Congressman: Obama 'Has Been Forced to Deport a Huge Number of Americans'

(CNSNews.com) - Rep. Joe Garcia (D-Fla.) is among the Democrats pressing Congress to take up immigration reform. On Tuesday, he told a conference call that deportations are breaking families apart and leaving children in foster care.

"So the human toll has been horrific. This president, by implementation of existing law, has been forced to deport a huge number of Americans."

Although Garcia may consider the deportees to be "Americans," legally they are not. But they might become citizens if Garcia and other immigration advocates get their way.

Democrats are urging Republicans to sign their discharge petition, which would force a House vote on immigration reform. They said they have 191 of the 218 signatures they need to force the bill to a vote.

"This is our last effort to do this in a legislative fix. That is what we need -- a legislative fix that fixes this problem once and for all," Garcia said.

Rep. Judy Chu (D-Calif.), also part of the conference call, said the people affected by the "broken" immigration system "look like America."

"This morning we're here for Feli, a mother who left her kids behind in the Philippines to find work here and has been waiting 15 years for her kids to be allowed over. We're here for Maria, an American citizen whose husband, if deported back to Mexico, would devastate them and their three kids emotionally and financially. We're here for William,, whose mother in Ireland passed away but could only send a cellphone video of his message to the funeral because he has no path to citizenship."

Chu said Democrats are tired of waiting for Republicans to bring up an immigration reform bill: "And now with this petition, we are saying, put the bill on the floor for a vote. Sign the petition. This is a Hispanic and an Asian issue. It's a black and a white issue. Most importantly, it's an American issue."

Rep. Jared Polis, another Democrat on the conference call, told reporters that if Republicans do not sign the discharge petition, "then the president, as our leader, will do whatever he can to try to address the situation. But there's nothing the president can ever do to confer a pathway to citizenship on people who are here. Only Congress can do that. And even if the president takes limited actions, there will still be the need for this Congress or future Congresses to act."

Polis also said he met with Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson last week: "He gave us a time frame, and there are some fixes that are going to be coming sooner, which is in the next few weeks. And then there are some broader policy changes that will be coming later this year. But I think if we look at a time frame, you know, we're giving them (Republicans) til June."

Democrats say their legislation, H.R. 15, has 200 co-sponsors, including three Republicans -- Reps. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (Fla.) David Valadao (Calif.) and Rep. Jeff Denham (Calif.) But as mentioned above, only 191 House members have signed the discharge petition to bring the bill to a floor vote.

While Congressional Democrats were pressing immigration reform on Capitol Hill, President Obama was discussing immigration reform with faith leaders at the White House.

"The faith leaders shared with the president stories about the impact the failure to fix the immigration system has on families in their congregations and communities. The president expressed deep concern about the pain too many families feel from the separation that comes from our broken immigration system," the White House said in a statement.

"He emphasized that while his administration can take steps to better enforce and administer immigration laws, nothing can replace the certainty of legislative reform and this permanent solution can only be achieved by Congress."

Garcia is a huge liar! Our existing immigration and border laws go largely unenforced. The only deportations Obama is counting in order to deceive people are the illegals that the border patrol puts back across the border each night so they can slip through the next day or the next.

Pro-Amnesty Congressman Lies: Obama Deporting a Huge Number of Americans

Posted on 17 April, 2014 by Rick Wells


Congressman Joe Garcia (D-Fla.) is giving away free citizenship. He, just like the empty-headed vice president is following the trend among Democrats of ignoring and redefining American law. He’s following Biden’s example and equating being a squatter in America with being an America citizen.
On Tuesday he went on the record in a Democrat conference call, dramatically overstating the virtually non-existent deportations of illegal aliens. He said, “So the human toll has been horrific. This president, by implementation of existing law, has been forced to deport a huge number of Americans.”
This partisan hack obviously knows that the president cannot deport citizens. He can deport illegal border crashers, and does so on occasion, but this Congressman is lying when he asserts that any citizens have been deported. Where would they be deported to, Mr. Garcia? They would already be in their home country.
A push is on by Democrats and sellout RINOs to coerce signatures from a couple dozen more weak Republicans, who should surely be signing their Congressional termination papers at the same time. Those who partake in this treason will have to face the voters in less than six months. Americans may be a distracted bunch, but they’re paying enough attention to know when their Congressman gave their job to a foreigner or forced a them to take a pay cut.
A discharge petition would force a house vote on amnesty. The Democrats claim to have 191 of the 218 signatures they need to surrender the rights of the people.
The traitorous Garcia warned, “This is our last effort to do this in a legislative fix.”
Garcia is joined by Rep Judy Chu (D-CA) who is busily telling the personal anecdotal tales of the illegals or their relatives hurt by the “unfair law.” She won’t likely be telling any of the 12 million or so other stories of Americans out of work because a border crasher has what would have been their job or of the millions working part-time or for a lower wage because a glut of cheap labor has reduced their ability to earn.
Another participant in the conference call, Rep Jared Polis (D-CO), issued the threat of more lawless dictatorial acts on the part of the executive branch, declaring that if Republicans don’t cave, “then the president, as our leader, will do whatever he can to try to address the situation.”
The aggressive nature of the Democrat thug tactics make a strong argument that it’s time for the House to get off of their collective butts and take up impeachment of B. Hussein Obama and Eric Holder. It’s gone way too far already and they’ll keep going until they are forced from office.
Rep Polis was speaking vaguely, but described a meeting with DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson and indicated more Obama dictatorial decrees are on the way. Polis said of Johnson, “He gave us a time frame, and there are some fixes that are going to be coming sooner, which is in the next few weeks. And then there are some broader policy changes that will be coming later this year. But I think if we look at a time frame, you know, we’re giving them (Republicans) til June.”
There are three RINOs who have already signed on to the bill, Reps. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (Fla.) David Valadao (Calif.) and Rep. Jeff Denham (Calif.) All three as well as any others who double-cross the American people on amnesty should be forced out of office this November.
Treachery, just as elections, has consequences.
