That is the kind of logic we are dealing with. These unlawful actions fly in the face of what the American people have asked for. Yet. despite having the Obama Administration having the most radical immigration policies in our Nations history. former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has promised to go even further. I am astounded at some of the things she has declared. She promises to deport only those who commit violent felonies or happen to be terrorists. Anybody else can come in. get in illegally. sell drugs. get caught for fraud. get caught for fraudulent ID. credit card fraud. and all those kinds of things. but as long as they are not committing a violent crime. they never get sent home. They get to stay here. How is this in harmony with the will of the American people to have a lawful system of immigration. one that protects their public safety. protects them from criminal activity. protects them from terrorism and those kind of things? It is breathtaking to me. Moreover. if Secretary Clinton is provided with the ability as President to appoint a new Justice to the Supreme Court. the outcome of this case might change. Who knows? But it certainly is clear that she has been vigorously critical of the decision and says it is correct. essentially. She said this in her statement today: "Todays decision by the Supreme Court is purely procedural. casts no doubt on the fact that DAPA and DACA." these amnesty programs. "are entirely within the Presidents legal authority." She says this is entirely within the Presidents authority. Well. again. let me remind you what the President did. On the issue before the Supreme Court. he not only said to 4 million adults that they will not be deported. he declared that they are able to work. He has given them work authorization when the laws of the United States dont allow people illegally here to take jobs. Not only that. he gave them the right to Social Security.
