Introduced in House (11/20/2014) by Rep. Ted Yolo (R-FL)
Executive Amnesty Prevention Act of 2014 - States that no provision of the Constitution, the Immigration and Nationality Act, or other federal law shall be interpreted or applied to authorize the executive branch of the government to exempt, by executive order, regulation, or any other means, categories of persons unlawfully present in the United States from removal under the immigration laws.
Declares any action by the executive branch with the purpose of circumventing the objectives of this statute null and void and without legal effect.
Makes this Act effective retroactively, applying to any such exemption made at any time.
Good law, but the president won’t stop it.
We need something to stopgap this until next congress, and then we need to permanently stop it. Nothing requiring a presidential signature will be successful.
