奥巴马承诺:在美非法移民 2013年就地入籍 多维
在哥伦比亚参加美洲峰会的奥巴马14日再度开出竞选支票,他承诺将在连任后第一年,
即推动全面移民改革出台移民法案。同时他不忘批评潜在对手罗穆尼在非法移民议题上
的极端立场。
综合媒体4月16日报道,奥巴马表示,他原本很希望在2012年就展开移民改革,目前国
会中民主党都对此表示支持,但因共和党的强烈反对,使得移民改革最终作罢。但他说
,他承诺会在连任后第一年尝试推动这项工作。奥巴马支持的全面移民改革法案版本,
包括加强边界安全,以及对已居住美国的非法移民提供获得公民身份的管道。
美国有很多拉丁裔选民,奥巴马之所以能在2008年中当选总统,离不开当时拉丁裔的大
力支持。此次,奥巴马借在哥伦比亚举行美洲峰会期间,表明自己的立场,以继续争取
