story we told you about in the last half hour. the obama administration in a major change in policy is going to stop deporting younger, illegal immigrants who came to the u.s. as children. we're expecting to hear more from the president about this in just a couple hours. he is scheduled to speak at 1:15 eastern time. but for now let's go to nbc's mike viqueira from the white house. what can you tell butts this, mike? >> just a fascinating power play by the white house and department of homeland security here. heavy on policy but of course political overtones affecting a key voting bloc, in a lot of swing states around the country just five months before the election, very interesting. you remember the dream act backed by the administration, stalled in congress. what the white house is essentially doing is unilaterally through executive order enacting portions of the dream act. they'll say they're not bypassing congress but the interesting thing is because this is such a key constituency they're going to be -- republicans are going to be stuck arguing on process
