![Obama Lectures #SCOTUS And GOP On Immigration Ruling [VIDEO]](https://victorygirlsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/courtruling.jpg)
One of Obama’s key legacy items hit a massive roadblock late this morning courtesy of a succinct one-sentence ruling by the United States Supreme Court.
The judgment is affirmed by an equally divided Court.
Well that’s certainly blunt. So, what’s this all about?
The case, United States v. Texas, centered on the Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents program, known simply as DAPA. Amid years of intense pressure from immigration-reform activists, President Obama unilaterally created the program by executive order in November 2014 shortly after Republican victories in the midterm elections. [emphasis added]
That’s the key right there. Obama wanted DAPA to provide amnesty to all illegal immigrants from deportation for more than three years. Thus, in 2014 he slung his pen across the paper and made a law. No, he didn’t sign a law passed by Congress, he circumvented Congress entirely.
Understandably the lawsuits started immediately, and the case made it all the way to the US Supreme Court due to the fact that all lower courts had placed injunctions on DAPA. In other words, they kept upholding the Constitution and rule of law rather than bowing to Obama’s mighty pen.
