Speaker. in April. the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in the United States v. Texas. a case that has been repeatedly litigated by our colleagues in the halls of Congress. And this resolution is absolutely about immigration policy. Lets be clear. Numerous hearings have been held in our committee challenging the constitutionality of Deferred Actions for Parents of Americans. Our colleagues. instead of moving forward on comprehensive immigration reform and fixing our broken immigration system. have instead insisted on putting forth a resolution. a resolution that has no substantive findings. makes no legal arguments against the executive action. and exists only in the hopes of securing time before the Court during oral arguments. If our colleagues do find themselves before the Court in this case. it would be helpful if they remember the settled Constitutional law on this subject. DAPA is a lawful exercise of executive discretion well within the bounds of the Constitution.
