From CNN today....

Washington (CNN) -- In an election-year policy change, the Obama administration said Friday it will stop deporting young illegal immigrants who entered the United States as children if they meet certain requirements.

The shift on the politically volatile issue of immigration policy prompted immediate praise from Latino leaders who have criticized Congress and the White House for inaction, while Republicans reacted with outrage that the move amounts to amnesty -- a negative buzz word among conservatives.
What to know on immigration in the U.S. Those who might benefit from the change expressed joy and relief.

Pedro Ramirez, a student who has campaigned for such a move, said he was "definitely speechless," then added: "It's great news."

Joe Arpaio asks 'why now' to immigration President Barack Obama will make a White House statement about the policy change Friday afternoon.

Under the new policy, people younger than 30 who came to the United States before the age of 16, pose no criminal or security threat, and were successful students or served in the military can get a two-year deferral from deportation, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said.

Seems like neither of the last two occupants of the White House take their obligation to enforce the laws of the United States seriously. Perhaps that is why they typicallytake the oath with one hand behind their back.

I suspect that as election season ramps up that Mittens will take a lax stance on immigration in an attempt to court some Hispanic votes.
