    Dallas County ranks fifth in population of illegals eligible for deportation relief

    Dallas County ranks fifth in population of immigrants potentially eligible for deportation relief, says MPI

    Dallas County ranks fifth in large populations potentially eligible for deportation relief through the Obama administration’s new immigration measures.

    The rankings are Los Angeles, Harris County, Orange County, Cook County and Dallas County, according to a fresh report here from the D.C.-based Migration Policy Institute.


    The five account for over one-fifth of the total “potentially eligible.”

    Why careful parsing of the phrase?

    MPI researchers estimate that a little less than 60 percent will actually qualify for the two major programs that are part of the series of executive actions announced Nov. 20 by President Barack Obama. Up to 5.2 million undocumented immigrants are estimated to qualify for the various measures, according to MPI.


    That means many nonprofits that help immigrants will have to muscle up and even double or triple “capacity” or staff, they said.


    Another highlight: As some in the Dallas area surmised, many undocumented immigrants are among the freshly arrived, along with plenty of displaced California-born U.S. citizens. Muscular economy is the reason, MPI staff said. Same is true for Harris County.


    The MPI digs deep into 2012 Census Bureau data known as the American Community Survey.


    The report was detailed this morning just as a hearing opened in a Brownsville federal courtroom in which Texas governor-elect Greg Abbott seeks to block the start-up of the immigration measures.

    States picked sides in this battle. Abbot has more governors on his team.


    Team Obama has around a dozen states — plus police chiefs and county sheriffs, like Lupe Valdez, who filed a friend-of-the-court brief.


    Big issues: Merits and Demerits for the states.


    Here’s more on the hearing with details from the briefs.
