I would also like to point out that the House Committee on Rules held an original jurisdiction hearing and markup yesterday in which we received testimony and consideration of an amendment from the minority. Mr. Speaker. over 25 States or State officials have filed suit challenging the Obama administrations expansion of DACA and the creation of DACAlike programs for aliens who are parents of U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents. On February 16. 2015. the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas entered and the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit affirmed a preliminary injunction prohibiting further implementation of these programs on the ground that States are likely to prevail in their argument for the programs that have run afoul of the law.
