Congress is the appropriate place to make laws about our country's immigration policy; it is not something that the president gets to decide on his own.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Dealing with immigration should originate in Congress. The president should not act unilaterally.
The president and his open border allies may hate the fact that the Constitution gets in the way of their political agenda, but it's up to Congress to take bold action and stop this lawlessness.
The Constitution of the United States... specifically states the Congress shall write legislation for immigration policy in the United States.
Immigration specifically was laid out in the Congress, giving the power of Congress to create a uniform system of naturalization.
I don't think it's the function of Congress to function well. It should drag its heels on the way to decision.
Rather than waiting for future trials to determine rules that will impact every citizen, Congress should step in and write a law that takes every American's rights into consideration.
Congress has the responsibility to ensure that any international trade agreement entered into by the United States must serve the national interest, not merely the interests of those crafting the proposal in secret.
America isn't Congress. America isn't Washington. America is the striving immigrant who starts a business, or the mom who works two low-wage jobs to give her kid a better life. America is the union leader and the CEO who put aside their differences to make the economy stronger.
Under our constitutional system, the executive executes the laws that Congress has passed. It should not be executing laws that Congress has rejected.
Don't count on Congress. Laws come into being because people on the ground demand it.
