It is what he can get away with. He demanded that Congress pass the Gang of Eight amnesty bill. and Congress said: Nuts. we are not doing that. We are not going to see the demographics of America forever altered by bringing in millions of undocumented Democrats in order to play into the hands of Barack Obama and the Democrats in the Senate and the House. We have a responsibility to the American people. We the people need to decide. That is why our Founding Fathers wrote in the enumerated powers in the Constitution the responsibility of Congress to establish the naturalization laws and. by inference. to write the immigration laws. That immigration policy is not to be set by the President of the United States. It is to be set by Congress. Congress wrote the law in 1996. the Immigration Reform Act. which LAMAR SMITH of Texas was so instrumental in. as a large body of the immigration law that we have to follow. That was the considered will of the people. It was the bipartisan. considered will of the people. signed by the President of the United States.
