Because a President who can set aside the law. who can pick and choose which law to follow and which law to ignore. is no longer a President. That should concern all 100 Senators here. If President Obama can decide I dont agree with the immigration laws. so I will not enforce them. I will unilaterally change themI promise you there is going to come another Presidentanother President with different policy views. And the next time it may not be immigration laws that he or she is changing. it may be tax laws or environmental laws or labor laws. I fervently believe we need tax reform. labor reform. and environmental reform. but there is a proper way to do it. The proper way to do it is this body debating and making legislative changes to the laws. not one President by dicta setting aside the law.
