SACRAMENTO --- Attorney General Kamala D. Harris today released the following statement:

“The President is exactly right. Our law enforcement resources are limited, and should be directed towards dealing with serious and violent criminals.  There is no rationale for spending these precious resources on college kids, military members, small business entrepreneurs, and productive members of society who were brought here by their parents.  I applaud the President's leadership on this issue, and believe it takes us one step closer to the comprehensive immigration reform our nation needs.”
