Late Monday night brought news that a federal judge in Texas has blocked President Obama's executive action providing legal status to illegal immigrants. I applaud the judge's decision delaying what I see, and the President himself has acknowledged, to be a gross overstepping of his authority. While this court order is likely to be appealed, I am hopeful that other judges will agree and uphold this initial ruling.
In the meantime, it is imperative the United States Senate take up, debate, and pass the House-passed Department of Homeland Security funding measure that permanently blocks the President's illegal actions. By clicking the image below, you can view a complete list of each of the 22 times President Obama admitted his executive action on immigration was beyond the powers possessed by his office.
