The Obama administration's amnesty for 1 million young illegal immigrants in 2012
08/04/2012
An effort by the Obama administration to energize its Hispanic base ahead of the presidential elections in 2012 includes granting amnesty to about 1 million young illegal immigrants in 2012. The move comes in August 2012, only 3 months ahead of a tight presidential race during a period of high unemployment that hurts the incumbent president. It also comes at a time of widespread disillusionment among Hispanics about the failure of the Obama administration to give priority to immigration reforms.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
