You can see how that's declined from 21.4 and 21.7% in 2009, 2010, to only 2.2% in the last year, 2014. So I think it's. This is certainly evidence, and it's my concern that President Obama's deferred action now in this latest round of memorandum could create that same dynamic, actually increase the incentives for illegal immigration. no matter what the memorandums say, actually create the incentives for more people to come into this country illegally, increase the pressure on the border.

CLAIM

Asserts that recent deferred action policies could incentivize more illegal immigration.
