mr. president. in 2010 you called the results of the midterm election a that la shelacking. what do you call this? does the election affect your plans to release the report? will it -- is it likely to come out before the lame duck session is over and have you reduced the scope to a couple million people? >> well, as i said in my opening statement, there's no doubt that republicans had a good night. and what we're going to make sure that we do is to reach out to mitch mcconnell and john boehner who are now running both chambers in congress and find out what their agenda is. and my hope is that they've got some specific things they want to do that correspond with some things we want to get done. what's most important to the american people right now, the resounding message, not just of this election but basically the last several is get stuff done. don't worry about the next election. don't worry about party affiliation. do worry about our concerns. worry about the fact that i'm a single mom and at the end of the month it's hard to pay the bills in part because i've got these huge child care costs.

las vegas for this part of the story. >> his third trip here to the high school. the president told the crowd the country waited too long to fix the broken immigration system. mr.ma signed the presidential memorandum, the new rules tighten border security. they help skilled workers and it allows undocumented parents with children who are citizens or legal residents to temporarily stay in this country without fear of deportation. the president said republican presidents have done this before including reagan and bush '41. mr. obama said the time to act was now. >> we've known about this for years and we haven't done much about it. today we are doing something about it. >> to qualify, undocumented immigrants must prove they've been in this country at least five years and pass a criminal background check. the president said he would deport all undocumented immigrants who are felons. sunday he will fly back to washington, d.c. >>> as you might imagine, it's a mixed response. republicans specifically house speaker john boehner believes president obama is damaging the presidency itself and sabotaging any chance of a bipartisan support. >> i warned the president over

mr. chenoweth has also visually recreate what had latrobe's first house would have been like had the architect not ak wcquied to jefferson's desire for sky lights. it would have been lit by a coupe la flooding the chamber with a large mass of central light. jefferson and latrobe were at odds about the choice of the ancient architectural order for the house chamber. members of congress were elected directly by the people, and thus in jefferson's view its chamber was the capitol's most important room deserving of the stateliest of the classical orders. jefferson preferred the kcorin h corinthi corinthian. perhaps his choice was not just their beauty but the fact that the brothers castor and poll lox were the sons of zeus, helen of troy their sister. because it was part of rome's foundation rit, jefferson may well have considered their temple's order an appropriate link to america's founding era which was so steeped in the ideals of roman republicanism. at first latrobe favored roman doric columns for the house chamber, but his next choice was the order of the winds -- order of the tower of the winds located in the roman forum on the athenian acropolis. by october 1804 he abandoned th

las vegas on friday. one of the fun questions was are you going to be there, mr. secretary. >> no. >> haven't checked your schedule yet. could be a fun week for all of us. a couple more then we'll let you go. this is from a good friend from fox who has been writing with great thoughtfulness about these issues in months. >> where is the fox reporter? >> this is fox. lucas is here. where are you? >> go ahead. >> lucas, i don't know if you submitted anything. so she asked an interesting question getting back to morton, the memos is that currently we've deprioritized the deportation of people without criminal records and there's been a significant change in the way that we manage the interior deportation system. in 2013 there were only 10,000 noncriminal and nonlawful entrants who were deported out of the u.s. this is not something that's well understood. let's say the executive action covers, you know, half or so of the undocumented population. what happens in terms of deportation priorities with the rest? >> well, reality is we have a finite level of resources to en

las vegas. the president challenging congress to pass their own immigration bill. we are joined now by the white house press secretary. mr. earnest, thank you so much for being on aljazeera america. >> good morning, thank you for having me he he. >> why was it so urgent the president take unilateral action now instead of giving the benefit of the doubt to this newly elected congress to pass permanent reform? >> that's a good question. you know, the senate acted in bipartisan action 500 days ago now. they passed a common sense comprehensive immigration support proposal. they got the support of 14 republican senators, there was strong bipartisan support that passed the senate. for more than a year and a half, house republicans ever refused to allow that piece of legislation to come up for a vote. they've been blocking that for a long time. they have not indicated they are willing to bring it up before the end of the year. we have a new congress coming in. two days after the election, john boehner was asked a question about whether or not he would consider bringing up immigration reform legislation in the new congress. he w

mr. obama's order allows american forces to carry out missions against the taliban and other militant groups threatening american troops or the afghan government. kristen welker is traveling with the president in las vegas. kristen, what do we know about in terms of what led to this decision that we're just hearing about? >> reporter: well, according to "the new york times" which did break this story, this decision was a result in part of the fact that you have islamic militants getting stronger in iraq and because there's a new president in afghanistan who not only welcomed this move but also asked for it. a senior administration official confirming for our pentagon team that u.s. troops could be engaged in offensive operations into this coming year. that's of course after combat operations were supposed to end. just to recap that time line, the u.s. military was supposed to take a big step back at the start of the new year, only training, advising and assisting afghan forces. but the move suggests that u.s. forces will remain in an offensive forces, possibly engage in combat after that date. according to one official, their operations could include missions like targeting the taliban and haqqani

mr. speaker, as the president intends to announce tomorrow and party in las vegas going into more detail about how many americans are going to be displaced from their jobs by people the president is going to provide amnesty to, somebody needs to be speaking up for that union member that would love to pay union dues if he just had a job, or for the single moms that have approached me in tears saying they got forced into part-time work because of obamacare and the change in the law that was entailed in the there are people hurting across america that are american citizens that once had a dream. maybe we should label the president's unconstitutional actions as the american citizen any typeler instead of of dreamer act. we've seen statistics that indicate that possibly less than 10% of people who have come into this country illegally are actually working. provides sident amnesty for millions of people who are illegally here. i hope that he will also provide an apology to the hispanics, people from different places around the world that my office visas,ng to help achieve achieve citizenship l

mr. president, where i really felt it in my heart, bill richardson, i served with in the house -- he was secretary of energy, ambassador to the united nations -- he came to las vegas and he said, let's go out to rafael rivera center. and it was at the time a new place named after the first non-indian to see the las vegas valley, rafael rah vair ravment i've got a paint -- rivera. i've got a painting in my office that depicts that. and we went to that center, and i can remember so clearly these mostly women crying from the fact that their husbands were being -- they'd lost their jobs, they were being deported and they had little american boys and girls there with them, boys and girls who had been born in the united states. i thought, gee, that's just terrible. i mean, the suffering, the sadness. i've never forgotten that and that's one of the main reasons i've worked so hard on immigration reform. in light of the president's action and our action and our advocacy for this issue, it seems to me what the president said at the state of the union address is really applicable here. and here's what he said. if the republicans continue to do nothing, i'm going to be
