mr. leopold, thank you for being with us. president obama described these border crossings by unaccompanied children as an urgent humanitarian situation. what is going to happen to most of these kids? >> the president is right, and i applaud the president for working the agencies, the department of homeland security, health and human services department and department of defense to make sure that these vulnerable children and they are the most vulnerable of any immigrants that come to this country, to make sure they get the proper care they need. >> i understand that they are assigned attorneys. what does that mean for the next step in this process for them? >> that is unprecedented that they would be assigned attorneys. the system, remember the immigration system does not provide free counsel to people in the system. i think that they're providing the funds for attorneys is extremely important, because the

immigration system is con value looted, and very difficult to navigate. what it means is that these children are not permanently in the united states. what it means is that even though they're here, the law does permit they're deportation, and what's going to happen now is that they are going to go into what we call removal proceedings before immigration judges. that's why they've assigned them counsel. it's a good move. >> homeland security secretary jay johnson said just last week: he was referring to a 2012 obama rule that allowed some immigrants to defer deportation. that rule doesn't apply after june 15, 2007, is my understanding, but does johnsons

assertion about these children's legal rights apply to these new, treasure cases, these tens of thousands and a half children coming into this country without adults? >> of course it does. these kids are coming as a result of a variety of different things going on in their countries. we've got violence down there, gangs, many of them are fleeing the violence of gangs and drugs. many are fleeing extreme poverty and many are trying to reunite with family in the united states. we've got a humanitarian crisis, the surge of tens of thousands. i think it went from 25,000 a year ago to almost 60,000 by the end of this fiscal year. the spirit of this country is to help the most vulnerable. i think that's what the secretary johnson of the department of homeland security is referring to. really, what this underscores is that we have a very badly broken

immigration system, and it needs to be fixed. it's frustrating that the house of representatives, speaker boehner, eric cantor, the majority leader do nothing, do nothing in the face of these crises. >> the numbers are even more stark. in 2011, there were 6,550 unaccompanied children. in 2014, it's estimated by the border patrol that about 90,000 unaccompanied children could try to cross into the u.s. from texas. is it possible, like some republicans contend, that this wave of unaccompanied minors across the border is a result of obama's immigration policies? >> i don't think so. first, the border, and i think this goes across partisan lines, at least the ones who are honest, the borders most secure it's been since the 1970's.

we have a tremendous amount of border patrol down there. it's secure. i think what's going on is you've got a function of young people who are being sent up here, who have come up here and also don't discount the fact that many of these kids are trafficked, trafficked up here by human traffickers, so that's the result of criminal activity. the obama administration has touched the border. i think one of the things, though, is that people do hear rumors and one of the rumors that they hear is that if you get into the united states as a child one get to stay, which of course isn't true. it isn't true. in fact, mexicans and canadians can be deported on the spotted, children, but coming from central america or a country that's not attached to the united states, in many cases says or in all cases says, there are requirements that they be put into the custody of the department of health and human

services. >> you're saying that those rumors maybe spreading in central america and therefore there may be families sending their children up here. we'll to have leave it there. david leopold, thank you. >> ahead in the next hour, the long journey to a better life. aljazeera follows three young men as they try to make their way from central america to the u.s. that's coming up at 8:40 right here on aljazeera america. >> people in palo alto, california say it's a great place to live and raise a family, located in the heart of the high as he can industry. for some, it's becoming too expensive to live there. these families aren't leaving without a fight. >> palo alto, california, the heart of silicon valley, where tech millionaires live and home to stanford university. in the middle of it all, sits

we're dealing with a very slow moving area of low pressure. wave lot of moisture lifting out of the gulf of mexico helping to fuel storms, giving way to the heavy rain that we are still dealing with across texas. as we look at those storms, they roll right across the northern areas of texas. that is good news. we desperately need the rainfall there. much of north texas under extreme to exceptional drought. this will be updated again thursday, so a lot of this red shading should diminish as we expect three to five inches of localized rainfall. it's bringing that threat of flash flooding, so that's another concern to watch out for. >> flash flooding in afghanistan left 81 people dead. flooding in the mountain province destroyed 150 homes and damaged more since friday. we have more from northern having a. >> the only way to get to the

from being able to buy a home, start a business, or spent money to move the economy forward. the president's action will extend a 2010 law that eases student borers debt by caps payment to 10% of their income. that will release 5 million more americans currently ineligible because under this law, they have older loans. senate democrats are about a unveil a plan of their own. they would allow 25 million americans to refinance student loans at lowerrer interest rates. the plan would cost the government 60 blunt over 10 years, but off sets that cost with a new tax on high income individuals. president obama is urging congress to move forward with this legislation. >> that's the choice that your representatives in congress will make in the coming weeks, protect young people from crushing dealt or protect tax breaks for millionaires. while congress decides what it's

going to do, i will keep doing whatever i can without congress to help responsible young people pay off their loans, including new action, i will take this week. >> that action the pot's taking with his executive order does not sick in until december, 2015. senate democrats will introduce legislation, but it is not expected to gain much traction since most republicans are against raising taxes on the wealthy. >> a senior policy analyst focusing on economic and voting rights issues joins us from washington, d.c. this morning. outstanding student loan debt stands at $1.2 trillion. is the president's initiative a solution for bandaid for a larger problem? >> the president's initiative is really a reflection that student loan debt has become a full blown crisis for a lot of families in this country, well

over a trillion dollars now. only 10 years ago, student loan debt stood at 250 billions. really, kind of overnight, we've gone from it being kind of a problem to a really big problem. what the president's doing is extending income based repayment, which has been around for a while to more borers, older borers, those who took out a loan a while ago. student loan debt isn't merely an issue for recent graduates. a third of student loan debt is taken on by or exists among those who are above 40 years old. it's an issue that i don't think a lot of people realize touches households that are obviously just out of college, but are well beyond having gotten a college education or gone to college. i think that one of the big -- one of the president's, you know, points here is to make

sure that student loan get doesn't cripple you financially. it's something we know can prevent you from buying a home. our researchers have found that over a lifetime, a college educated home will lose $250,000 in retirement savings. the president is broadening this to all students who of borrowed over many years. >> the cost of paying a college degree is one of the big reasons that the student loan problem is such a huge problem to begin with. 1978-2012, college tuition and fees increased 1120%. for comparison, medical costs have increased 601%, how thing costs up over 300% and food up 244%. why can't the government step in and bring college costs down or slow their rise down. >> that's a great point and exactly right. college costs have outpaced every form of inflation.

student loan debt was the only form of debt to kind of rise in the aftermath of the recession. college costs have been increasing for a long time. the president can only do so much through executive orders. he's the one who can help or direct the department of education to help struggling borers. congress can innocentivize colleges to bring the costs down. 25 years ago, what it cost to educate you as a student and a college, tuition

made up 25% of that. now it makes up almost half. we've seen tuition make up much greater parts of state budget it is orr college and university says funding sources for college, and it's a real problem. >> we're going to to have cut it off there. thanks for joining us this morning. >> most realtors say the u.s. housing market is on the mend, but at least one younger group of americans might disagree. we report on why many millennials are falling short of the american dream. >> hand-in-hand, marcus brookings and his wife enjoy strolls in the neighborhood. this four bedroom residence in bedford, texas is their dream home. this one bedroom apartment across the street is their reality. >> if we can afford to move, i would. >> unfortunately, marcus doesn't see how he and his family can

ever move past apartment living. student loans, not so stellar credit and tight lending factors he says are keeping him from achieving the american dream. >> we have to reevaluate how we are going to pay for the house and student loan debt and make sure that we are ok as a family so we can bring kids into the world, because kids cost a lot of money. >> 90% of millennials wish to own a home, but 36% of americans under the age of 35 actually do. that's down from 42% in 2007, and the lowest level since 1982 when the agency began tracking homeownership by age. of note, the homeownership rate for this group was as high at 43% in 2004. real estate expert mark bloom is aware of the challenges that millennials face.

>> you have student debt issues, also the fact that banks are a lot more -- a lot less liberal with giving out loans and what they're looking for in terms of credit. what that borer has to have is usually more than what that millennial can clear. >> according to bloom, millennials inability to purchase homes could create a significant shift that could over time hurt the recovery of the real estate market, and at the very least, slow the appreciation of homes that are on the market. >> it could stall the market. it can have consequences. >> according to bloom. >> you want to pay down your debt, manage your credit, pay all your things on time. >> marcus is definitely all ears. he and his wife like to entertain guests, but.

unconstitutional. we haven't heard from him yet. in a positive development as a respect for the rule of law here, the body that did elect him has come out to say they will accept the rule of law and they think this is the best decision to move forward at such a critical phase for libya. technically, the outgoing prime minister is in charge. we know that the g.n.c. will convene tomorrow on tuesday to figure out how to move forward. they have the option of voting him out and voting in someone else. again, that needs 120 votes each. to put it into context, elections are scheduled for june 25. they are very close. the people will be voting for a new parliament, a totally new body. that parliament will be voting for a new prime minister. it's close to having a new government, so why don't you just keep the stat cuss quo, focus on the elections, the

country faces lawlessness. people will want to disrupt the reelections, so that should be the main focus for the people to vote, feel they voted in a legitimate body and move forward from this crisis that is the worst since the revolution. >> right now, hundreds of undocumented children are sleeping on plastic boards under foil blankets in arizona. most of them were picked up crossing the mexican border into texas, then flown to arizona because texas is already overflowing with children trying to enter the country illegally. it appears to be part of a new pattern. more than 47,000 unaccompanied children were arrested at the border between october and may, up 92% from the same period a year ago. arizona governor jan brewer called the situation dire, saying mattresses and medical supplies were on their way. >> these facilities are filling
