Hillary offers an alternative to Obama's deportation policy by offering Obama's deportation policy.

[Miles Archer]

During Wednesday's Democratic debate, Hillary Clinton said her deportation policies would differ from President Obama's; immigrant advocates have dismissed him as "deporter-in-chief" for forcibly removing more immigrants than any other president.

Clinton said that unlike Obama, she would focus on deporting "violent criminals, terrorists" and others who want to do harm.

In fact, that is Obama's policy almost verbatim. In 2014, Obama took executive action to offer temporary protection from deportation to roughly 5 million immigrants in the country illegally with long-standing ties to the U.S. and no serious criminal records. The policy is on hold while a lawsuit accusing Obama of overstepping his power works its way through the federal court system.

When Obama originally acted, he also clarified who his administration would prioritize for deportations. Like Clinton, he said he would deport only criminals, a continuation of official Homeland Security guidelines.
