Estimated 34 Million Cards Needed – with 4 to 9 Million cards needed per year if Obama Plan Succeeds

The U.K.’s Mail Online reported Monday that the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has published a draft solicitation for immigration ID cards in anticipation of a surge in immigrants. The report was relayed by Breitbart.

The proposal anticipates a need for a minimum of 4 million cards to be issued by 2016. It is estimated that as many as 34 million cards will be printed before the surge of immigrants levels off. President Obama has promised the pro-amnesty lobby that he will issue Green Cards to the illegal aliens already here if the congress does not act to  do so after the General Election on November 4, 2014.

Obama has delayed the controversial amnesty Executive Orders until after the congressional elections to minimize damage to Democrat candidates. It is unlikely that the House Republicans will vote for an amnesty bill and the Senate could add to their conservative minority should the GOP gain seats in the Senate. This scenario virtually forces Obama to take unilateral action if he is to keep his promise to illegals, the Chamber of Commerce, the Catholic Church and the American Communist Party that has advocated for decades the agenda President Obama is implementing.

The Illegals want a fast track to citizenship and the advantages of minority status to provide access to employment over American citizens.

The Chamber of Commerce wants cheap labor for their large corporate members, including corporate fruit and vegetable growers.

The Catholic Church sees immigrants, especially Hispanic, adding to their church membership.

Progressives, whether socialists, Communists, labor union bosses, or “low information” government dependent fellow travelers, see millions of new voters keeping them in power forever.

The Republican Party national leadership is being led by the short-sighted Chamber of Commerce to participate in arranging their own demise. The lethargy of the Republican National Committee and Chairman cannot be logically explained, unless they are afraid of the regime in power and hope by betraying their conservative roots, to be given a seat at the table with the regime. If they knew something about history, they would know that is a very dangerous game.

A total of 862,000 individuals have been approved by USCIS and granted amnesty under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program also known as DREAMers. These are individuals who came to the United States illegally as children . This was accomplished by Executive Order without approval by Congress.

Data from the U. S. Census Bureau and reported by the Center for Immigration Studies reveals that the immigrant population, both legal and illegal was 1.4 million during the first three years of the Obama Administration (2010 – 2013).

By July 2013, the U. S. immigrant population grew to 41.3 million.

“The 41.3 million immigrants amounted to double the immigrant population in 1990, almost triple the number reported in 1980, and more than quadruple the number in 1970, when it was 9.6 million,” according to a report in the October 20, 2014 New American.

“Having reached these levels in 2013, immigrants (both legal and illegal) comprised 13.1 percent of the U. S. population, which is the highest percentage in 93 years. As recently as 1980, immigrants made up only 6.2 percent of the population.”

It is surprising to learn that government reports show that the  greatest number of immigrants (documented and undocumented) do not come from Mexico and Central America, but from  Asia, the Middle East and Africa.

Opponents of the massive amnesty scheme indicate that the only acceptable solution to the problem is to close the borders and enforce current immigration laws.
