DACA PROGRAM TO END IN 5 MOS IF CONGRESS DOESN'T FIX LEGALLY (CAMPAIGN PROMISES)
#DACA
DREAMERS PROGRAM TO END IN 5 MOS IF CONGRESS DOESN'T FIX LEGALLY (CAMPAIGN PROMISES):
MANY LEGAL LATINO, WHITE, BLACK, ASIAN & INDIAN STUDENTS ARE DENIED COLLEGE AID DUE TO ILLEGAL STUDENTS RECEIVING IT.
DEMOCRATS GAVE ILLEGALS EVERYTHING FOR THEIR 2016 VOTES BUT THE ILLEGALS VOTED FOR TRUMP.
ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IS NOT LEGAL CITIZENSHIP.
DEMOCRATS CAN'T KEEP USING ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS TO REPLACE WHITE & BLACK LEGAL VOTERS.
ANOTHER REASON WHY DEMOCRATS LOST IN 2016.

< "Per our local reports, there are over 500,000 illegals in the Houston area alone. They are all getting money for what happened because we are a state that will not leave you out alone, but most understand that the money they will take could easily be going to the USA legal victims of the hurricane. So, yes build the wall Mr. President! I am a disowned Latina, and I know my people. Once they are allowed to stay, you will see the border saturated with more minors trained in what to say when crossing and demanding every free benefit they can get. Smugglers read a single sentence like this to rapidly increase the number of young illegal immigrants they cross. For those illegals who personally argue of how hard they work, you have to be honest to yourself, and recognize that while you work, you are also trying to cheat the system because after all, “El que no tranza no avanza” right? This famous Mexican accepted phrase says basically that he, who doesn’t cheat, doesn’t advance. The fact is that illegal immigrants will pull at your heart's strings with scripted lines to make you feel guilty and sorry for them. They talk about families being separated when most already directly LEFT their children back in their countries for many years before bringing them here, also illegally. How can you wish rape upon your “loved” one when according to a stunning Fusion investigation, 80 percent of women and girls crossing into the U.S. by way of Mexico are raped during their journey. Many complain that the wall will be about 25 billion dollars, but the USA has been paying for it for the longest time. At least lets get back something physically solid for it. Year after year, we have paid well over the 25 billion on getting every illegal and their families food stamps, housing, health care, free child birth, welfare checks, almost free education that USA students don't get, scholarship money that should go to your children, some even free cell phone service, free entertainment in the case of the illegal minors who at least under Obama got taken to waterparks and movies for weekly fun time. Just by minimizing the money that Mexicans take from us when we spend on them, we will be getting the money back from Mexico. I am tired of seeing so many Mexican license plates, even luxury cars of known drug dealers’ daughters, outside the benefit offices of my border town. At least we need to lose less. Please, defend the young citizens of this our USA."

< "As a college educator, I have seen countless Dream Act recipients being awarded a higher education virtually for free while so many young people born in this country have been forced to put off their schooling or to work nearly full time schedules in order to finance their tuition. Not fair at all."
...........From Biagio, Yahoo News Commenter
"Shame on Obama for implementing this program that ignored Federal laws and causing inequality in immigration. I am for equality and believe all immigrants should go through the same equal system, no one is above the law and no one should circumvent the laws and put themselves in front of other LEGAL immigrants. I am an immigrant and I support equality in immigration!!"

"I welcome all fellow immigrants with open arms. But illegals are not immigrants, they're intruders."
~~~ WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is expected to announce that he will end protections for young immigrants who were brought into the country illegally as children, but with a six-month delay, people familiar with the plans said Sunday.
The delay in the formal dismantling of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program would be intended to give Congress time to decide whether it wants to address the status of the so-called Dreamers in legislation, according to two people familiar with the president's thinking. But it was not immediately clear how the six-month delay would work in practice and what would happen to people who currently have work permits under the program, or whose permits expire during the six-month stretch.
It also was unclear exactly what would happen if Congress failed to pass a measure by the considered deadline. Two people familiar with the president's thinking spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter ahead of a planned Tuesday announcement.
The president, who has been grappling with the issue for months, has been known to change his mind in the past and could still shift course. The plan was first reported by Politico Sunday evening.
Trump has been wrestling for months with what to do with the Obama-era DACA program, which has given nearly 800,000 young immigrants a reprieve from deportation and the ability to work legally in the form of two-year, renewable work permits.
The expected move would come as the White House faces a Tuesday deadline set by Republican state officials threatening to continue sue the Trump administration if the president did not end the program. It also would come as Trump digs in on appeals to his base as he finds himself increasingly under fire, with his poll numbers hanging at near-record lows.
Trump had been personally torn as late as last week over how to deal with what are undoubtedly the most sympathetic immigrants living in the U.S. illegally. Many came to the U.S. as young children and have no memories of or connections to the countries they were born in.
During his campaign, Trump slammed DACA as illegal "amnesty" and vowed to eliminate the program the day he took office. But since his election, Trump has wavered on the issue, at one point telling The Associated Press that those covered could "rest easy."
Trump had been unusually candid as he wrestled with the decision in the early months of his administration. During a February press conference, he said the topic was "a very, very difficult subject for me, I will tell you. To me, it's one of the most difficulty subjects I have."
"You have some absolutely incredible kids — I would say mostly," he said. adding: "I love these kids."
All the while, his administration continued to process applications and renew DACA work permits, to the dismay of immigration hard-liners.
News of the president's expected decision appeared to anger advocates on both sides of the issue.
"IF REPORTS ARE TRUE, Pres Trump better prepare for the civil rights fight of his admin. A clean DREAM Act is now a Nat Emergency #DefendDACA," tweeted New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez, a Democrat.
But Rep. Steve King, an Iowa Republican who has called DACA unconstitutional, warned that a delay in dismantling it would amount to "Republican suicide."
"Ending DACA now gives chance 2 restore Rule of Law. Delaying so R Leadership can push Amnesty is Republican suicide," he wrote.
It would be up to congressional lawmakers to pass a measure to protect those who have been covered under the program. While there is considerable support for that prospect among Democrats and moderate Republicans, Congress is already facing a packed fall agenda and has had a poor track record in recent years in passing immigration-related bills.
House Speaker Paul Ryan and a number of other legislators urged Trump last week to hold off on scrapping DACA to give them time to come up with a legislative fix.
"These are kids who know no other country, who are brought here by their parents and don't know another home. And so I really do believe that there needs to be a legislative solution," Ryan told Wisconsin radio station WCLO.
The Obama administration created the DACA program in 2012 as a stopgap to protect some young immigrants from deportation as they pushed unsuccessfully for a broader immigration overhaul in Congress.
The program protected people in the country illegally who could prove they arrived before they were 16, had been in the United States for several years and had not committed a crime while being here. It mimicked versions of the so-called DREAM Act, which would have provided legal status for young immigrants but was never passed by Congress.
As of July 31, 2015, more than 790,000 young immigrants had been approved under the program, according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
The House under Democratic control passed a Dream Act in 2010 but it died in the Senate. But since Republicans retook control of the House in late 2010, it has grown increasingly hardline on immigration, killing the Senate's comprehensive immigration bill in 2013 and failing to even take up a GOP border security bill two years later because of objections from conservatives.
Many House Republicans represent highly conservative districts. The primary upset of the former House Majority Leader Eric Cantor to a conservative challenger in 2014 in a campaign that cast him as soft on illegal immigration convinced many House Republicans that pro-immigrant stances could cost them politically.
So despite Ryan's personal commitment on the issue and his rhetoric in favor of the young immigrants, action to protect them may be unlikely in the House — absent intense lobbying from Trump.
