PAXTON: Court Denies Obama Admins Illegal Amnesty Implementation

We will continue to fight the brazen lawlessness that has become a trademark of the Obama Administration." Texas Insider Report: AUSTIN Texas  Telling illegal aliens that they are now lawfully present in this country and awarding them valuable government benefits is a drastic change in immigration policy. The separation of powers and checks and balances remain the law of the land and this decision is a victory for those committed to preserving the rule of law in America."

 Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton after the U.S. Court of Appeals 5th Circuit today denied the Administrations request to begin implementing the presidents illegal amnesty plan despite a federal judges Feb. 16th ruling to halt the program.     

The presidents attempt to do this by himself without a law passed by Congress and without any input from the states is a remarkable violation of the U.S Constitution and laws. We will continue to fight the brazen lawlessness that has become a trademark of the Obama Administration" Paxton said.

• Work Permits
• Tax Credits
• Social Security
• Medicare
• Drivers Licenses
