fornia. Mr. Speaker. it has been more than 500 days since the Senate overwhelmingly passed bipartisan comprehensive immigration reform. But House Republicans have done nothing. They refused to act. If the Republicans are unwilling to use their power to act. then the President must act. In fact. recently. 117 of my colleagues and I sent a letter to President Obama urging him to act now. Since 1952. every single President. regardless of political party. has used their broad executive authority to shape our Nations immigration policy. So the Presidents decision to use executive action is not unprecedented. Neither is it ideal.
