4:03 am
carrying out a cue. we'll have more later this hour. hundreds of firefighters coming from across the country to stop a wall of fire blazing across colorado. firefighters battling the fire are hoping for rain today. if they don't get it, they face another gruelling day on the fire lines. the fire incinerated 54,000 acres and it's still growing. thousands had to evacuate. hundreds of homes burned and at least one person died. for the first time ever, a daredevil crossed over niagara falls on a tight rope. we have the video for you. people watched him walk 1,800 feet in the dark with mist and wind blowing around him. after 25 minutes, he pumped his fist in the air and sprinted to the end. he was inspired by his great grandfather who died while
4:04 am
walking a tight rope between two buildings in 1978. he says his next goal is to walk across the grand canyon. wow. a million young immigrants here illegally are feeling more secure about their futures this morning after the obama administration unveiled changes to the policy that they say are more fair and efficient. it's for those under the age of 16 and resided here five years. they must be in school, graduated from high school or a military veteran. they cannot be convicted on a crime or older than 30. we are in washington this morning. good morning. how is this news being received on capitol hill? i bet it has mixed results there. >> reporter: good morning. democrats are thrilled with this. they are applauding it. dick durbin called it a historic humanitarian moment. republicans are furious.
4:05 am
they are questioning president obama's authority to make this move. i spoke with texas congressman about this and he told us he thought the american people were getting sick and tired as he put it of the president picking and choosing what laws to enforce. it's not the democratic way. maybe you can do it in a dictatorship. you can't do it in this country. this is a president who swore to uphold the constitution of the united states. it's a sampling of the responses we are getting from republicans. >> can they do anything, the republicans, can they do anything to block the policy? it's not law. he can make it happen. >> reporter: we asked representative smith about this. he could use the power to with hold money that might go to implementing the program. he said they could bring a resolution in congress disagreeing with the president or they could file a lawsuit and try to take president obama to court for failing to uphold the
4:06 am
law. he acknowledged ultimately, this is all going to play out in the court of public opinion. as i noted, he thinks the american people are tired of this kind of thing. >> we have been hearing a lot about this. some are arguing this short term measure will make it harder to pass a more permanent dream act or immigration legislation. we heart marco rubio say that and mitt romney. is there truth to that? >> reporter: it's an interesting point. it's unclear. it's an open question. it's going to depend on what happens in november. many people in congress and poem who watch congress acknowledge there's not a lot that was likely to happen on the dream act or any other comprehensive immigration overhaul. i should note, the democrats, some of the democrats said this is a great step forward. we still need to push for a long term permanent measure. >> thank you very much for your reporting this morning. the man who wants to replace
4:07 am
president obama weighed in on the decision that may be influenced by the white house's political hopes. listen. >> i can tell you that i think it's unfortunate this sort of thing comes up four and a half months before the election. the president has been in office three and a half years. he had both houses of congress, did nothing the first two years with them. of course this comes up with the a time when it's a temporary measure. we need something that is long term so people can understand what the future will be for them. mitt romney isn't the only one who opposes the new policy. i'll talk to one expert who says the president overstepped his bounds.
4:09 am
4:10 am
in the u.s. for five years and not having felonies on record. this move is expected to affect more than 1 million people. phil kent is joining me to talk about this. good morning to you. >> hi. >> tell me what you make of this policy change. this enormous shift. >> it is an enormous shift. i think it's the role of congress. this is an area when talking amnesty of illegal immigrants. whether you agree or not, it ought to be done by the legislative branch. >> do you think it's violating the constitution? >> yes, i think it's lawsuit time. >> oh, boy. lawsuit time. just what we need, more of those in washington, right? >> right. >> do you agree, changes need to be made? >> well, i think everyone is in favor of comprehensive immigration reform. everyone from the right, left, middle, they believe the
4:11 am
immigration system has been broken and the government has not secured the border. if we secured the border, we wouldn't be talking about the problem. let me share what senator dick durbin said, extending it to dream act students is a historic humanitarian moment. this will allow them to be part of the only country they have ever called home. what should be done with the illegal immigrants? should they be sent back to their country? >> we have to demagtize the magnets that bring them here. tighten up employer sanctions. we have to do e-verify as many states are trying to do. we have to ban illegals from colleges. make sure american workers are protected first. this order is a stab in the back to the american worker, especially at a time of high
4:12 am
unemployment. we have more people now in the work force. we have to have something done for these young people, these students, especially. we sympathize with them. we cannot do this. this actually makes the problem worse, what the president did. >> according to janet napolitano, they are not getting benefits or help they are just allowed to stay. they came here, you know, they didn't know they were doing anything wrong when they came over here in many cases. you still think they should go back? >> we need a program. i think we agree on this. if they are students and most of them are students, give them a student visa, but then go back to their country of origin and reapply with the folks who play by the rules and come to america to be permanent residents. we have given work permits and we have broken the rules here. >> you think it's going to make the immigration problem worse?
4:13 am
>> it is. you know this. you cover this all the time. there's going to be more protests that they don't have the rights. there's taxation without representation. they are going to demand citizen ship. >> if you look at the president's record, he's increased deportation. last year, customs removed 400,000 illegal immigrants. that is the largest number ever. is it fair of accusing the president of being soft on immigration? >> it is. that was then and this is now. >> none of that matters? >> it doesn't. there's a catch and release program on the border. he was doing good the first two years. now, it's open season. it's open borders. >> homeland security secretary says the shift is well in the frame work of existing laws. do you agree? >> no, i don't agree.
4:14 am
>> i knew the answer to that. >> a lot of members of congress don't agree. that's the issue. i think it's hurting president barack obama with independent voters. those that come here legally and play by the rules are most angered about this. >> they are going to out their parents by coming forward. janet napolitano says we are not going after their parents, it's not the deal. >> the undermining, the parents need to get their paperwork in order, go back to their country of origin and help their children. they have done a horrible betrayal of their children. it's terrible. >> appreciate your time and your opinion on that. thank you very much. a lot of opinions to go around on this one. >> appreciate it. make sure you stay with us. at 8:15, we'll hear a perspective from another side of
4:15 am
the issue. we'll hear from a woman who is an undocumented immigrant. a subject we hear about on the news. when a fifth grader in new york tried to give a speech about same-sex marriage, the pirincipl pulled the plug, said no way. how they compromised.

4:16 am
4:17 am
as i have indicated, michelle and i have made up our minds on this issue. >> that is the president at a gay pride event at the white house yesterday. mr. obama invited gay, bisexual and others to the white house. he told them they have a friend and fellow advocate. he pointed to the military ban on gays serving openly as a sign of progress. taking a look at stories across country. we begin in new york where a fifth grader tried to talk about same-sex marriage at an elementary school. the principal wouldn't let him do it calling it inappropriate for younger children listening.
4:18 am
cameron was disappointed. the school managed to teach a lesson in hate. a compromise, he can give the speech monday, just to the fifth graders. >> the original message was that no matter what orientation you are, you should be treated the same way as a straight person. i thought my speech, my original speech was really going to win. i was confident in it. >> you go. all right. look at this rescue video in chicago. the guy in the kayak, 17 years old, is holding a man's head out of the water. he suffered a seizure and fell into the chicago river. a police boat arrived and pulled him out. he's in the hospital in critical condition. in los angeles, look at this mayhem. a preschool graduation ceremony gets out of hand. it's caught on camera.

4:26 am
