The American people should never stand for rule by Executive fiat. and they should demand the rule of law be enforced under our Constitution. The Presidents frustration with the Republican House of Representatives is no justification for doing what he has done. He needs to give us an opportunity to do our job. and he needs to join us at the negotiating table to make progress on our broken immigration system. Although I admire Ms. Saldana. I fear she will be tasked with carrying out the implementation of the Presidents unconstitutional Executive actions. refusing to enforce our immigration laws. Unfortunately. when given the chance to address the constitutionality of these actions with the Judiciary Committee. these fears were not alleviated. Members of the committee were denied a chance to ask her questions during an open confirmation hearing. something several previous nominees for this position have undergone.
