Um no. Immigration is under the control of Congress. Read the Constitution.
“Um no. Immigration is under the control of Congress. Read the Constitution.”
But The President can close the border any time he chooses.
The Executive executes the Laws enacted by Congress. The Laws are already on the books. Just because previous presidents did not enforce them does not mean that they are not the law of the land.
Article clearly states.....”even if Congress were to explicitly say that “all aliens seeking admission shall be granted status,” the president can still exclude anyone he wants...... Once an alien is ‘lawfully’ admitted, THEN Congress controls the rules of naturalization or deportation, although Justice Thomas believes the president might also have inherent power to deport as well. See Sessions v. Dimaya (2018, THOMAS, J., dissenting, slip op., 13–14).
I read that the immigration laws enacted by Congress specifically grant the President the authority to suspend all or part of immigration into the U.S. if events such as this caravan necessitate it.
So the judge is actually telling Congress the courts have the last word on immigration laws.
um read the law congress passed

Section 212(f), states: “Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.”
