Obama to deport illegals by ‘priority’

Excerpts:

Bowing to pressure from immigrant rights activists, the Obama administration
said Thursday that it will halt deportation proceedings on a case-by-case
basis against illegal immigrants who meet certain criteria, such as
attending school, having family in the military or having primary
responsible for other family members’ care.

The move marks a major step for President Obama, who for months has said he
does not have broad categorical authority to halt deportations and said he
must follow the laws as Congress has written them.
...
The top House Republican on the Judiciary Committee said the move is part of
a White House plan “to grant backdoor amnesty to illegal immigrants.”

“The Obama administration should enforce immigration laws, not look for ways
to ignore them,” said Rep. Lamar Smith, Texas Republican. “The Obama
administration should not pick and choose which laws to enforce.
Administration officials should remember the oath of office they took to
uphold the Constitution and the laws of the land.”
