Report: Obama Admin Suspends Program to Allow DREAMers into Military

President Barack Obama's administration has reportedly suspended a program it enacted via executive action last month that would allow recipients of Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) to join the U.S. military.

According to a Thursday Politico report, Army officials confirmed that the MAVNI (Military Accessions Vital to the National Interest) program "has been suspended while the service tries to finalize screening procedures for the immigrants who want to enlist."

Last month, the Obama administration, via executive action, expanded the program—which allows "foreign nationals with high-demand skills, mostly rare foreign language expertise, or specialized health care training"—to allow DACA recipients entry into the military. The Obama administration determined that MAVNI would now be "open to immigrants without a proper visa if they came to the U.S. with their parents before age 16" and received temporary amnesty through DACA in 2012.

In what has been described as a "a major bureaucratic screw-up by the Obama administration," the program now has not been accepting new applications since "earlier this month." An Army official conceded to the outlet that "procedures to enlist DACAs require additional coordination (not limited to security screening) which is ongoing at this time.” As Politico noted, the Pentagon "bars recruits who have family members without legal status," but "almost all DACA recipients have relatives who are" illegal immigrants. In addition DREAMers who were brought to the country illegally also lack an I-94 card, which "is completed when foreigners enter the United States." DACA recipients reportedly are unable to pass the ARMY's "high-level security check" for MAVNI applicants.

The Obama administration apparently did not take these requirements into consideration before signing off on the executive action to expand MAVNI.

My feelings are that he sent our Military to Africa (without protective gear) so they will get Ebola and die and now he is replacing the military with illegals cause they will be loyal to him and kill Americans when he turns the military on us.........

Someone on the JCS grew a set of balls?

Barry's terrified of a civilian uprising; 320 million guns owned by 92 million Americans and the Military arresting him just like Morsi of Egypt; he got rid of a lot; but there are too many that are loyal to this country ... Barry now has to try and start WWIII to get rid of Christians.... The West Christians against the Orthodox Christians of the east... Leaving Illegal Aliens to terrorize the home front.... This is nothing more than a Bankster Coup that's using Barry as a hit man and Soros giving the orders
