But the plans break serious new ground on the legal front, giving federal agents more leeway to deny illegal immigrants at the border, to arrest and hold them when theyre spotted in the interior, and to deport them more speedily. The goal, the White House said, is to ensure major changes to border security, interior enforcement and the legal immigration system. Anything that is done addressing the status of DACA recipients needs to include these three reforms and solve these three problems, a senior White House official told The Times. If you dont solve these problems then youre not going to have a secure border, youre not going to have a lawful immigration system and youre not going to be able to protect American workers. All told, the list includes 27 different suggestions on border security, 39 improvements to interior enforcement and four major changes to the legal immigration system.
