On June 15, 2012 President Obama passed a law allowing eligible immigrants to apply for temporary lawful status and work authorization. This law goes into effect today, Wednesday August 15, 2012. The Immigration Policy Center estimates that this new relief will benefit 7,530 immigrants in South Carolina.
