There is so much anger towards the Obama administration,
because there has been a record in deportations then when
any other president in office the Latino community feels that deportations are
on the rise. About 400,000 undocumented
immigrants have been deported each year since Obama took office, the highest
deportations than any other president in office.
Homeland Security Secretary, Napolitano, said that 55
percent of those deported had felonies or misdemeanors and 96 percent were
within the agencies priority categories.
Undocumented immigrants come here to find a better means of living for
their families. But at the same time, we
also have those who break the law and deserve to be deported. They must know if they commit a crime they
must pay for their actions.
Our, President Barack Obama with the wake of all this
controversy regarding immigration still has a high approval amongst the Latinos
at about 73 percent, up from last year’s poll of about 48 percent.
The members of the bipartisan group have been working
together to come up with a bill that they hope to be submitting right around
March. President Obama, apparently is
prepared to submit his own bill if this group does not get one put together
soon.
Some people feel that the president is using his power as
president to his advantage and has taken it too far and are not happy with all
of this immigration nonsense. At this
time, the president doesn’t have much time to get this done and is putting
pressure on the bipartisan group. We all know that this immigration problem is not going away. We have been dealing with immigration problems for so many years. It is time that we for once give these undocumented immigrants the opportunity to stay and work here with a permit, and if they mess that up for themselves, then get them out of here simple as that.
