Just a matter of time before Obama issues a blanked amnesty EO.

At a press conference on Thursday, Reps. Luis Guiterrez (D-Ill.) and Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.) joined immigration activists to call on President Barack Obama to stop deportations and allow illegal aliens to have work permits in the latest effort to compel the president to make sweeping changes to immigration law through executive orders.
They also called on expanding the Deferred Action on Childhood Arrivals (DACA) to parents of so-called Dreamers and others that would qualify for a path to citizenship as spelled out in the immigration bill (S.744) as passed by the Senate in June 2013 but not taken up by the House.
“I believe the president of the United States can take the kind of broad, executive action that can help millions of people stop their deportation and be in deportation proceedings, No. 1, or possibly ever be deported, and give them a work permit,” said Guiterrez, who with Grijalva is also a member of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC).
“Now it is the authority of the president to provide that security, that comfort to millions and millions of families,” Grijalva said.
