A decrease in *growth* is not the same thing as a decrease in actual deportations. A little bit of your own spin in there.

I agree but it show's things trending the other way. Clearly not what Zimmy was trying to elude to.
There is a citizenship requirement to serve in the armed forces.
On November 25, 2008, US Secretary of Defense Robert Gates signed a memorandum authorizing the Secretaries of the Army, Navy, and Air Force to implement a new non-citizen recruiting pilot program for the United States Armed Forces. Titled “Military Accessions Vital to the National Interest” (MAVNI), this pilot program allowed certain non-citizens who are legally present in the United States to join the military and apply immediately for US citizenship without first obtaining lawful permanent residence. But they then apply for citizenship.
