As a country, we have been fighting “Illegal Immigration” for quite some time now. In the years since President Ronald Reagan created an amnesty for those here in the United States Illegally, we have seen an enormous increase of illegal immigration activity.
Pres. Barack Obama went against his own authority in creating DACA (deferred action for childhood arrivals) in 2012. His Executive Action was deemed unconstitutional by the Federal Courts!
Wikipedia states the following:
The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) was an American immigration policy that allowed some individuals who entered the country as minors, and had either entered or remained in the country illegally, to receive a renewable two-year period of deferred action from deportation and to be eligible for a work permit. As of 2017, approximately 800,000 individuals were enrolled in the program created by DACA. The policy was established by the Obama Administration in June 2012 and rescinded by the Trump Administration in September 2017. The policy was established by executive action rather than legislation; however, participating individuals were sometimes referred to as Dreamers after the DREAM Act bill, a bipartisan bill first proposed in 2001 that was the first of a number of subsequent bills in the U.S. House and Senate attempting to provide a pathway to citizenship or other legal status for certain undocumented residents who immigrated illegally as children and subsequently completed some college or military service.
In November 2014 President Barack Obama announced his intention to expand DACA to cover additional illegal immigrants.
But multiple states immediately sued to prevent the expansion, which was ultimately blocked by the courts. The United States Department of Homeland Security rescinded the expansion on June 16,
2017, while continuing to review the existence of the DACA program as a whole. The DACA policy was rescinded by the Trump Administration on September 5, 2017, but full implementation of the rescission was delayed six months to give Congress time to decide how to deal with the population that was previously eligible under the policy.
President Trump actually did the DACA participants a favor! Without the six (6) month delay in the rescission, deportations would have started in October 2017.
We all have feelings about what has happened with the DACA individuals. But, the parents BROKE U.S. LAW by bringing them here illegally!
The Trump administration has outlined a four (4) point list of what must be met for him to sign a bill that passes the house and senate.
- Take care of the DACA issue.
- Fund the Border Wall System.
- End Chain migration.
- End the Diversity VISA lottery.
The current proposal the White House has released, is again, what President Trump would accept.
- A path to Citizenship for 1.8 million DACA individuals and their immediate families over the next 10 to 12 years. (This could mean that they will still need to do the work that others have done to come here legally.)
- Fund the Boarder Wall System with $25 Billion. (This includes: The Wall, Electronic Systems, more Border agents and other technologies.)
- End Chain Migration! (only Nuclear Family allowed. No more Cousins!)
- End of the Diversity Visa Lottery IN TOTALITY!
The Democrats on Capital Hill are losing their collective minds over this. They seem to only be using DACA as political tool to resist President Trump! They do not want him to have any wins!
The White House draft is a million more than what the Democrats had even asked for from the President yet, they are still not happy.
We NEED to protect our borders. Period. There are Americans that think we should NOT have any borders and we should take anyone who wants to come here. This would spark a movement to have MORE government control to look over a massive population. That would enable us to be a Socialist Country! And would be the end of our Constitution and the Freedoms it protects.
