REP. SMITH: DHS IS “WORKING FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS”
Yesterday, the Department of Homeland Security began its review of deportation cases which will undoubtedly allow untold thousands of illegal immigrants to remain in the country WITH WORK PERMITS due to Obama’s “prosecutorial discretion” policy. Under Obama’s new guidelines for deportation, illegal immigrants can no longer be deported if they are enrolled in any type of education program, if their family members have volunteered for U.S. military service, if they have filed a civil rights lawsuit or even if they are pregnant or nursing, among other exemptions. In a statement, Rep. Smith said: “The policies put forth today by political appointees at the Department of Homeland Security show that its 'working group' is only working for illegal immigrants.”
