US President Barack Obama will announce an executive order on immigration reform Thursday, according to the White House.

In a statement on Wednesday, the White House said Obama will give a prime-time address at 8 p.m. on Thursday to discuss his plan for immigration reform, likely to include temporary reprieve from deportation for as much as 5 million undocumented immigrants.

Pres. Obama was first reported on Wednesday to be giving an immigration announcement on Friday, but later the White House said the address would be given on Thursday evening.

Last Wednesday, following the Republican Party's takeover of the US Senate, Obama warned that he would take whatever lawful actions he feels are necessary to "improve the function of our immigration system," following years of unsuccessful efforts from Congress to accomplish as much on its own.

Can someone inform me on what good comes from postponing the deportation of 5 million people who don't pay taxes?

We send American citizens to prison for multiple years for tax evasion.

Re: "They do pay taxes!"

There is said to be 12 million illegal immigrants in the US.
The IRS reported that 6 million have filed for income tax.

That's 6 million less than what there should be.
