Immigrant Rights Group: Obama Delay "a Betrayal of Latino Community" 
---------------------------------------------------------------------


 
Immigrant rights advocates have denounced President Obama's decision. In
a statement, the group Presente said: "This delay is a betrayal of the
Latino community, and is certainly one of the single biggest attacks on
Latino families by the Democratic Party in recent memory. With news of
recently deported children dying in Honduras and record level
deportations and separations of families continuing, all eyes are on the
President's actions that totally devalue Latino life."
