So they can be allowed, “to come out from the shadows “ so they can work peacefully as it would be legal for them to work. This is almost like a top priority for the Supreme Court to review, because the justices are not sure weather Obama is taking advantage of his powers in order to push the nation to pass political gridlock. Or maybe he just does not want to cooperate with the constitutional boundaries that you have to meet the requirements of approval from congress. That was maybe said to throw off the attention of the good things he is going for immigration and to focus on the mistakes he has done. Just some facts to put out on immigration during the Obama term, in 2008 369,221 immigrants were removed form the U.S. Then in 2012 you had 409,849 immigrants were removed. Then the interesting part was that the number went down significant in 2015 with only 235,413 immigrants being removed.

Not only because they didn’t agree with the idea of “amnesty” but this gave Obama the ultimate edge in the Hispanic voting.
