Caribbean-American U.S. Rep. Yvette D. Clarke has called on President Barack Obama to stop the deportation of  immigrants from the Caribbean and other countries, who lack legal status in the United States.

Clarke, the daughter of Jamaican immigrants, who represents the largely Caribbean 9th Congressional District in Brooklyn, said her appeal would help to “prevent the continued dislocation of families and children.”
