(CBS/AP) WASHINGTON - Effective immediately, the Obama administration will stop deporting and begin granting work permits to younger illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children and have since led law-abiding lives. The election-year initiative addresses a top priority of an influential Latino electorate that has been vocal in its opposition to administration deportation policies.
The policy change will affect as many as 800,000 immigrants who have lived in fear of deportation. It also bypasses Congress and partially achieves the goals of the so-called DREAM Act, a long-sought but never enacted plan to establish a path toward citizenship for young people who came to the United States illegally but who have attended college or served in the military.

ReplyDeleteBwana Mkubwa suala hili la Illegal Immigrants na Deportation fear (Uhamiaji haramu na kurejeshwa watu makwao kutoka USA) ni hot kwa hao hao Latinos kutokea nchi jirani yenu Mexico Visiwa vya Carribean na Kusini ya Amerika na sio kwa sisi Afrika ya Mashariki.
Wewe kiasili ukiwa kama mwana Afrika ya Mashariki mwenzetu kwa nasaba ya baba yako mzazi licha ya Umarekani wako tutakulaumu sana EAC kwa kutuingiza ktk vita ya Somalia ya Karne isiyokwisha badala ya kutumia njia isiyokuwa ya umwagaji damu ya Demokrasia!
