===============================================================


Washington (CNN) -- In an election-year policy change, the Obama administration said Friday it will stop deporting young illegal immigrants who were brought to the United States as children if they meet certain requirements.

The new policy will cover people younger than 30 who came to the United States before the age of 16, pose no criminal or security threat, and were successful students or served in the military, the Department of Homeland Security announced.

It also will allow those meeting the requirements to apply for work permits, the statement said. The initial deferral of deportation will be for two years, and participants must be in the United States now and be able to prove they have been living in the country continuously for at least five years.

Why was 4-year-old American girl deported?

President Barack Obama will make a White House statement about the policy change Friday afternoon.

The move addresses a major concern of the Hispanic community and mimics some of the provisions of a Democratic proposal called the DREAM Act that has failed to win enough Republican support to gain congressional approval.

Obama has been criticized by Hispanic-American leaders for an overall increase in deportations of illegal aliens in recent years. Last year, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement removed 396,906 illegal immigrants, the largest number in the agency's history.

    To all the jobless American citizens out there, your president just made your prospects for finding work a lot harder. Now young illegals are gonna come in and flood the gates, making the competition a lot harder by encouraging this. People from all over are gona come in with fake documents "proving" they were here for a long time.

    ^^I have a good job ? . Since when do I ask for a handout. This new policy will hurt American citizens looking for work, I know you're too stupid to understand that, but don't confuse me for a welfare queen. I pay bills and contribute to the economy.

    those "illegals" are already over here and it's if you came over here under a certain age. Those kids deserve to get sent back even though they consider themselves Americans and their parents came over here illegally? No they don't. They're contributing to society in a positive way, let them live.

    Aight cool. American citizens just have to suck it up. American citizens will now compete with illegals for work. And this is supposed to make Obama more popular with the avg American citizen? Okay no problem. I just feel bad for the tens of millions of young kids that will have an even harder time finding work now. Those kids are gona turn to more drastic ways to make income, making American society even more fragile but if this is perfectly okay with you, so be it. I got mines and a good education, so I guess I'll be okay either way. The youth on the other hand are ? now. They won't get hired over an illegal willing to work for slave wages.

    I guess more flash mobs will be on the way than. No problem = )

    significant parts of the economy in some states rely on illegal immigrants, like it or not it's not the President's fault. no one here had a job taken from them by some illegal most of the jobs they do normal Americans don't want or won't do. you can have it like this or companies will just ship more jobs overseas then we won't have any of those jobs (and not just the gardeners and kitchen cafeteria workers.)

    also they're talking about a 4 year old girl in this article ffs (and for people that lived here at least 5 years already), the country is big as ? anyway a lot smaller countries deal with a lot more immigrants than we do - there's more than enough room to accommodate some little kids and their families without having to condemn them to a life in some desolate ? in Mexico

    In order to become legal, you actually have to do ? honestly and contribute to society. That means to become legal citizens, they will have to pay taxes on a a legal income. You can't take legal American jobs unless you are qualified to. Now, they will have to compete with others for on-the-books jobs where they will either be better which guarantees them a job anyway, or fail which are the same options all Americans have.

    Illegals get off-the-books jobs that are non competitive with our workforce because their employers are breaking the law. How will they continue to hire all of the illegals when the illegals in question have to walk a straight line to become legal. The real argument that these racist have is that the people that are being granted a chance at citizenship are non whites. You took these peoples land and they decided to come home. Don't get mad now.

    Most illegal immigrants are of Amerindian descent and on the west coast and in the southwest, the people that were displaced were the same people.

    Most south of the border illegal immigrants are of Native descent and many have African blood (even if they don't want to admit it) and on the West Coast and in the Southwest, these were the same people.

    most are of Native American descent? this is probably more like "most are mostly white, if not just plain white, with a fair chance of having SOME Native American descent."

    ultimately, here's the thing: Mexico is a country created by Spanish dudes showing up. Mexicans don't really have the right to claim "Mexico was here first."

    well, every time i visit Spain i'm surprised at how white everybody is, there's a lot of blonde hair - blue eye people even, they look nothing like Mexicans. i think it's fair to say Mexicans look the way they do because they tend to have significant Native American genes in their blood i.e. they obviously look much more Native American than European

    Lol, are you serious? i said south of the border which means all of Central and South America. Not all illegals are Mexican and most of them look like short mountain people who are ancestors of the Amerindians. Also, the Spaniards were known to stick their ? in everything. On top of that, even being mostly white isn't good enough for the racist over here but it does help a lot of Latin Americans thumb their nose at even darker people of African Descent. It's a vicious cycle.

    Mexico and Latin America, like the US was created by foreign agents but became their own entity. I was mainly talking about the displaced Natives and their ancestors that were everywhere without the borders of today and they still venture into these lands (even if considered illegal).

    At one point they were mixed with Berbers but the Germanic came from the mountains kicked everybody out (including Jews). This was the precursor for their world conquest.

    pretty sure the same concept of white guys showing up and making up countries applies throughout all of the above

    i would think the argument you'd be making here would be "most of them look like short mountain people, the Native Americans who are ancestors of the people i'm talking about" ... but it's not most of them

    okay, but for example, if a Mexican guy says "just heading back to my old lands" and you consider Mexico's existence legitimate because it is its own entity ... then shouldn't the US ALSO be considered its own entity, able to tell non-citizens to stay off their land? because it's not like Native Americans all got along in ancient harmony
