Obama immigration order temporarily halted by Texas judge - CNN.com
A federal judge in Texas has temporarily blocked President Barack Obama's executive action on immigration, which has drawn opposition from 26 states across the nation.
United States District Judge Andrew Hanen ruled late Monday night to block executive actions Obama took late last year to shield as many as 5 million undocumented immigrants from deportation. In delaying the ruling, Hanen halted Obama's executive action, ruling that the administration had failed to comply with the Administrative Procedure Act, which calls for the White House to afford a longer notification and comment period before taking action.
The White House said in a statement early Tuesday that Obama's actions "are well within his legal authority" and that the Justice Department has indicated "that it will appeal that decision".
"The district court's decision wrongly prevents these lawful, commonsense policies from taking effect," the White House said in a statement. "The Supreme Court and Congress have made clear that the federal government can set priorities in enforcing our immigration laws — which is exactly what the President did when he announced commonsense policies to help fix our broken immigration system."

If you want to suggest Obama is a dictator and he can do what he wants then so be it. However his policies changed the law by allowing illegals benefits reserved for US Citizens. This he does not have the power to do... unless of course you say he has dictatorial powers.
Every single president since Ford has "carved out large exception pools" on immigration.One can only hope that executive decisions to carve out large exception pools to standing laws will be decalred unconstitutional. If each administration's executive decides to enforce the same laws differently then why bother to pretend to have equal protection of the law?

Immigration reform is nothing more than code for lets give amnesty(legal status, pathway to citizenship or some other paper coated term for amnesty) to people who took a **** on our sovereignty with hollow promises of enforcement. Real immigration reform is preventing illegals from using government services for themselves and their kids.Real immigration reform is prevent illegals from opening bank accounts, using money wiring services and check cashing services. Real immigration reform is mandating e-verify for every employer,contractor and sub-contractor. Real immigration reform is repealing part of the immigration nationality act of 1965 that allows for the chain migration of relatives other than spouse or minor children. Real immigration reform is sticking scum who hire illegals into prison and making them subject to asset seizure of forfeiture just like other criminals who profit form illegal activities. Real immigration reform is cracking down on sanctuary states and arresting elected officials in those states for encouraging people to come in and stay in this country illegally.Real immigration reform is making illegal entry into the US a felony instead of a misdemeanor for the first offense. Real immigration reform is making residing in the US illegally a felony.Real immigration is cutting off visas to countries we have the most illegal immigration problems with.I agree however this could be avoided if Congress would do immigration reform..
First, build a fence and protect the border.
Second, immigrants should have a path to citizenship, including an application filed while in their home country, in person and if approved, entry into the county through legal entry points
