... the real problem here is that the president has threatened administrative amnesty.
WASHINGTON D.C. (Texas Insider Report) The House has passed more than
340 bills that are awaiting action on the Senate doorstep said Cong. Lamar Smith earlier today joined fellow Republican
Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) Jeff Sessions (R-AL) and Mike Lee (R-UT) as well as Representatives Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) and others calling for the Senate to consider the
House border security package passed before August recess.
Among the bills the Senate has not taken up one of the most important is
the border security bill the House passed before the August recess.
The president says that the House has not acted. The House has acted. The Senate is frankly skirting its responsibility to act itself.
And the real problem here is that the president has threatened administrative amnesty.
Well the reason he has delayed his amnesty by executive order is because he is afraid of the American people. He knows that what he wants to do is not popular and not supported by the American people. And that is the problem" said Smith
The House package would end the expansion of President Obamas Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy. It would also close loopholes in existing laws and allow Central American minors to be treated the same as Canadian and Mexican minors with regard to expedited deportations.
