Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) is concerned that dangerous criminals and terrorists will not get deported when President Barack Obama enacts his executive amnesty and further weakens the nation's immigration laws and enforcement mechanisms.
In a Wednesday letter to Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, Grassley, the Ranking Member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, wrote that it is "unsettling" that Obama "is intent on condoning contempt for the rule of law and ignoring his Constitutional duty to 'take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed.'"
“The egregious use of executive action and rule by fiat is bad enough, but knowing that undocumented criminals continue to be released into communities, even this past year, and could still remain in the country is outrageous,” Grassley said in a statement. “The Obama administration allowed tens of thousands of undocumented criminals to stay in communities across the country despite a policy specifically stating that these people be deported. The Department released murderers and domestic abusers from its custody. So, why would anyone trust this administration going forward?”
Grassley noted that Obama's executive amnesty, which Obama will formally announce on Thursday evening, is "more disturbing" given that the Department of Homeland Security has admittedly failed "to deport 36,007 convicted criminals—including 169 homicide convicts—who were all released back onto the streets" in fiscal year 2013. Grassley said that because of these failures, "there is a genuine concern as to whether deportations of convicted criminals and those who pose a national security risk will be any different under a new enforcement memorandum.” Obama will reportedly scrap the "Secure Communities" program in addition to providing executive amnesty to as many as five million illegal immigrants.

That's what it's designed to do, Silly!
Obama is clearly not protecting the states from invasion.
Article 4 Section 4 says ‘He Shall’.
The governors could get an injunction based on that alone.
There’s also the issue of him going unconstitutional to do this, above and beyond that using Executive Orders.
If we don’t stop this immediately, future judges will default to the idea it’s already a done deal and can’t be undone.
More PONTIFICATING from "Blowing to the Galleries" central.
I'm TIRED of hearing the TALK.
When in "THE HELL" is someone, anyone in Washington, going to stand up AGAINST this with a PLAN and LEADERSHIP in carrying it out???
Grassley has a fairly strong conservative record. He isn’t a RINO anyway.
Dangerous criminal and terrorists? You mean such as he and his administration?

Good luck finding a judge who cares about the constitution or the law. This is not 20 years ago when what you are saying would have been a sure thing. The governors and Sheriffs are on there own. They have to act on their own. And if the courts get in the way then they need to be ignored.
We live in a time when the exact meaning of the 2nd amendment..The exact wording has come to mean how it was written. When it is all so corrupt that legal system protects only the lawless and the tyrants then you can no longer turn to the courts to protect us. We need a few governors and sheriffs who are willing to take a powerful stand.
You know what, then make the SCOTUS out itself. Don’t just stand there with a dumb look on your face. (our leaders of course / well as if)
Every Republican governor should join an emergency class action to challenge this.
Something has to be done.
Actually if congress was serious about the judicial approach then they would call for an immediate emergency session of the supreme court. In the past the USSC has been called to an emergency session for a whole lot less. But congress is not serious. The GOP is just running out the clock while trying to make it look like they are doing something.
Exactly!
