Quotes

..."It makes sense to cease the removals today of the people that Congress could make citizens tomorrow," states NDLON. "The President brought relief to Dreamers and has the ability to extend that same relief to their parents, neighbors, and all who could become citizens under immigration reform."
"We saw from the deferred action announcement that what the president did was not only good for immigrant students," says Newman,  "it was good for the process of pushing immigration reform forward, and it was good for him politically. It was sort of a trifecta for him."
"The deportations must stop, and they must stop right now" Ana Avendaño, spokeswoman on immigration topics for the AFL-CIO, said in a teleconference
"President Obama is just the latest in a long line of democratic presidents, that have run afoul of the NRA, and been burned .... So this is not unfamiliar territory, we knew that President Obama was taking a bold step by pushing for gun control laws that were going to be hard to adopt, it turns out that his strategy for overcoming that resistance wasn't good enough."
