WASHINGTON – Twenty-two Senate Democrats are pressuring President Barack Obama to delay deportations of certain young immigrants in the U.S. illegally.

The senators ask in a letter for deferrals of any deportations of the young immigrants brought to the U.S. by parents who arrived or stayed illegally.

The senators also suggest smaller steps the president can take to help the young immigrants, such as making sure they know they can request deportation delays.

In the letter sent Wednesday, the senators acknowledge that Obama must enforce the law but say exercising prosecutorial discretion has a long history in the U.S. and is consistent with the rule of law.

Last year, the House passed the DREAM Act, which would have allowed the youths to stay in the U.S., but it failed in the Senate.

Why do Democrats, who usually support things such as minimum wage, Family and Medical Leave, OSHA, unions and other forms of worker protections insist on allowing brown people to be used to avoid all those things? It is just one the world's most incredible contradictions. Protect workers and families ...but not THOSE wrkers and families. Require employers to pay for such benefits but themn provide them a labor base that is exempt from them. Completely strange. Racist. I cannot think of any other reason.

Cheap labor, cheap votes, corruption among just a few examples.

That isn't racist?
