Amnesty in DHS hands

President Obama's immigration scheme has potentially set up one of his cabinet members as the "fall guy" in case his plan implodes.

 

It turns out that President Obama's amnesty push, disguised as immigration reform measures, did not come through a signed Executive Order, as indicated would happen by the President in a Las Vegas speech. Instead, it was executed through a memorandum issued by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary, Jeh Johnson on the

same day as the President's speech.

 

According to The Heritage Foundation's Daily Signal, Johnson issued a memorandum to the enforcement divisions of Homeland Security "directing them to implement Obama's amnesty. The memorandum, 'Exercising Prosecutorial Discretion with Respect to Individuals Who Came to the

United States as Children and with Respect to Certain Individuals Whose Parents are U.S. Citizens or Permanent Residents,' is 'intended to reflect new policies for the use of deferred action.'"

 

The ploy sets Jeh Johnson up as the fall guy for possible impeachment, directing the heat away from the President, if congressional action against the amnesty plan is taken.

 

Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) is incensed by the Obama

administration's tactics.  WND is reporting that Sen. Sessions believes the scheme is ill-advised . "'I guess they just whispered in the ear of (DHS Director) Jeh Johnson

over at Homeland Security, 'Just put out a memo. That way we don't have to enforce the law.'

 

"The senator believes the result was 'the creation of a new,

alternative immigration system' despite the fact the president 'is not empowered to do that.'

 

"He called Obama's amnesty a scheme Congress had explicitly rejected after multiple efforts. 'The House said no, and the American people said no. Congress said no, and the president has gone forward. We've got a challenge, but I think the American people get it. I think they are going to insist their voice will be heard."  Today is the day to make your voice heard!

 

In my nearly three decades of work in the legal field specializing in constitutional law, I have NEVER witnessed a more blatant and consistent disregard for the Constitution as we have seen from this President and his administration!

 

That's why I am calling on every friend of Liberty Counsel Action to take action today. Already, tens of thousands of faxes have filled the Capitol Hill offices of our lawmakers calling on them to stop our lawless President. Now we have a limited number of days to make sure they continue to get our message - and take appropriate action.

 

I urge you to use Liberty Counsel Action's powerful Fax Barrage messaging system to send a clear mandate to your two Georgia senators and representative.

 

Attorneys General are united to fight.  Eighteen states are engaging in a lawsuit that charges the Obama's immigration action with violating the Constitution's "Take Care" clause and seeks to block the President's unconstitutional overreach.

 

This latest Obama tactic wreaks of the administration's methodology used in the killing of the Defense of Marriage Act. In that case, they "deemed" the law to be unconstitutional and declared that the Department of Justice would not enforce or defend the law.

 

Please take a minute right now to send your message to Capitol Hill! If you have already sent faxes, consider sending another round as we've added 31 additional lawmakers to the Fax Barrage because of the strong response we are seeing!

 

The fact that the President's stealth plan for "amnesty" has been underway for some time is evidenced by the fact that the DHS has already procured a processing facility and is hiring 1,000 processing agents.

 

We are gaining momentum and traction in Washington. Congressional leaders are taking note of our initiative to stop President Obama's lawlessness. That's why I'm urging you to continue your Fax Barrage of congressional offices!
