Obama has said the emphasis should be on aliens who have committed criminal acts and not on Aliens who have US citizen children and spouses who have lived in the USA for over 5 years.
That emphasis might be oversimplified. Is someone who manages to stay under the radar for years necessarily a better citizen than someone who gets caught with a joint as soon as they get here?
cloudboy, I don't know to which "benefits" you refer, but a quick internet search finds me this:
"The programs available to illegal aliens are Head Start, Special Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC), the school lunch program, emergency medical treatment and labor and delivery services under Medicaid and AFDC for their citizen children." (that was from an eHow site and those seem like "benefits" of a sort to me)
However, if you are talking more traditional benefits, you might want to look here: http://www.fairus.org/DocServer/GR/Executive_Amnesty_Federal_Benefits_11-17-2014.pdf
here is the conclusion of that piece:
"Through a maze of statutes and regulations, aliens granted deferred action or parole in place will be eligible for many public benefits. This is true even though they are still illegal aliens. To summarize:
Aliens with parole for less than a year are eligible for Obamacare, Social Security, EITC, Unemployment, and Medicare (with sufficient authorized work history). Paroled aliens, whether for less than a year or greater, who are children and pregnant women are also eligible for health care benefits through Medicaid and SCHIP in states that have opted to cover them.
Aliens with parole for more than a year retain their eligibility for Obamacare, Social Security, EITC, Unemployment, and Medicare. If they are children or pregnant women, they are also eligible for health care benefits through Medicaid and SCHIP in states that have opted to cover them. Finally, because paroled aliens become qualified aliens after a year, paroled aliens become eligible for all federal public benefits after 6 years, including SCHIP and TANF.
Finally, aliens with deferred action are eligible for Obamacare, Social Security, EITC, Unemployment, Medicare (with sufficient authorized work history). If they are children and pregnant women, they are also eligible for health care benefits through Medicaid and SCHIP in states that have opted to cover them."
