Obama kind of gave some of that already by pres order.

For which he should be impeached. His "backdoor amnesty" to the so-callled Dreamers involves over 3 million people. He has effectively stopped immigration enforcement, Those who receive this legalization receive SSNs and work permits. They can travel freely to and from this country.

Any legislation that legalizes the status of the lawbreakers and allows them to stay and work here-the object of their crime-is amnesty. Citizenship is just an add-on.

Citizenship gives them the vote.

Once they are legalized, it will only be a matter of time before that happens no matter how the legislators write the bill. The Dems will use it against Reps once legalization occurs. And how can anyone trust Obama to enforce anything when he choose which laws to enforce and not enforce and uses Executive Orders to legislate and create laws outside the Constitution?

The current example is Obamacare as Obama decides which parts of the law to implement and which to delay or ignore. Congress has failed to challenge this unconstitutional use of authority.

Funny you should mention that. Remember when Republicans thought the POTUS picking and choosing that was a great idea?

A panel of legal scholars and lawyers assembled by the American Bar Association is sharply criticizing the use of "signing statements" by President Bush that assert his right to ignore or not enforce laws passed by Congress
