Is Trump planning to legalize undocumented immigrants? That's what CNN says
President Donald Trump, who in his first speech on the State of the Nation on Tuesday will emphasize its tightening of immigration laws, is on the other hand weighing immigration reform that leads to the regularization of undocumented immigrants who have not committed Crimes.
That is what a senior Republican administration official who spoke to CNN said, the network said, which did not identify the source of this surprising revelation.
The source said the president believes that the country is now in a good time to adopt new legislation on migration issues that includes a "moderation" of positions on both sides in this debate. "There has to be a point of union," the official said, according to the network.
The possible proposal would not include a path to citizenship for the undocumented - with the exception of young dreamers - but a way to regularize their presence in the country, without fear of deportation. The conditions would be to have committed no crime, pay taxes and work.
"There has to be a negotiation," the CNN source said. "People are tired [of this subject]"
The words of this anonymous senior official of the White House caused astonishment, if you take into account the speech of the tycoon throughout the campaign and his actions since his arrival in the White House, which have resulted in a hardening in the persecution Of undocumented immigrants.
In recent days there has been a proliferation of cases of undocumented immigrants settled in the country and without a recent criminal record that have been apprehended by Immigration.
That is why they were received with some skepticism. "Trump said in the campaign: 'It has to go' on the 11 million undocumented. Now a White House source is talking about legalization. Really? Which is true? ", Asked in a tweet the co-presenter of the Noticiero Univisión Jorge Ramos.
