Remarks by the President in Address to the Nation on Immigration

Cross Hall  8:01 P.M. EST
THE PRESIDENT: My fellow Americans, tonight, I’d like to talk with you about immigration ...

President Barack Obama is poised to act soon to unveil a series of executive actions on immigration that will shield possibly around 5 million immigrants living in the country illegally from deportation, according to advocates in touch with the White House.

As more states begin providing illegal immigrants and their children with driver's licenses and ID cards, officials are concerned some also are registering to vote -- some by mistake, and others on purpose.
