So it was a very
confusing policy that emerged without consistency under President
Obama. However, he exercised a legal prosecutorial discretion when they
looked at each case on an individual basis. But I recall when his Secretary of Homeland Security, Janet
Napolitano, came before the Judiciary Committee to testify about this
program on DACA, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals--or some
might say the deferred action for children of aliens. Her testimony and
the memos that came down, the Morton memos, set up four different
categories of people who would be granted a quasi-amnesty underneath
the President's policy. There, Secretary Napolitano testified over and over again, and it
reflected the document itself which, seven times, referenced on an
individual basis only--on an individual basis only--seven times.
