Mr. Speaker. I rise today in support of H. Res. 639. Mr. Speaker. we are a Nation of immigrants. But. more importantly. we are a Nation of laws. We are also a Nation governed by a Constitution. a Constitution designed by our Founders to protect the people from government. This same Constitution enumerates specific powers to the executive. legislative. and judicial branches. these same powers that this President has decided he does not need to uphold. As a result. we. as a united legislative body. will act this week against the Presidents executive amnesty and overreach. We must act because it is time that CongressRepublicans and Democratsstand up for the Constitution of the United States and against President Obama. who has decided to turn his back on the American people.
