"Rep. Lamar Smith, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and a  critic of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy,  called the latest changes an example of how the Obama  administration "routinely puts illegal immigrants first at the  expense of the American people."

  "Administration officials intentionally made these guidelines  vague enough so that potentially millions of illegal immigrants  can qualify. And now the administration has revised their  guidelines to be specific enough to protect unscrupulous  employers from facing legal action for knowingly hiring illegal  immigrants that have applied for the amnesty program," he said".

  "Since July, transcript requests at Aurora Public Schools in  suburban Denver jumped to 1,500, up by more than two-thirds  compared to the same period last year. More than half of this  year's requests are tied to the new immigration policy."
