USCIS Memo Details Administration's Plan to Provide Mass Amnesty Through Administrative Actions

An 11 page memo from the USCIS proposes 18 different ways for the Obama Administration to essentially eliminate our borders through regulatory fiat and in clear violation of the letter and the spirit of U.S. immigration laws. Clearly the President is attempting an end run of the laws of the US, which Obama swore an oath to faithfully execute. The memo was drafted by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Director Alejandro Mayorkas. Other contributors to the draft are Denise Vanison, Roxana Bacon from the Chief Councel's office, Debra Rogers from Field Operations, and Donald Neufield from Service Center Operations were also listed as authors of the memo. It is important to understand the background of the kind of people who have the ear of the President, so it comes as no surprise that most of these authors strongly support helping illegal immigrants utilize various "questionable methods" to remain in the US. This kind of response by the President undoubtedly will cause such an outrage by true Americans that they should begin treasonous charges leading to his impeachment and removal from office.
