worry about working illegally. If they got caught and get into deportation
process, more likely, they will be free later and will be granted necessary
immigration benefits along with work authorization.
Sounds too good to me true?
Durbin's statement added that when reviews of individual cases result in
cases being closed, those individuals "will be able to apply for certain
immigration benefits, including work authorization." Durbin is a senator
Obama Administration Curtails Deportations of Non-Criminal Immigrants
“Never, in the history of federal immigration enforcement, has an
administration willfully and so egregiously usurped Congress’s and the
people’s role to decide immigration issues.”
The Obama administration today announced it will no longer actively seek to
deport illegal immigrants who don’t have criminal records and that it will
review all existing deportation cases involving non-criminal immigrants on a
case-by-case basis.
The news follows months of intense pressure from immigrant advocates who had
urged the president to use his administrative authority to refocus the
government's limited law enforcement resources while congressional gridlock
over a comprehensive immigration system overhaul persists.
The administration has already prioritized the removal of criminal aliens,
but today officials took that policy one step further with the promise to
review more than 300,000 pending deportations on a case-by-case basis and
stay those involving individuals not convicted of crimes.
The Department of Homeland Security said it will also no longer focus its
limited resources on apprehending and deporting non-criminals, including
young people brought to the country illegally by their parents, military
veterans and the spouses of active-duty troops.
“It makes no sense to spend our enforcement resources on these low-priority
cases when they could be used with more impact on others, including
individuals who have been convicted of serious crimes,” Cecilia Munoz, the
administration's director of intergovernmental affairs, wrote in a White
House blog post.
“This means more immigration enforcement pressure where it counts the most,
and less where it doesn’t," she said. "That’s the smartest way to follow
the law while we stay focused on working with the Congress to fix it.”
An administration official said a joint DHS-Justice Department panel will
apply a set of criteria to the pending cases, examining a person’s criminal
record, his or her contributions to the community, family ties and military
service record, all to determine whether or not to put them on hold.
Officials noted that cases can and will be re-opened at any time if the
government receives new information on criminal behavior.
Immigrants exempt from deportation will not receive “any long standing
immigration benefit or status,” said a senior administration official. They
are “simply being put aside so we can focus on other more high priority
categories.”
Will these immigrants be eligible to apply for work permits while remaining
in the country? Yes, officials said, though that is not new since
undocumented persons have always had the opportunity to request temporary
work authorization.
“It’s not automatic, it’s not guaranteed," an official said, "those are
also decisions that are going to be made on a case-by-case basis.”
The Obama administration has overseen a record number of deportations in
each of the past three years. In 2010, DHS deported roughly 400,000
immigrants – an all-time high. More than half had criminal records.
Officials said the overall number of deportations is unlikely to drop with
the new policy, but that the composition of the numbers will continue
reflect deportation of more criminals.
Immigrant advocates, who had pressed the president to use administrative
powers to curtail the numbers and reduce the impact on non-criminals,
praised today’s development.
“This is the Barack Obama I have been waiting for and that Latino and
immigrant voters helped put in office to fight for sensible immigration
policies,” said Rep. Luis Gutierrez, D-Ill., an outspoken advocate for
comprehensive immigration reform.
“Focusing scarce resources on deporting serious criminals, gang bangers,
and drug dealers and setting aside non-criminals with deep roots in the U.S.
until Congress fixes our laws is the right thing to do," he said, "and I am
proud of the President and Secretary Napolitano for standing up for a more
rational approach to enforcing our current immigration laws.”
Conservative opponents of the more lenient approach to prosecuting some
illegal immigrants slammed it as an unconstitutional “amnesty.”
“This step by the White House amounts to a complete abrogation of the
President’s duty to enforce the laws of the land and a huge breach of the
public trust,” said Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American
Immigration Reform, an advocacy group, in a statement.

发帖数: 15689 | 9 You're right, it's nothing new. Some illegal immigrants (most from Mexico)
just go to local USCIS office to report their status, and receive a NTA (
notice to appear) for immigration court session --- which decides whether
they will be deportable or not. Then they can apply for EAD and work legally
in the US until the court makes the final decision, which may take years.

（中央社新墨西哥州阿尔伯克基19日综合外电报导）美国新墨西哥州23岁男子查康（
Antonio Diaz Chacon）目睹绑匪绑走6岁女童，随即跳上座车，追赶绑匪，救回肉票。
他今天被誉为英雄，但也坦承其实自己是非法移民。
查康开着自己的小货车，追逐可疑绑匪，直到歹徒撞上路灯。查康救了小女孩，绑匪逃
入沙漠。警方稍后逮捕这名男子。
许多人认为查康是英雄，但他坦承自己是非法移民。他与美国人结婚，并在美国住了4
年，育有2子。查康说，取得合法居留权的过程很困难且费用昂贵，他已经放弃。
人权团体说，查康的例子证明大部分的非法移民不是罪犯，查康甚至是英雄。
其他人则拿查康批评新墨西哥州长马蒂内兹（Susana Martinez）的做法。新墨西哥州
法原本允许外国公民，包括非法移民取得驾驶执照，马蒂内兹企图废除这项法律，州议
会今年初没有通过，马蒂内兹又将这个议案排上9月的特别会期。
州政府说立场没有改变，反而指控人权团体利用查康。查康自己不后悔救人，导致身分
曝光。他说：「我不担心，为什么要担心 我又不是杀人或犯了重罪。」
即使有非法移民的争议，阿尔伯克基市仍依照计画举行表扬查康的仪式。 | w*****g
