled”
even though
the administration “listed the five-year mark as one of their criteria.”
According
to ICE documents Smith reviewed, ICE officers are encouraged to search
for
those who are “apparently eligible” to not be deported, under the
directive,
and grant them tentative status, according to the report.
“President
Obama is granting amnesty to illegal immigrants behind Americans’
backs,” Smith
said, per the Times. “Although administration officials told
congressional
offices that it would take 60 days to implement the president’s amnesty
plan,
internal ICE documents show that illegal immigrants have already
benefited from
it, even though there are no standards in place.”
This is yet
another example of the Obama administration misleading the American
public and
not enforcing laws. In this case, this is an example of the
administration not
even honoring the terms of its own outrageous, fiat-like directive.
