Amnesty recently given to young illegals here in the US and?

once identified, will their parents be deported for illegal entry?

Update:

Brief research on cost and time to deport indicates possibly Trillions of dollars and years to deport. One could assume that the younger illegals will not have to out parents, if they are over age 18.

In all fairness to the POTUS, his recent action is no different than Mario Rubio's (R) plan. Obama may have just beat Rubio to the punch.

    I would be agreeable to that. If the parents truly wanted a "better life" for their children, they would be willing to make that sacrifice. But since they weren't thinking about their childrens future when they ignored the laws of our country, I don't see that happening.

    One good thing about this, we will know who is here illegally and when this is over turned, we'll know right where they are.

    probably not. in all likelihood, they'll probably pass a regulation protecting the information on the application forms to prevent just that sort of thing. they've done that before with other programs going back 20 years or more, so it wouldn't be something unique to Obama.

    it's certainly put a dent in Romney's day. he's still trying to figure out how to react. he hasn't called it an amnesty program, by the way. he doesn't officially oppose Obama's new executive order, either. yesterday, he was reduced to saying he doesn't think it should have been done this way, not that it shouldn't have been done. Rubio, who seems to be Romney's favorite for the VP slot came out with his own proposed Dream Act last month. I imagine Romney was planning to announce something of his own once he made Rubio his choice, but probably after the convention, since this wouldn't play well with the Tea Party contingent. So, Obama has beaten him to the punch and Romney is left with trying to regroup.

    Yeah right, Obama isn't deporting anyone anymore. I really really hate him now thanks to this BS policy
