President’s Executive Action On Immigration

On November 20, 2014, President Barack Obama announced his executive action on immigration plan saying that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security would not deport certain undocumented parents of U.S. citizens and parents of lawful permanent residents. The president also announced an expansion of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program for youth who came to the United States as children. Under a directive from the secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, these parents and youth may be granted a type of temporary permission to stay in the U.S. called “deferred action.” These programs are expected to help as many as 4.4 million people, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
