Who needs Congress when you can just make law by executive order?

These executive orders should have been severely restrcited by Congress decades ago,but both parties like having a way to go outside the system.

Obama defiles everything we stand for and abuses every law to achieve his disaster for America.

Demand Impeachment, now!

So how would this amnesty be financed and administered without the support of Congress? From the Obama stash?

For anyone who understands it legally please help me understand: how can an Executive Order be binding? It’s not law; there’s no statute to refer to. Why are states obligated to follow any “Executive Order”?

The president’s power to pardon is essentially unlimited. I wonder if there is any constitutional reason it can’t be used to pardon illegal aliens.

Exactly. A declaration of war against America, so be it.
