Administrative Alternatives to Comprehensive Immigration Reform USCIS Memo‎ FULL TEXT. Obama Administration Memo Cites Non-Legislative Amnesty As Possible Option On Illegal Immigration

Senate Republicans have an internal memo from the Department of Homeland Security that shows the Obama administration "conspiring" and "scheming" to give permanent resident status, or green cards to illegal immigrants in the United States.

The 11-page memo prepared for Alejandro N. Mayorkas, Director of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services is titled, "Administrative Alternatives to Comprehensive Immigration Reform." Obtained by Republican Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa, who said the intent of the memo is "to find very secret creative ways to unilaterally circumvent the law and have a backdoor to amnesty."

Grassley and 11 other senators question by way of letter, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano on her use of "discretionary authority to let people who are illegally in the country to stay." The letter was signed by Senators. Grassley, Thad Cochran of Mississippi, Johnny Isakson of Georgia, Jim DeMint of South Carolina, Saxby Chambliss of Georgia, James Inhofe of Oklahoma, Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, David Vitter of Louisiana, Orrin Hatch of Utah, Jim Bunning of Kentucky, Pat Roberts of Kansas and Jeff Sessions of Alabama.

SUBJECT: Administrative Alternatives to Comprehensive Immigration Reform

I. Purpose

This memorandum offers administrative relief options to promote family unity. foster economic growth, achieve significant process improvements and reduce the threat of removal for certain individuals present in the United Slates without authorization. It includes recommendations regarding implementation time frames and required resources.

ll. Summary

In the absence of Comprehensive immigration Reform, USCIS can extend benefits and/or protections to many individuals and groups by issuing new guidance and regulations, exercising discretion with regard to parole-in-place. deferred action and the issuance of Notices to Appear (NTA), and adopting significant process improvements.

To promote family unity, USCIS could reinterpret lwO 1990 General Counsel Opinions regarding the ability of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) applicants who entered the United Slates (U. S.) without inspection to adjust or change status. This would enable thousands of individuals in TPS status to become lawful permanent residents. Similarly. where non· TPS applicants have been deemed inadmissible under section 212(a)(6)(AXi) of the Immigration and Nationality Act ("the Act") for having entered without inspection, USCIS could grant "parole·in·place" (PIP) in the exercise of discretion to create II basis for adjustment in the U.S.

Obviously, the obama administration will stop at nothing to implement their agenda. This from the purported "most open and tranparent" presidency ever.

The man simply disgusts me.

Is so sad that the men & women in the US Military make so many sacrifices to give us the freedom but selfish people like you can not do one good thing for our Service Men & Women.
The you how hard is to serve in the US military ?
The you know the feeling of having your son or daughter serving?
You want to keep give the terrorists US visa to come and live here with us to kill us, is this what you want?
The service men & women's are US citizens and they do deserve to have their families with them for support. They deserve more from us that we can offer them for their services.

I have read and re-read this document 3 times. You cannot take things out of context and twist them to satisfy your own state of mind. You have to take it altogether. There is a paragraph that says that to do what everyone thinks this document implies would be illegal and against public policy. So, read and re-read the document carefully, and then decide.
