Excerpt: Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act plainly states that, [w]henever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.
Once again, a nationwide injunction is permitting a single judge to thwart the Presidents policy judgment on a matter where Congress expressly gave the President authority.
It is wrong and unfair for a single district court judge to thwart the policies that the President determined would best protect the United States healthcare system and for the United States taxpayers to suffer the grave consequences of the immense strain inflicted on the healthcare system from subsidizing uncompensated care for those seeking admission.
“We strongly disagree with the district courts decision to impose a nationwide injunction against the Presidents policy...”
Its nice to disagree, but how about doing something that will stop this activist judicial overreach? I am not a lawyer, but I have read enough to understand judges can’t set decisions for other districts. Other districts can submit to a decision, or deny it. Trump needs to actively challenge this overreach so it will stop. By the time another court overturns this, much of the mouth breathing public will already believe Trump’s action was illegal.
This was Decide by the Supreme Court already (muslim ban) he should file an emergency appeal and the Supreme Court should slap them down hard for this and issue an Order from the Court that District Courts do NOT have any authority to issue any Nationwide Injunctions on Anything.
the president has only to declare it an “emergency” and then he has unlimited powers granted by the constitution itself.
When are they going to defy one of these nationwide injunctions from a district court?
The U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon is a federal court serving the area corresponding to the state of Oregon. The District has courthouses in Portland, Eugene, Medford, and Pendleton.
One state.
NOT anywhere else in the country.
Would certainly like to see President Trump say, ‘No, you have no authority in this case...Well will implement the law as planned’...
Why in the hell does the Executive branch pay attention to them. Ignore them and their rulings as having no standing. Throw the judiciary into crisis. They are an equal branch, but not every single judge is equal to the President. Pound sand and FO, let them get out of thier little robes and enforce their rulings.
Black robe tyranny.
Great statement on behalf of the president. I hope this ultra leftist judge gets slapped down hard. And that Gramnesty either starts pushing district court nominees through the judiciary committee or hands the chair back to Grassley.
