WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama says his plan to stop
deporting younger illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children
will make the system "more fair, more efficient and more just."
The
president says it "makes no sense to expel talented young people" who
are essentially Americans. He says he was taking the action in the
absence of action by Congress "to fix our broken system."
Obama's
election-year initiative should help him among Hispanic voters. It will
begin granting young immigrants work permits, affecting as many as
800,000 young people who have lived in fear of deportation.
A man
in the Rose Garden asked Obama while he was speaking, "Why do you favor
foreigners over American workers?" Obama responded that "this is the
right thing to do."
