The War on America never ends.
The Obama administration will seek an emergency court order to move
forward with President Obama’s executive action on immigration.
Officials at the Department of Justice (DOJ) plan to seek what is known
as an emergency stay that would essentially undo a Texas-based federal judge
’s injunction from earlier this week. If the stay is granted, the
government could restart a pair of executive programs that will shield
millions of undocumented immigrants from deportation.
White House press secretary Josh Earnest said DOJ will file for the stay
by “Monday at the latest.”
The emergency stay had been sought by immigrant rights advocates, who
want to get the programs up and running as soon as possible while the
appeals process plays out.
“We — as immigrants and as Americans — have waited for nearly a
quarter century for these much-needed improvements to our broken immigration
system,” Marielena Hincapié, head of the National Immigration Law Center
(NILC), said Friday in a statement. “We should not allow a flawed legal
decision to delay these changes any longer.”
