Congress Must Halt Unconstitutional Amnesty for Illegal Aliens

Rep. John R. Carter, R-Texas (31st CD), issued the following news release:

It is now imperative that members of Congress from both parties must fully unite in September to block the unconstitutional illegal alien amnesty program now underway by federal immigration courts under orders from the Obama Administration.

"The President is now in direct violation of U.S. immigration law and the Constitution through this order to bypass the Congress and issue what amounts to a royal amnesty decree for an initial 17,000 lawbreakers," says Carter.

"Obama's actions have made a mockery of the sacrifices of our Border Patrol and local law enforcement officers in taking these violators into custody only to have them turned loose and granted amnesty by an out-of-control Administration."

According to the Houston Chronicle, the Administration has ordered the cases of illegal aliens without felony convictions to be dismissed and the offenders released inside the United States.

Carter says that constitutes a change in immigration enforcement policy that must first be fully approved by Congress to be legal.

Congress repeatedly rejected similar amnesty proposals.

In less than two years, the Obama Administration has established a pattern of practice of overstepping Executive Branch constitutional authority and must be stopped immediately.

The Administration's unilateral oil drilling ban in the Gulf of Mexico was overturned in federal court earlier this summer, and the President's executive order on stem cell research policy was overruled in federal court last week as a violation of federal law.

"My constituents this recess have told me loud and clear that they want the U.S. Constitution honored and upheld, and this illegal amnesty plan is precisely the kind of blatant unconstitutional action they want immediately stopped," says Carter, a former Texas judge.

"The President has a constitutional mandate to enforce the law, not to undermine it."

Finally a Congressman who knows the law speaks out. I feel more hopeful now Congress will address this in Sept. unless the Dems want to once again fall on their swords.

This is what I have been saying

Where in the hell is congress?

recess or not , This moron of a president is doing what he wants

NOWHERE in our immigration laws does it give him the right to
pick and choose

Impeachment anyone?

we need to look at the list of those endorsed, and on monday make calls to as many of them as possible and tell them about this and that when they return to DC in a weeks time, this needs to be priority ONE

It usually takes about 3 days for something like this to make some of the news , I doubt any but Fox would mention it , but anyway , vetting takes about 3 days so look for it about Tue or Wed ,

We will endorse Rep. John R. Carter in the morning and put the full strength of ALIPAC behind him and his effort.

Thank God a member of Congress stood up and said this.
