Mr. Speaker. last year. I promised my constituents that. in the new year. we would bring the fight on illegal immigration and act to restore the separation of powers that was upended by President Obamas lawless overreach. and I meant it. That is why I proudly voted for the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act and the attached amendments. This bill is simple. It fully fundsyes. it fully fundsthe DHS while ensuring that no dollars are made available for the Presidents executive amnesty. I am especially pleased that this measure contained key provisions of my bill. the Immigration Compliance Enforcement Act. which will defund the Obama administrations "public advocate" to lobby on behalf of illegal immigrants. Mr. Speaker. we still have three coequal branches of government. and when the President oversteps his bounds. we are compelled to respond.
