Legal experts see any challenge to the expected immigration policy changes headed for the same key roadblock facing House Speaker John Boehner’s planned suit over Obamacare implementation delays: finding a way to show the injury needed to press a case in the federal courts. (snip)

Great work! Thanks!

Form the Red States Association (RSA). The first thing to do is to block all taxes being sent to D.C. and put the money in impound accounts. Declare that they not recognize Congressional or Presidential Amnesty to all illegal aliens who have come into this country since 2000.
Inform the Federal Government and the Federal Courts that out of dire necessity, the RSA will form a mutual law enforcement and border enforcement organization to guard the border, sea ports and airports, and to apprehend, detain, and deport all illegal aliens, men, women, and children, as it is provable that Obama has clearly abandoned his duty to protect the States, and the Federal Courts have clearly supported him. The RSA will use impounded money to pay for these efforts to restore the borders and enhance the safety of U.S. citizens.
The RSA will make it a policy that State, County, and City peace officers must be notified before any Federal Officer makes an arrest or serves a warrant, and the State AG, and all County Public Defenders and City Attorneys MUST be informed of any further surveillance of citizens, approval must be granted by the in the jurisdiction of the surveillance activity.
The RSA will order the immediate expulsion of all Federal Agencies which have enacted policies detrimental to the economies of the RSA, and the freedoms of its citizens. The IRS and the EPA will be the first two agencies to be expelled.
The RSA will cease to send Senators and Congressmen to Washington D.C. and will no longer participate in the perversions of the U.S. Constitution regarding the First, Second, Fourth, and Fifth Amendments.

That is beautiful.
The time is nigh.
Thank you.
Article I Section 10No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.
Article IV Section 4The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

Further, as the House has not exercised its Constitutional duties to withhold funds to oppose Obama's lawlessness, the States must act in their own interests. The Federal Government can make no further claim that is responsible for enforcing immigration as it is plain that it is complicit in the collapse of the border and unrestrained entry of illegal aliens into the United States.
You are suggesting a compact between states, which requires Congressional approval. Article I Section 10 gives the states the right to bypass Congressional approval if they are actually invaded or in imminent danger.
Both of these conditions can be met. They are being invaded by uncontrolled illegal entry of minors and other non-regional foreignors. Imminent danger is possible with the serious diseases that these people are bringing with them.
Article IV Section 4 also grants the states the right to protect their borders from invasion, as well as any domestic violence that might occur as a result.
As you said, the states do not need permission from the federal government to protect the families of their residents. I'm pointing out the Constitutional provisions that declare this.

I think the States have more than enough evidence to form a mutually protective compact. Waiting only increases the danger to the citizens of all the States.
LOL - I LEAPED before I LOOKED!
Oh, I know; believe me, I know.
Form the Red States Association (RSA). The first thing to do is to block all taxes being sent to D.C. and put the money in impound accounts. Declare that they not recognize Congressional or Presidential Amnesty to all illegal aliens who have come into this country since 2000.
Several things:
Art I, Section. 10, Para. 1
No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility.
Inform the Federal Government and the Federal Courts that out of dire necessity, the RSA will form a mutual law enforcement and border enforcement organization to guard the border, sea ports and airports, and to apprehend, detain, and deport all illegal aliens, men, women, and children, as it is provable that Obama has clearly abandoned his duty to protect the States, and the Federal Courts have clearly supported him. The RSA will use impounded money to pay for these efforts to restore the borders and enhance the safety of U.S. citizens.
Again, that is functionally an alliance and violative of the Constitution.
The RSA will make it a policy that State, County, and City peace officers must be notified before any Federal Officer makes an arrest or serves a warrant, and the State AG, and all County Public Defenders and City Attorneys MUST be informed of any further surveillance of citizens, approval must be granted by the in the jurisdiction of the surveillance activity.
Alliance.
The RSA will order the immediate expulsion of all Federal Agencies which have enacted policies detrimental to the economies of the RSA, and the freedoms of its citizens. The IRS and the EPA will be the first two agencies to be expelled.
No need for an alliance here — the states have the authority to do this already.
All a State would have to do is slap them with state-level Treason charges and federal level charges of 18 U.S. Code § 242 - Deprivation of rights under color of law and 18 U.S. Code § 241 - Conspiracy against rights.
The RSA will cease to send Senators and Congressmen to Washington D.C. and will no longer participate in the perversions of the U.S. Constitution regarding the First, Second, Fourth, and Fifth Amendments.
That would constitute consent to not be represented in the federal government:
Article. V.
The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.
Thank you. I deeply appreciate the information which either supports or doesn’t support what I propose. I am begging the Governors to do what they are allowed to do by law.
