Obama to announce 10-point immigration plan via exec action as early as next week
We are finally getting specifics. Obama's plan will cover parents of USC/PR and will remove the age cap from DACA (pushing the entry date from 2007 to 2010). Unfortunately, there is no mention of DACA parents or other long term residents.

Fuck, not parents of DACA holders. That screws my parents over.

Well it's all over. This immigration executive action will be the solution for quite some time now. Whoever is not included and by the looks of it it seems like most of our parents, then they will have to seriously consider the possibility of being here undocumented for the rest of their lives. I'm interested in the "expanding deferred action" phrase. Only time will tell.

For now, we know that someone would be left out and it seems that the anchor babies wield more power than the dreamer babies.

It's still too broad to be interpreted as such. Hoping that my parents are included

I might be screwed on the removal of the age cap. The first time that I came to the US I was 3, my parents took me back to Mexico, then I came back at 8 years of age for good. However, I left the country at the age of 16 for 2 months (my life was threatened by some dumb cholo). I haven't left ever since. All of this happened before 1998. Would my leaving at 16 (even for 2 months) disqualify me since technically I entered again after being 16? I left on a plane, and I came in through the border just showing my California ID; I was asleep coming back in.

Let me start off by saying that this is great news for obvious reasons, primarily because it will give some people much needed relief,Like we got 2 years ago. I have family that will undoubtedly benefit, so my next sentences will only be out of concern.
Like the above poster said, this is it for a while. However, this is pretty high exposure. Unlike with the DACA announcement a couple years ago, this executive order will not be swept under the rug and forgotten about. Two years from now the republican presidential candidate will run on the promise of overturning this "Obama Law" . With all this media attention being brought to this hot topic issue, don't you guys think that tea baggers and conservatives will be lining up to challenge it? I have no problem with this order, truthfully I'd rather lose my permit in 2 years if it means that others can enjoy the same happiness that I have (for at least 2 years), but do guys think that this executive order will last any longer than Obama's presidency ? I really wish that congress would do its job and bring this issue to the table, but I know it won't. I just believe that this is probably gonna be the straw that broke the republicans back and will result in a huge backlash. |

I hope you're right. I just don't see any way that the republicans will let this die. You see how they have voted over 50 times to defund or completely overturn Obamacare. And have promised to continue doing so. These clowns are relentless and only care about undoing anything that Obama has or wants to do. Again, I don't see this ending well for any of us but hey id rather others (especially older dreamers) benefit for a while like I have, because this DACA thing has truly been liberating for most of us.
