I urge colleagues to understand what we are considering here. He said: I believe the President has exceeded his brief. The president is required to faithfully execute the laws. Hes not required to enforce all laws equally or commit the same resources through them. But I believe the President has crossed the constitutional line in some of these areas. Here he is referring to the original DACA. He said: This goes to the very heart of what is the Madisorian system. If a president can unilaterally change the meaning of laws in substantial ways or refuse to enforce them. it takes offline that very thing that stabilizes our system.
