His Aunt was ordered deported 5 years ago.. no more appeals.. "get out of the country NOW" deported. He claims he "didn't know" she was an illegal alien.. Furthermore, she was living in state housing paid for by American taxpayers. Guess what.. She's still living there. She's also been granted another hearing to determine her status, despite the fact that her previous denial was not appealed and she failed to leave the country (went out of status).myfoxboston.com Now.. according to what I'm reading, this is a violation of the asylum process:Furthermore, the new act precludes asylum to anyone who had previously applied for asylum and had the application denied , and for any alien who has been convicted of an aggravated felony. Another provision of the new act states that if the Attorney General determines that an alien has made a frivolous application for asylum, the alien shall be permanently ineligible for any other benefit under the US immigration laws. Also, the new act states that an applicant for asylum is not entitled to employment authorization, but the Attorney General may permit it by regulation. Naturally, an attorney may represent an applicant for asylum, provided that it is at no expense to the government.Finally, the new act states that there is no judicial review of denials or determinations relating specifically to applications filed after the time limit; determinations relating to resettlement in a third country; applications filed after a previous denial ; and denials related to a finding of terrorist activity.rapidimmigration.com I'd REALLY LIKE TO KNOW what they are citing as authorization for initiating a review of the previous asylum denial and deportation order. This is what Obama's all about.. Do as I say, not as I do. Btw, did you ever hear about Obama's half-brother living in a slum in Kenya on $1/day? Hawk
