08/01/2014: Interesting Press Conference of President Today Bringing Up Need for High Skilled Worker Immigration Reform While Touching on Executive Action Issue

The President touched on all kind of issues, but when he go to the immigration issue and his plan to act probably in August brought up three subjects: Firstly DACA expansion issue; secondly, broken high skilled worker immigration system, and thirdly ongoing UAC problem. Reportedly, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce has been working hard to lobby with the White House, DHS, and other stakeholder government agencies to push reform in high skilled immigrant worker programs. It will be interesting to see what programs will be included in the administrative fix of employment-based immigration system.

Obama warns Republicans he will act on his own to address immigration

 

President Obama warned Friday that he will act on his own to address immigration challenges along the southern border, as Congress prepared to leave for the August recess without sending a bill to his desk. 

The House continues to work on passing some version of legislation to address the border crisis, but the Senate already has adjourned without passing a bill and has no votes scheduled until September.  

"While they're out on vacation, I'm going to have to make some tough choices to meet the challenge, with or without Congress," Obama said Friday, speaking to reporters in the the White House briefing room. 

He later added: "I'm going to have to act alone, because we don't have enough resources." 

Unclear is whether Obama plans to use executive authority to achieve narrowly tailored goals, like sending additional resources to the border, or pursue broader and more controversial changes like suspending deportations for illegal immigrants. 

The president reserved pointed words for House Republicans, whom he accused of playing political games right before the five-week recess. 

A spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner countered that "when it comes to the humanitarian crisis on our southern border, President Obama has been completely AWOL" and claimed House Republicans are the "only ones" still working to address the crisis. 

House Republicans are still working to pass a bill to address the humanitarian crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border, where thousands of unaccompanied minors have arrived in recent months. But Obama said the bill is "going nowhere," describing it as a "message bill." 

Though the Senate also has not passed a bill, Obama blasted House Republicans for crafting a measure he described as "extreme and unworkable." Even if it passes the Senate, he said, he would veto it. 

The president also tried to use Republicans' words against them. After a vote on the immigration bill fell apart on Thursday, House GOP leaders put out a statement saying there are "numerous steps the president can and should be taking right now" to secure the borders and safely deport the children. Obama and his allies have used this statement to challenge Republicans' past criticism of the president's use of executive actions. 

Obama said Friday that Republicans were suggesting "I should act on my own." 

Republicans, though, are specifically concerned that Obama will use executive orders to suspend deportations and potentially give work permits to millions of illegal immigrants. They plan to use legislation being debated Friday to include restrictions on such actions. 

Obama's statement also comes amid the quick collapse of a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas. With the brief pause in fighting now over, Israeli forces have moved deeper into southern Gaza in search of a soldier apparently kidnapped earlier Friday. 

Obama defended his administration against criticism about the slow-moving progress toward resolving such problems on the world stage. "There are a lot of conflicts America doesn't resolve," he said. But he defended Secretary of State John Kerry's efforts in the Middle East. 

As for the conflict in Ukraine, he said bluntly that the "evidence suggests" Russia's arming of the separatists there may have resulted in "300 innocent people" dying when the Malaysia Airlines passenger jet was shot down over eastern Ukraine earlier this month.

What Immigration Fixes Might President Obama Do On His Own?

 

House Speaker John Boehner recently ended speculation about whether his chamber would consider companion legislation to the comprehensive immigration reform (CIR) bill that was passed by the Senate over a year ago. The answer: a flat "no," kicking the can down the road until - presumably - sometime in the 114th Congress, when the GOP hopes to have a larger caucus in both houses, and thus greater leverage to get a bill more to its liking.

But even a Republican takeover of the Senate would not guarantee quick and comprehensive action on immigration reform, because the GOP remains deeply divided on the issue. We'll be in much the same boat if the Democrats retain control of the Senate, and pass a new CIR measure that's similar to last year's bill. Once again, everyone would be forced to wait on the House of Representatives. Either way, we're likely to be stuck with the status quo for some time to come.

That said, the pressure to fix our immigration system is intensifying, if anything, not just because of the well-publicized crisis on our border, but because so many of our high-tech industries are having difficulty recruiting qualified STEM candidates, and are feeling the pinch of an immigration system that strictly limits the number of H1B and L-1 candidates who can get visas each year.

Enter President Obama, who has pledged to do everything he lawfully can to modernize and streamline our immigration system, to make it more responsive to present-day needs. The White House has yet to announce any specific administrative fixes, but there is informed speculation about what may be under consideration.

Citing sources familiar with internal White House policy debates, Patrick Thibodeau writes, in Computerworld, that the administration may seek, "ways to make it easier for U.S. firms to get H1B visas," possibly by giving priority to U.S.-based firms. That might be easily circumvented, however, Thibodeau notes, if foreign companies simply applied through their U.S.-based subsidiaries. [See Obama has Big Options for Green Card, H1B Reform without Congress, by Patrick Thibodeau, Computerworld, 09.Jul.2014.] Alternatively, says Thibodeau, the administration might impose a 50-50 rule to cap H1B usage at no more than half a company's U.S. workforce, though he hastens to add that "the legal ability to do this without congressional action is not clear."

Another potential change: the White House could make more employment-based green cards available by excluding dependents from the limitation of 140,000 green cards per year, Thibodeau writes. Under the current interpretation of the law, the cap is divided between workers and their dependents. Former U.S. Congressman Bruce Morrison (D-CT), who played a leading role in creating the present system, told Computerworld that current law is subject to interpretation, and does not require dependents to be counted against the cap, though this has been the long-settled practice.

Meanwhile, the Washington Post suggests that the Obama administration might finesse the problem of undocumented immigration by providing a "'parole in place' for unlawful immigrants who are minors, parents, or spouses of U.S. citizens - people who are otherwise eligible for green cards - and allow[ing] them to apply for green cards without leaving the country." [See How Obama Can Fix Immigration without Congress, by Alex Nowrasteh, Washington Post, 08.Jul.2014.] Other administrative measures might simplify the agricultural and seasonal guest worker visa programs, the Post article contends.

Having waited so long for some positive news on immigration reform, the prospect of even a limited administrative version is tantalizing - but until the President announces precisely what he plans to do - and how - it will be business as usual for our immigration system.
