Deporting these children and families isn't a realistic option. We need to focus our limited resources on securing the border and going after drug dealers, gang members and potential terrorists. "New Mexicans have seen firsthand the problems caused by House Republicans, who have dragged their feet on immigration for too long - it has been 511 days since the Senate passed a bipartisan comprehensive reform bill. Because the House won't act, the president is justified in taking commonsense steps to fix our broken immigration system under existing law. "The president is offering a temporary solution to keep families together, give employers who hire workers on visas more certainty about their workforce, and devote our limited resources to deporting dangerous criminals. It's past time for Congress to work together on a permanent fix of our broken immigration system." Print Email Tweet Next Article	1	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z
