President Biden on Tuesday announced a new policy that
would protect illegal immigrant spouses and children of U.S. citizens
from being deported.
The Department of Homeland Security will
implement the new policy, which will help these individuals in the
country illegally apply for lawful permanent residence without having to
leave the U.S.
“In order to be eligible, noncitizens must – as of June 17, 2024 –
have resided in the United States for 10 or more years and be legally
married to a U.S. citizen, while satisfying all applicable legal
requirements,” the White House explained. “On average, those who are eligible for this process have resided in the U.S. for 23 years.
“Those
who are approved after DHS’s case-by-case assessment of their
application will be afforded a three-year period to apply for permanent
residency,” the statement continued. “They will be allowed to remain
with their families in the United States and be eligible for work
authorization for up to three years. This will apply to all married
couples who are eligible.”
The move will protect about half a
million noncitizen spouses of U.S. citizens and 50,000 noncitizen
children under the age of 21 whose parent is married to a U.S. citizen.
The White House claimed the move to “promote family unity” will “strengthen our economy.”
Those on the right blasted the move.
This Biden executive order will need to be reversed.
And any illegal alien registering to vote must be punished with deportation.
We have rules. People are waiting in line. https://t.co/N1ObvdSBJa

Of
all the steps Pres. Biden could take to secure the border, giving
amnesty to hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants isn’t one of
them.
Which is why it looks like that’s exactly what he’s about to do.https://t.co/cN388W0Dyy
It's not enough for that a Maryland mother-of-five was brutally murdered by a BIDEN ILLEGAL.
Now, Biden's latest scheme is MASS AMNESTY for millions of illegals currently in the country. pic.twitter.com/zmOAvFyjDI
What
Republicans do in response will decide quite a few elections. If they
tweet bumper stickers and do hits on Fox, that won’t cut it. We need
real, bold action. This isn’t just illegal, giving 500,000 amnesty is a
total betrayal of our country and the security of citizens. https://t.co/M6Y68pzYum

Big
news: Biden to announce an unconstitutional executive amnesty for
illegal aliens during a border invasion and in the aftermath of multiple
gruesome raped and murders of Americans at the hands of Biden-freed
illegals. This is an attack on democracy. https://t.co/paVxxML3y2

The
timing of this announcement is a new low for this administration, and
shows that the recent Executive Order is nothing but a politically
motivated sham.
