    Immigration Advocate Sheds Light into Wave of Unaccompanied Minors

    Immigration Advocate Sheds Light into Wave of Unaccompanied Minors

    McALLEN - The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program may be behind the recent surge in unaccompanied minors entering the United States illegally, an immigration advocate said.

    Tania Chavez, a representative with La Union del Pueblo Entero, also known as LUPE, said coyotes in Central America may be telling people that children can take advantage of the program and find work in the United States.

    The Department of Homeland Security announced the process to renew enrollment in DACA Thursday. The program was set in place in 2012 and allows undocumented individuals who arrived in the United States before the age of 15 to obtain a temporary work permit.

    Ramirez said there are many regulations and requirements to qualify for DACA.

    "This is not something that new undocumented immigrants will be able to qualify for," she said.

    Chavez says she expects an increase of people trying to obtain DACA. She said those already enrolled in DACA must renew their permit to keep from being deported.

    Now why would an American President create a humanitarian emergency that he has'nt prepared to manage? Because he does not have the cognizance to foresee the consequences of his actions? Did'nt we have one of those for President in 1986? Then it becomes apparent that they do not have great ability to choose aides and assistants, cabinet secretaries, to advise him any better either! So, what do we have for a government, have we had very similar government for 28 years? These are questions for voters to ask themselves prior to going to the polls!
