Republicans Attack Obama's Immigration Fix

The GOP and anti-immigrant politicians are going on the offense with their tired old rhetoric in regards to immigration. This time they are going after President Obama's recent proposal to help keep some families together that have family members that are in the country undocumented. Republican leadership are calling the move purely political, while their stance is to deport everyone who is undocumented in this country. Last Friday, the Obama administration put out a statement declaring a rule change that would help immigrant visa applicants to remain with their parents or spouses who are United States citizens, instead of tearing families apart during the application period. Presently, anyone who is in the country undocumented but are either married, have parents or immediate relatives that are United States citizens are permitted under immigration law to become legal United States residents. Part of the problem though is that the current law in these cases makes the applicant go back to their country of origin as a condition of getting a legal visa. Currently there is a waiver so that the applicant can remain in the United States during the visa process but receiving one is very difficult and takes a very long time. The Obama proposal will allow visa applicants to remain in the country during the visa application process and if the applicant meets qualifications, they will be issued a provisional waiver in the United States and can remain there before they have to go to their home countries to get their visas.

Fix ataque republicanos de Obama Inmigración

Los políticos republicanos y anti-inmigrantes van a la ofensiva con su retórica vieja y cansada en lo que respecta a la inmigración. Esta vez se van después de la reciente propuesta del presidente Obama para ayudar a mantener unidas a las familias que algunos tienen familiares que se encuentran en el país sin papeles. Líderes republicanos están pidiendo el movimiento puramente político, mientras que su postura es deportar a todos los que están indocumentados en este país. El viernes pasado, el gobierno de Obama emitió un comunicado declarando un cambio de reglas que ayudan a los solicitantes de visa de inmigrante para permanecer con sus padres o cónyuges que son ciudadanos de Estados Unidos, en vez de separa a familias durante el período de aplicación. En la actualidad, cualquier persona que esté en el país sin papeles, pero están casados ​​o tienen padres o parientes cercanos que son ciudadanos de Estados Unidos están permitidas por la ley de inmigración legal para convertirse en residentes de Estados Unidos. Parte del problema es que aunque la ley vigente en estos casos hace que el solicitante volver a su país de origen como condición para obtener una visa legal. Actualmente no existe una renuncia por lo que el solicitante puede permanecer en los Estados Unidos durante el proceso de visado, pero que recibe es muy difícil y lleva mucho tiempo. La propuesta de Obama permitirá a los solicitantes de visa para permanecer en el país durante el proceso de solicitud de visado y si el solicitante cumpla con los requisitos, se les entregará una exención provisional en los Estados Unidos y puede permanecer allí antes de tener que ir a sus países de origen para obtener sus visas.
