Facing an expected onslaught of opposition, the administration plans toargue that Congress failed to provide enough resources to fully enforce U.S.laws, thereby ceding wide latitude to White House to prioritize deportationsof the 11.5 million people who are in the country illegally, administrationofficials and legal experts said.
