@AndrewKolvet If the framers of the 14th Amendment intended to create an incentive for birth tourism, they would have said so. They didn’t. They wrote it to secure the rights of freed slaves, not to address modern immigration policy.
@SenatorDurbin You had 44 years to write the law you wanted. Instead, you relied on a temporary program and hoped nobody would notice what the ‘T’ in TPS stands for.
@RepDWStweets You say “nobody is above the law,” yet you’re asking Congress to override a Supreme Court ruling because you don’t like the result. That’s not how checks and balances work.
@RepMaxwellFrost Bold campaign strategy: devote your time to people who can’t vote for you while the people who can are wondering who’s representing them.
@tomaskenn If people are complying with the legal process, portraying routine appointments as terrifying only fuels unnecessary panic. Stop the fear-mongering.
@ERodforCongress The moral outrage is truly inspiring. Now let’s see those years of tweets calling Obama “despicable” for enforcing immigration law. Take your time. We’ll wait for you to provide your receipts.
What’s truly despicable isn’t the Supreme Court’s ruling. It’s elected officials telling the American people that when the highest court in the land issues a decision they don’t like, it shouldn’t be respected. What message does that send to the millions of law-abiding Americans who follow the rules every day? The rule of law doesn’t stop applying because a ruling is politically inconvenient.
