Speech #1140020897

We do not need to be apologetic about it. Ms. Lynch has announced that she supports and. if confirmed. would advance the Presidents unlawful Executive amnesty schemea scheme that would provide work permits. trillions in Social Security and Medicare benefits. tax credits of up to $35.000 a yearaccording to the Congressional Research Serviceand even the possibility of chain migration and citizenship to those who have entered our country illegally or overstayed their lawful period of admission. The President has done this even though Congress has repeatedly rejected legislation he supports that would allow this scheme to be implemented. He asked for it. Congress considered it. and Congress said no. President Obamas unlawful and unconstitutional Executive action nullifies current immigration law to a degree most people have not fully grasped. The Immigration and Nationality Act is the law of the land. and his actions replace it with the very measures Congress refused to adopt. Even King George III didnt have the power to legislate without Parliament. During her confirmation hearing in the Judiciary Committee. I asked Ms. Lynch plainly whether she supported the Presidents unilateral decision to make his own immigration laws. Here is the relevant portion of the transcript:
