So, just rewrite the law to remove all doubt as to the nature of the crimes, and resubmit it.

What Senate do you think could pass any bill that makes it easier to deport criminals? He could have just helped out by deciding what Congress really meant, to say sort of like fee/fine/tax.

By calling this guy brilliant you necessarily call the other four stupid, right?

As Gorsuch stated, the law must be precise enough to provide notice as to what the prohibited actions are. You could say, yes, you can come here, but if you get a parking ticket you will be deported. That is precise notice, and perhaps constitutional (if it is not capriciously petty), but no one would risk liberty and property to come here under such circumstances.

A law that states you can be deported for any reason that Neil Gorsuch finds constitutional would for the notice reason be unconstitutional.

Did I call him brilliant? Did I call anyone stupid? I thought I was only acknowledging his position on the issue, which is one that appears correct. Get the legislation right, down to the last dotted I and crossed T.
