In a defiant challenge to GOP leaders, immigration hardliners in Congress announced Wednesday they will oppose upcoming legislation to keep the government open. They demanded specific provisions to stop President Barack Obama's executive actions that granted a reprieve from deportation for millions.
"We aren't with our vote going to give him one dime to execute his illegal action, and we believe the American people are going to stand with us," said Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., at a press conference outside the Capitol where she was joined by other House conservatives and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas.
Cruz warned against "having a meaningless show vote" and said: "We should announce we mean what we say, we will use our constitutional authorities to force this president to faithfully execute the laws."

Hope they keep up the pressure as long as it takes.
Hardliners=those who believe laws are there for a reason.
They wish only to say: “NO COMMENT” because their supporters might get mad.
Obama’s the hardliner and its not opposing his immigration action, its opposing his illegal executive order
“Hardliners stand up to GOPe leadership (and Chambers of Commerce) to do what they promised voters one month ago!”
hardliners - obey the law and constitution

Do your own DD...This is all smoke and mirrors!!!!!!!!
Hardliners. Those are not hard liners. They sre every day ordinary Americans standing up for their country standing up for liberty standing up for freedom standing up for the rule of law. Obama is the hardliner. The GOP is enabling Obama’s tyranny.
I’m bumping my prayer list to include some of these “hardliner” patriots.
