It appears that they are not backtracking very far.
quote:The agency, part of the Department of Homeland Security, had sent letters informing those who had asked for a renewal, which the immigrants must make every two years, that it was no longer entertaining such requests. The letters said that the immigrants must leave the country within 33 days, or face deportation.
On Monday, the agency said in a statement that while limiting the program was appropriate, officials would complete the caseload that was pending on August 7.
The statement said that deportation proceedings had not been initiated against anyone who had received the letter. However, it did not say whether it would continue to grant immigrants extensions to stay in the country or whether the program would be continued after current applications are processed.
When asked for clarification, an agency official said the agency is taking immediate corrective action to reopen previously pending cases for consideration.
Whether a very limited version of deferred action will continue forward at U.S.C.I.S. is still under review. More information will be forthcoming, said the official, who only agreed to speak on background.
Translation: we're going to wait until the hullabaloo dies down and off 'em on the down low.
And Faith will be cheering them on.
Do you guys never stop with the lying accusations?
Do you ever try to defend the barbarities of this administration? There's not one lie in my posts on this subject. I even dug up a post from an ultra-right-wing site confirming the existence of the termination of the program. (Of course they had to lie about the legal status of the people in the program.)
The fact is that Ken Cuccinelli and Stephen Miller, with Trump’s blessing, want to kill sick brown kids to let everyone know there's no evil to which they won't sink to get rid of immigrants legal and illegal.
The fact is also that you haven't lifted a finger to check my facts. You assume they're lies because they don't fit your dogma.
Finally, it's a fact that you standing by silent without any interest in reality or compassion makes you complicit in the brutality.
It's really sad when someone's fantasy world leads them to want innocent sick kids executed.
quote:"Sen. Chuck Schumer, who you will be hearing from later tonight, has repeatedly supported a physical barrier in the past along with many other Democrats," Trump said Jan. 8 in his prime time address on the border wall. "They changed their mind only after I was elected president."
That’s a mischaracterization of the barrier that won Democratic support 13 years ago.
Just over half of Democrats in the Senate voted for the Secure Fence Act of 2006, which was signed into law by President George W. Bush, including then-Sens. Barack Obama, Chuck Schumer and Hillary Clinton. Most Democrats in the House voted against it, including Rep. Nancy Pelosi.
The law authorized a fence along about 700 miles of the border between the U.S.-Mexico border. By 2015, U.S. Customs and Border Protection had constructed 654 miles of fencing, the Government Accountability Office reported.
The fence was different from the wall Trump promised to build on the campaign trail, which he said would be made of "hardened concrete" as tall as "95 stories" with a "very big, very beautiful door."
Trump derided the 2006 fence as too modest during the 2016 campaign he said it was "not a wall" but a "little fence" that could be scaled with a ladder.
"Now we got lucky because it was such a little wall, it was such a nothing wall, no, they couldn't get their environmental probably a snake was in the way or a toad," Trump said. (Actually, the project didn’t face environmental hurdles; we rated that part of the claim Mostly False.)
So what the Democrats voted for was much much smaller in size and extent, and has been in place for years. If it was the same thing why would Trump denigrate it and want to replace it.
Of course no response from Faith. She'll just repeat the lie some time in the near future.
I see you still refuse to denounce killing kids. Obviously you're for it. IOIYAR.
I quoted and gave you a link to a web site so far right they'd call you a liberal. It's not a matter of left vs right, it's a matter of deliberately killing sick kids.
You made no response. You've shown your true colors again.
