President Obama’s plan to give legal status to millions of undocumented workers is outside of the scope of his authority, says the Fifth Circuit.
A three-judge panel of U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled against President Barack Obama’s amnesty with a late Monday decision that will probably last until after Obama leaves office on Jan. 20, 2017.
Unless Obama convinces the full Fifth Circuit, or the U.S. Supreme Court, to intervene immediately, Obama’s amnesty program is dead.
In November 2014, Obama ordered the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to implement a program called Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA).
Ken Klukowski explains in detail the significance of all of this, and it’s worth a read. Conservatives should note this is only the beginning. Obama might have failed, but both Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton have promised executive action on immigration should they be elected.
