Yet at the behest of our friends on the Democratic side of the aisle. he announced this weekend he is delaying the decision until after the election. because apparently Senate Democrats up for election have noticed their constituents dont support the President in illegally and unilaterally granting amnesty. I would suggest that Members of this body cannot have it both ways. My friend from Illinois stated he doesnt think we should be granting amnesty to these children. and yet the legislation I introduced. the legislation the House of Representatives passed. does not act retroactively. does not address anyone who has fallen within the previous DACA. It simply says going forward the President doesnt have the authority to grant amnesty. Instead it is Congress that has the authority to pass or not pass immigration.
