Seven states joined Texas's lawsuit challenging President Obama's executive amnesty plan this week, brining the total number of states on the suit to 24.
"More than 20 states have joined our challenge against the president’s unilateral executive action to bypass Congress and rewrite immigration laws," Texas Attorney General and governor-elect Greg Abbott said in a release. "The president’s proposed executive decree violates the U.S. Constitution and federal law, circumvents the will of the American people and is an affront to the families and individuals who follow our laws to legally immigrate to the United States.”
The list of states now suing Obama over his unilateral amnesty now includes: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, North Carolina, South Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
Plaintiffs received a huge boost to their cause Monday when the same judge who once called Obama's immigration policy a "criminal conspiracy" was assigned to hear the case. And last week, Abbott filed a motion for a preliminary injunction which could stop the amnesty before legal documents are scheduled to be handed out this June.
Washington needs to pay for the state cost of their failure.
It is not fair to the border states to be forced to absorb so many foreign nationals.
The CA Dems must be coordinating with La Raza to expedite the creation of Aztlan...

Can you post a link to the info about “38 states”?
Pinging all y’all to this post!
I’m afraid I can’t agree with you on that—I mean, I don’t mind them trying, but the complete capitulation by the GOP Congress is being insulting and offensive and, like the Dems, unamerican.
Me too but I’m not holding my breath. The TN farmers love their illegals and our law enforcement and politicians just look the other way. I have had deputies tell me that they just have to turn them loose if they catch them. Our local Farm Bureau insurance company even advocates allowing more into the country. One thing that infuriates most citizens in my area is the the local Democratic party advertises in the paper that they offer free English classes.
‘Where, perchance, did you find this? ‘
Please read the Constitution of the US.
3/4 of the states = 38

Please don’t block our only exit from the US. We Michiganders may want to become undocumented in Canada!

Yes, I know that.
But where does it say 3/4 of the states can "fire" the President?
‘But where does it say 3/4 of the states can “fire” the President? “
Do you understand what a Constitution is?
It is the LAW of the country.
This country was founded on this.
Art V says that approval by 3/4 of states can do anything affecting this country.
That means:
Dissolving Congress
Dissolving the Supreme court
Firing the President. NO impeachment by the HOuse followed by removal by the Senate, but FIRING. It is taking actions into one’s own hands.

Dissolving Congress

Excuse me, but have you actually read Article V?
It states only that 3/4 of the states are necessary to ratify amendments to the Constitution. If you want to propose an amendment to the Constitution that "fires" Obama...or dissolves Congress...or the SCOTUS...I suppose you could.
But it seems a bit awkward...

Let me make this extremely simple for you:
3/4 of the states can decide to do ANYTHING.
That means scrapping the entire Constitution if they desire.
This country has a founding, and that is what ART V is about - its founding.
