Obama-Nominated Judge: New Illegal Immigrants Must Be Released

White House Correspondent

A federal judge has ordered the federal government to grant U.S. civil
rights to illegals who are caught at the border, and to release all
migrants except for those who may endanger Americans.

The migrants “may have legitimate claims to asylum … [and] their presence
here may become permanent … [so] that they are entitled to the protection
of the Due Process Clause, especially when it comes to deprivations of
liberty,” said the judge
<https://ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show_public_doc?2015cv0011-33>, who
was nominated by President Barack Obama.

Under current rules, border-crossers who are released are also allowed to
compete against Americans for jobs, and to attend U.S. schools and to
receive welfare, until their cases are decided by immigration judges.

But immigration courts are already so clogged with asylum-seekers that many
cases aren’t decided for several years. The slow process gives migrants
many opportunities to find other legal avenues to become citizens, and full
access to U.S anti-poverty programs for themselves, their parents and their
children.

Unless reversed, the decision opens a huge hole in U.S. border security,
and likely will dramatically increase illegal immigration and competition
for jobs, partly because immigration enforcement has already been greatly
reduced

by President Barack Obama.

The judge’s decision was released late Friday, but political pushback is
growing.

“If liberal federal judges and the president are determined to trash the
rule of law in this manner, we are on the verge of a full-blown
constitutional crisis,” said Jonathan Tobin, an editor of Commentary
magazine
<https://www.commentarymagazine.com/2015/02/22/immigration-and-the-end-of-the-rule-of-law-asylum-executive-orders/>,
which generally favors large-scale immigration.

“As much as there is reason to grant many illegals a path to legality if
not citizenship, without first securing the border, such proposals ought to
be off the table,” he wrote in a short article titled “Immigration and the
End of the Rule of Law.”

The decision comes amid a partisan standoff over the 2015 budget for the
Department of Homeland Security.

Obama and his political allies are insisting the agency be allowed to
implement his November amnesty plan, even though a court ruled Feb. 16 that
Obama’s plan violated federal law. Unless the Democrats stop their
filibuster of the 2015 agency budget, they will force a partial shutdown of
the agency by Feb. 28.

The Democrats’ amnesty is so lawless that the GOP should change the
Senate’s filibuster rules to allow the GOP majority to defund Obama’s
November amnesty, columnist Charles Krauthammer wrote
<http://dailycaller.com/2015/02/22/krauthammer-end-filibuster-to-block-obamas-amnesty-grab/>
Feb. 19.

The judge’s decision
<https://ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show_public_doc?2015cv0011-33>
requires border officers to go through a lengthy legal process if they want
to keep a border-crosser in jail while a judge decides if the illegal is
repatriated or put on a path to citizenship. “Such detention harms putative
class members in myriad ways, and as various mental health experts have
testified, it is particularly harmful to minor children,” the judge
declared.

The government “maintains that one particular individual may be civilly
detained for the sake of sending a message of deterrence to other Central
American individuals who may be considering immigration,” the judge
wrote. But the government’s “current policy of considering deterrence is
likely unlawful … [and] causes irreparable harm to mothers and children
seeking asylum.”

The anti-jailing decision increases the already huge incentive for millions
of foreigners to fly, sail, walk or drive across the U.S. border, and then
claim asylum from foreign criminal gangs, political oppression or domestic
abuse. In March 2013, Gallup reported that at least 138 million foreigners
<http://www.gallup.com/poll/161435/100-million-worldwide-dream-life.aspx>
want to migrate into the United States.

The decision was issued late Friday, Feb. 20, by Judge James Boasberg of
D.C.-based Federal District Court for the District of Columbia. Boasberg
was nominated by Obama, and was confirmed in 2011.

Obama is likely to appeal the decision, partly because it reduces his
ability to manage the inflow of migrants.

Obama favors high levels of immigration
<http://dailycaller.com/2014/11/25/obama-americans-have-no-right-to-favor-americans/>
but he knows the public is overwhelmingly opposed
<http://www.gallup.com/poll/181313/dissatisfied-immigration-levels.aspx> to
greater immigration.

The American public — including most Latino voters — is strongly opposed to
lax border controls.

The immigration issue has dominated federal politics since 2013, when
Obama’s allies in the Senate tried to push through a bill that would have
increased immigration and given an amnesty to all 12 million illegal
immigrants now living in the United States.

Since then, Obama has lost the battle
<http://dailycaller.com/2015/02/16/georgia-poll-shows-huge-opposition-to-obamas-amnesty/>
for
public opinion
<http://dailycaller.com/2015/02/16/georgia-poll-shows-huge-opposition-to-obamas-amnesty/>,
lost the congressional debate over immigration, lost his Senate majority,
and in February lost the first round of a lawsuit that is trying to block
his November amnesty for 5 million illegal immigrants.

But Obama has used his power over the immigration agencies to minimize
enforcement
<http://bethepeopletv.com/senator-jeff-sessions-documents-president-obamas-lawlessness-immigration/>
of immigration laws. Since 2009, Obama’s senior deputies have repeatedly
instructed his immigration agencies to reduce enforcement of immigration
laws. For example, since 2009, his aides have given work-permits and
temporary residency to 4.7 million migrants
<http://cis.org/government-data-reveal-millions-of-new-work-permits>,
including illegal immigrants, tourists, guest-workers and students.

That 4.7 million is in addition to the annual inflow of 1 million legal
immigrants. Roughly 4 million American youths enter the workforce each year.

In November 2014, one in every five U.S. jobs
<http://dailycaller.com/2014/12/19/fewer-us-born-americans-have-jobs-now-than-in-2007/>
was held by a foreign-born worker, up from one-in-six jobs in January 2010,
according to federal data <http://www.bls.gov/webapps/legacy/cpsatab7.htm>
highlighted by the Center for Immigration Studies
<http://cis.org/despite-recent-job-growth-native-employment-still-below-2007>
.

In 2014, 130,000 Central American asylum-seeking adults
<http://dailycaller.com/2014/12/05/obama-deputies-free-30862-foreign-criminals/>,
youths and children crossed the border. Under Obama’s rules, a large
percentage were immediately allowed to get work permits plus access to
welfare programs and free schooling, ad were allowed to ask judges for
permanent residency.

American’s hostile reaction to the inflow that killed Obama’s top
second-term legislative priority — passage of a comprehensive immigration
reform law that would have sharply increased legal immigration.

The public’s hostility also contributed to the Democrats’ crushing defeat
in the November Senate elections, when the GOP gained nine seats and won a
strong 54 vote-majority in the Senate.
