Defying President Obama’s lawless amnesty decree....

Two more states..Nebraska Governor Dave Heineman and Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant have now joined Arizona Gov.Jan Brewer .....ordering state agencies not to provide public benefits to immigrants receiving deferred deportation status from the federal government -- an order that reinforces current state

10 immigration agents on Thursday sued the  Obama Administration to try to overturn the president’s new non-deportation policy.

The 10 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and deportation officers said  President Obama’s policies force them to choose between enforcing the law and being reprimanded by superiors, or listening to superiors and violating their own oaths of office and a 1996 law that requires them to put those who entered the country illegally into deportation proceedings.

Obama made clear that the new policy was intended to be a temporary step until Congress passes a more comprehensive immigration law that addresses the situation of young illegal immigrants who have essentially grown up as Americans.

Roy Beck of NumbersUSA, an advocacy group for more restrictive immigration that is bankrolling the lawsuit...called such an approach misguided...and said:

"We're going to do something that's not allowed by law in order to get Congress to pass something which they have defeated repeatedly," he said. "It's just such an abuse of power."

Gov. Bryant also challenged the legitimacy of Obama’s amnesty:

“Being granted such status does not confer legal rights to a person and does not entitle that person to receive public benefits. Mississippi law prohibits issuing public benefits to a person who is not lawfully present in the state or country.”

When you bring family members into the picture it is a personal attack ....try commenting to the thread topic and don't make it personal ..

Bobetrts427;

We could, establish an amnesty process for legalizing those illegals we feel are worthy of clemency, but to do so would require Congress to enact legislation....in the past those proposals have been uniformly rejected  by Congress....

So President Obama with his "We can't wait " slogan ..test the limits of executive power. If Congress ...the people we elected to represent us.......... allows this illegitimate executive order to stand, it will delegate its power to make law to the president.......

If Congress so wished.. they could enact or amend what the President is doing ...but they don't ..they just go on summer vacation ..I can see a lot of Congressional seats being changed in Nov.. [Congress now has a  10% approval rating]...

I believe in Nov.more incumbents will be thrown out of Congress .,,than were thrown out in 2010 ...

We need a Congress, that will represent the will of the people..not one that allows the president R or D to make laws, that just support his party agenda .. 

WSC,
