Adelina Nicholls walks into a conference room in her Atlanta office. She is carrying a manila folder filled with so many papers that it looks more like a Webster dictionary. Nicholls lays the folder on the table and splits the stack of papers in two.

“We’ve got thousands more of these. I think there might be a hundred here,” she says to a visiting delegation member before reading from the first paper at the top of the left pile.

“Pulled over for taillight. Pulled over for slick tires. Pulled over for a traffic violation, “ she says listing off a series of traffic infractions that go on for pages.

I just realized that the Obama administration is basically doing what the antis want (attrition through enforcement)

Quote:
Cecilia Muñoz, the White House official who oversees immigration policy, said Mr. Obama strongly favored Secure Communities because he does not have the option of saying, “While I’m waiting for Congress to come forward, I am not going to bother to enforce the law.”
The program is “the best tool we have,” she said, “to enforce the law in the best possible way.”

Why would republicans in congress bother coming to the table when the administration is carrying out their enforcement only strategy for them?
