Immigration Reform Discussions Continue in the Valley

HARRISONBURG, Va. (WHSV)-- It has been exactly one month since President Obama laid out his controversial executive action on immigration. The plan protects more than four million undocumented immigrants around the nation.

Some think it's been a long time waiting for reform, with the last true immigration reform action in the 90s.

Out of the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S., less than half meet the requirements which will grant them protection from deportation. It's important to note that this is a three year relief from deportation....and some say it's only a temporary solution.

"There was much rejoicing," said Father Robayo. "I mean everyone was very happy to hear this...very happy that the President took this measure."

Father Daniel Robayo has a deep bond with the Harrisonburg immigrant population, being an immigrant himself, and helping those who he says live day after day in the dark, for fear of the law.

"Well the fears which were based on reality, is that anyone could be pulled over for a stop," said Father Robayo. "We have lived essentially under ethnic profiling."

Juan asked us to hide his identity because he is an undocumented immigrant living in the Valley. The executive action take by President Obama will not change Juan's situation. He's not a parent to an American child, nor did he arrive here before the age of 16. He's hoping for stronger reforms in the future.

"Our situation doesn't let us have peace because we are constantly in fear of suddenly being caught by an immigration agent," said Juan.

But not everyone thinks this executive action is the right way to go.

"It's not going to deal with the need for electronic verification of employment system...or, and entry-exit visa system, so we know who has come into the country and who's not," said Congressman Bob Goodlatte.
