Immigrants Can Now Get Mexican Birth Certificates In U.S.





Starting Thursday, Mexico's 50 consulates in the U.S. will be able to issue birth certificates to Mexican citizens. The move makes it easier for Mexican immigrants to obtain driver's licenses, passports, work permits and protection from deportation under President Obama's upcoming executive action. Angelica Salas, executive director of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, said it helps individuals really begin to formulate their formal identity in this country,. About half of the approximately 11 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S. are from Mexico, and experts believe about 3 million could be eligible for executive action under Obama's plan. http://nbcnews.to/1x6q4HT http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ
