[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 983588, member: 9789"] This is all about the election... BO is trying to change the focus from the economy to immigration. This stinks of politics but what else is new. This new policy doesn't change a thing. The Homeland Security Dept already is treating illegal aliens who are not a threat to public safety this way. They are not deporting folks like this. HOWEVER, allowing work permits means there are going to be potentially 800,000 fewer jobs for legal citizens. He took a completely different stand on this same exact subject back in September. Also - Marco Rubio must have been getting close to presenting his legislation which I hear is similar. This takes the wind out the Rubio's sails and it weakens him (in some Dems minds) as a potential VP candidate. The Dems are scared of Romney picking Rubio. Right now the Dems are worried and they will be scrappers trying to get every vote they can any way they can irregardless of legality. [/QUOTE]
