CNN news:奥巴马新政策为移民谋福利

First up today, we are talking about a new program for some immigrants living in the United States. It started earlier this year, when President Obama signed an executive order. That's a law that a president creates without getting it approved by Congress.

今天首先我们要谈论对于生活在美国的一些移民们的新项目。它在今年早些时候奥巴马总统签署了一项行政命令后开始。这是一项一位总统没有得到国会批准创建的法律。

This one set up a program called "The Consideration of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals." It lets some illegal immigrants fill out an application to avoid being deported, being sent back to their home country. Applicants have to be younger than 30, and they have to have arrived in the U.S. before they were 16. They can't pose a criminal or security threat, and they have to have been a successful student or have served in the military. If the application is approved, the deportation deferral lasts two years. And during that time, the immigrant can apply for U.S. work permit. This is a big change in immigration policy. And a lot of people wanted to take advantage of it. Huge lines formed at help centers and lawyers offices for people to fill out application forms.

这一设置的项目叫做“儿童移民延期法案的思考”。它允许一些非法移民填写一张申请表以避免被驱逐出境并送回他们的祖国。申请人必须在30岁以下,必须在16岁前到达美国。不会构成犯罪或安全威胁,而且是成功的学生或在军队服役过。如果申请被批准后,延迟驱逐出境将持续两年有效。在这段时间里,移民们可以申请美国工作许可证。这是移民政策巨大的变化。很多人想利用它。人们在帮助中心和律师办公室外排起长龙填写申请表格。

One thing this program doesn't do is guarantee public benefits like drivers licenses for successful applicants. That let Arizona Governor Jan Brewer issue her own executive order this week. It told government agencies in her state to deny those public benefits to immigrants who get the deferrals.Governor Brewer, who is opposed to the president's policy, says those benefits would have a significant negative impact on Arizona's budget and healthcare system. Governor Brewer isn't the only critic. Some Republican leaders have called the program unlawful, and they've said President Obama created it through an executive order to avoid any opposition to it in Congress. Something else to keep in mind here, executive orders can be cancelled by a future president, so you can probably expect this to be a big issue leading up to this year's presidential election.

这个项目不做的一件事是保证比如成功的申请人的驾驶执照等公共利益。这让亚利桑那州州长让·布雷尔本周发布她自己的行政命令。它告诉政府机构在她的州拒绝那些公共利益得到延期的移民。州长布雷尔反对总统的政策,她表示这些益处会对亚利桑那州的预算和医疗系统造成重大的负面影响。州长布雷尔并不是唯一的持反对意见者。一些共和党领导人称这个项目非法,他们表示奥巴马总统通过一项行政命令创建它,以避免任何国会出现反对意见。在这里还有其他需要记住的事情,行政命令可以被未来的总统取消,所以你可以想象这是引发今年的总统选举的一个大问题。

Military officials are investigating a helicopter crash that happened in southern Afghanistan on Sunday. Eleven people were killed in the crash, including seven American service members. The helicopter was a UH-60 Blackhawk, like the one you see right here, was on patrol when it went down.Earlier this week, U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said it was important to remind Americans about the war in Afghanistan. He said, "I just want the American people to take the time and reflect on this sacrifices."

军方官员正在调查周日发生在阿富汗南部的一起直升机坠毁事故。11人在事故中丧生,其中包括7名美国成员。直升机是uh - 60黑鹰号,就像你在这里看到的一样,当它在巡逻时候发生事故。本周早些时候,美国国防部长帕内塔表示重要的是提醒美国人回忆起阿富汗战争。他说道:“我只是想要美国人花时间并反思这种牺牲。”
