obama_wh_naturalizationWASHINGTON - In an address to the nation Thursday night, President Obama lays out the executive action he's taking to fix our nation's broken immigration system.

America’s immigration system is broken. The President is taking executive action to fix what he can to help build a system that lives up to our heritage as a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants.

The President’s plan builds a smart, effective immigration system that continues efforts to secure our borders and cracks down on employers who hire undocumented immigrants. It’s a plan that requires anyone who’s undocumented to get right with the law by paying their taxes and a penalty, learning English, and undergoing background checks before they can be eligible to earn citizenship. It requires every business and every worker to play by the same set of rules.

"Together we can build a fair, effective and common sense immigration system that lives up to our heritage as a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants."
