White House Announcement on Executive Action on Immigration Tonight

Yesterday, President Obama released a short video providing more information on a much-anticipated executive action announcement on immigration policy. While the details remain unclear on how many of the 11 million undocumented and aspiring Americans will be covered, relief is rumored to the following:    

• Temporary legal protection for undocumented parents of children who are legal U.S. citizens.
• Temporary legal protection for undocumented immigrants with a longstanding presence in the United States.
• Extension of the 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

The president will address the nation tonight at 8 p.m. ET. Watch the speech live here.
