Congress has acted. Several congresses, in fact, have written an elaborate array of immigration laws designed to prescribe the rules by which a petitioner becomes a citizen. I’m pretty sure there is already a provision in the laws describing the disposition of those who break into the country. I suggest the president simply have his flunkies run a search and do whatever the laws already determine should be done to such individuals.
It Is Time For The Congress To Re-establish its constitutional authority
While the talkies, talk radio show hosts, need to remind US of this.. Members of the House and Senate also seem to forget. While those selected to head various federal departments of government are recomended by the incomming POTUS (president of the United States).
Such candidates are constitutionaly required to be approved by the Senate in a procedure known as advise and consent.. Those appointed then are also sworn to uphold, protect,serve, and support the constitution. Not the executive branch. .
These appointees can and should refuse any executive order.Or allow the executive branch create a political appointee who over rides their congressional authority. Particularly. If and when that executive order is designed to ignore existing congressional legislation which defines a departments jurisdiction or specific purpose protecting the interests of the country . Which places the country in danger, or minimizes the value of citizenship, or places its citizens in clear and eminent danger.
Therefore they and their respective departments must be held answerable to both houses of congress which funds these operations. And, should be held in contempt, censure, and impeachment and the funds witheld if refused to comply.
