MEMO: "A NON-LEGISLATIVE VERSION OF 'AMNESTY'"
Obama Administration Memo Cites Non-Legislative Amnesty As Possible Option On Illegal Immigration
USCIS MEMO: "NON-LEGISLATIVE VERSION OF 'AMENSTY'" OPTION FOR THE ADMINISTRATION
MEMO TO U.S. CITIZENSHIP AND IMMIGRATION SERVICES DIRECTOR: "This memorandum offers administrative relief options to promote family unity, foster economic growth, achieve significant process improvements and reduce the threat of removal for certain individuals present in the United States without authorization. It includes recommendations regarding implementation timeframes and required resources." (Denise A. Vanison et al, Memorandum For Director Alejandro N. Mayorkas, “RE: Administrative Alternatives To Comprehensive Immigration Reform,” U.S. Citizenship And Immigration Services, P.1)
· "Summary: In The Absence Of Comprehensive Immigration Reform, USCIS Can Extend Benefits And/Or Protections To Many Individuals And Groups By Issuing New Guidance And Regulations…” (Denise A. Vanison et al, Memorandum For Director Alejandro N. Mayorkas, "RE: Administrative Alternatives To Comprehensive Immigration Reform," U.S. Citizenship And Immigration
Services,P.1)
· "To Promote Family Unity, USCIS Could Reinterpret Two 1990 General Counsel Opinions Regarding The Ability Of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) Applicants Who Entered The United States (U.S.) Without Inspection To Adjust Or Change Status. This Would Enable Thousands Of Individuals In TPS Status To Become Lawful Permanent Residents." (Denise A. Vanison et al, Memorandum For Director Alejandro N. Mayorkas, "RE: Administrative Alternatives To Comprehensive Immigration Reform," U.S. Citizenship And Immigration Services, P.1)
· "…USCIS Could Grant Deferred Action. This Would Permit Individuals For Whom Relief May Become Available In The Future To Live And Work In The U.S. Without Fear Of Removal." (Denise A. Vanison et al, Memorandum For Director Alejandro N. Mayorkas, "RE: Administrative Alternatives To Comprehensive Immigration Reform," U.S. Citizenship And Immigration Services, P.2)
· "Rather Than Making Deferred Action Widely Available To Hundreds Of Thousands And As A Non-Legislative Version Of 'Amnesty,' USCIS Could Tailor The Use Of This Discretionary Option For Particular Groups Such As Individuals Who Would Be Eligible For Relief Under The DREAM Act (an estimated 50,000), or under section 249 of the Act (Registry), who have resided in the U.S. since 1996 (or as of a different date designed to move forward the Registry provision now limited to entries before January 1, 1972)."

Mayorkas, "RE: Administrative Alternatives To Comprehensive Immigration Reform," U.S. Citizenship And Immigration Services, P. 11)Technorati tags: Democrats politics Republican gop republicans Barack Obama Obama
