Appeals court rules against Obama immigration plan - US News

nov 9 2015 NEW ORLEANS (AP) — President Barack Obama's plan to protect from deportation an estimated 5 million people living in the United States illegally has suffered another setback in court.

In a 2-1 decision, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans upheld a Texas-based judge's injunction blocking the Obama administration's immigration initiative.

Republicans had criticized the plan as an illegal executive overreach when Obama announced it last November. Twenty-six states challenged the plan in court.

Maybe these 5 million can "self-deport" .

They will if we stop the freebies. No welfare or free health care or free schooling all of which are in violation of federal law BTW. Getting rid of illegals is easy and will SAVE america hundreds of billions of $ every year!!

From the article:

The 70-page majority opinion by Judge Jerry Smith, joined by Jennifer Walker Elrod, rejected administration arguments that the district judge abused his discretion with a nationwide order and that the states lacked standing to challenge Obama's executive orders.

I can't believe that the Obama Admin actually argued that States had no standing to challenge Obama's EO's regarding a case that is about millions of people inside their own borders.

It's a pathetic argument but i am not surprised O tried it. He was successful in saying SOLDIERS SENT INTO BATTLE had no standing to challenge his eligibility to be prez and thus CIC.

Obozo says his amnesty is a form of "prosecutorial discretion" and that is absurd. Sometimes criminals are not prosecuted for PAST crimes but i don't know of any case where the govt gave anyone a certificate saying they could break our laws in the future!!!! And obama wants to give this certificate to 5 million - actually it will be more like 40 million.

This is way way beyond prosecutorial discretion.

He needs to do the job he was elected to do. If he can't do his job, he should resign.

The fifth circuit is the most conservative in the country, this was an expected defeat. My understanding was that once the suit was filed the administration maneuvered to have the case heard as quickly as possible in order to get the disposition they expected so that they could file an appeal to the Supreme Court before President Obama left office. Barring a change to that plan it seems likely that this will only be resolved by the Supreme Court, and yes then we will be bound by the courts. I only hope you are as sanguine about that when a final judgment is rendered as you are right now.

Here are two concepts that Democrats, not all but many, seem to have problems with; 1) follow the law, and 2) enforce the law.

Simple, I know. But for some reason, it seems to be beyond the comprehension of some.

Its funny how Obama refuses to do his job but people bitch about Kim Davis not doing her job.

This is why it is laughable when pro-illegals try to argue that states have no standing. It is the states that pay for it and have to deal with it.

And obozo will likely win in the SC since he is blackmailing CJ John Roberts over the way he illegally adopted his kids.

I feel genuinely sorry for you. You live in a prison of delirium that has only a passing resemblance to reality. I wish you the best.

You won't get rid of illegals until you start to jail the predatory criminals who employ them. Simple. They're being lured to your country and as long as powerful people make money off of them, ways will be found.

Start your law enforcement by jailing the criminals who employ illegal immigrants. They're luring people into your country so they can make money off them. That's who your enemies are.

No real argument here, but the employers are not the only draw - so are our social programs, great health care, and free education for their kids.

It'd be a good start. Try something a bit different, might work.
Never gonna happen, though, is it. Wrong toes 'n all.

He won't file an appeal with the Supreme Court. They wouldn't accept it and if they did he would lose. That is why he didn't file an appeal on the case prior to this so he went to court with a new case. It didn't work because he doesn't have a case.

They have already signaled their intent to appeal to the Supreme Court.

“We remain confident that this executive action will be ruled constitutional by the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, we are continuing to help people get ready to apply for administrative relief. Already we have helped more than 2,000 Texans get informed and ready."

They will get slapped down. They have before and they will again, with the same arguments.

^A fun way to point out a Super Capitalist.

They don't believe in "General Welfare" as the Constitution. They don't believe in "Free Healthcare" like Jesus Healed. And they think Knowledge should be restricted by $.

But more about the post, they think illegals is a Left Wing issue and don't understand the Right Wing wants them because of their low labor costs which was proven when Bush had the House and Senate and Presidency. They said they can't do anything because to many American Businesses would go out of business! This was YEARS ago!

It's not. :shrug: No one said such so not sure why you posted this. Especially since we're not even talking about American Citizens.
