SEN. JEFF SESSIONS SLAMS OBAMA ADMIN’S ’LAWLESS’ WORK PERMIT ‘PRINTING PRESS’

The Obama administration’s issuance of millions of work permits to illegal aliens beyond the congressionally mandated admissions limits amounts to a “lawless printing press,” according to
Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL).

“The record admission of new immigrant workers is reducing wages and job opportunities for our own struggling workers. The Administration’s lawless printing press supplements that already huge annual inflow by work-authorizing many millions more,” Sessions, the chairman of the Immigration and the National Interest Subcommittee, said in a statement Wednesday.

The Alabama lawmaker was reacting to confirmation from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services that the administration has issued more then 7.4 million work permits to foreign nationals from FY 2009 – FY 2014 beyond the approximately one million lawful permanent residents and 700,000 foreign guest workers admitted to the U.S. each year.
