These executive actions will strengthen our communities. keep families together. and grow our economy. This resolution is not about limiting executive authority. It is about attempting to reverse immigration policy set by the executive branch. I understand why my friends on the other side of the aisle dont want to admit that. or they want to frame it in the context of a Constitutional question. but it is really about changing policies that are keeping families together. that are making sure that we properly allocate resources to the most serious individuals who should be deported. those who have committed crimes. and keep families together while we work to fix our broken immigration system. This is about a fundamental change in immigration policy that will rip families apart. that will undermine our values as a country. We ought to call it what it is. I urge my colleagues to vote against the rule and vote against this resolution.
