So any reform or change to the law must come from congressional legislation. not executive fiat. and basically makes clear an executive fix of the law is unconstitutional. temporary. and establishes a dangerous precedent that could be abused by Presidents of both parties for any area of the law they disagree with. So that is a great first step. but the problem is. if we do not eliminate the funding for the Presidents unconstitutional action. then it may be carried out anyway. There is some talk about extending funding to next March. Well. by March people will already have been provided work permits that the law says may not legally have work permits. and it is not likely anything would be done at that point to stop it. Now is the time to stop unconstitutional action. As the President keeps saying.
