Speaker. I support this resolution authorizing the Speaker to submit an amicus brief to the Supreme Court in support of the Texasled lawsuit challenging the Presidents amnesty policies. It is critical that the House of Representatives defend the Constitution. which specifically gives Congress. not the President. the power to enact immigration laws. Regrettably. the Presidents policies have ignored laws. undermined laws. and changed immigration laws. The Presidents policies have led to a surge of tens of thousands of illegal immigrants across our borders. allowed unlawful immigrants to compete with unemployed Americans for scarce jobs. and established sanctuary cities that release dangerous criminal immigrants into our neighborhoods where many go on to commit other crimes. The House of Representatives must reinforce the rule of law and protect the lives and livelihoods of the American people. Mr.
