Groups Call for Deportation Suspension for
Immigrants Affected by Overhaul
By JULIA PRESTON New York Times
Labor, Latino and immigrant
advocate groups called on President Obama on Monday to suspend deportations of
illegal immigrants who could be eligible for a pathway to citizenship under a
bipartisan bill to overhaul the immigration system that is under consideration
in the Senate.
Among the organizations demanding
that the White House halt most removals were the A.F.L.-C.I.O., the country’s
largest federation of labor unions; the Mexican American Legal Defense and
Educational Fund, or Maldef, a Latino civil rights group; the National Day
Laborer Organizing Network; and United We Dream, a national group representing
young illegal immigrants. They said Mr. Obama should act immediately, even
before Congress votes on the bill.
