Hudson: It's Time to Fight President Obama's Illegal Actions

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Richard Hudson (NC-08) released the following statement after requesting Congressional Leadership to immediately bring legislation to the floor that blocks President Obama’s illegal executive amnesty:

“Like my constituents, I am completely fed up with President Obama’s repeated abuse of power and disregard for the rule of law. By bypassing Congress to unilaterally change our nation’s immigration laws, he is disrespecting our constitution and ignoring the American peoples’ demands that leaders in Washington work together. The bottom line is the President’s actions were unlawful, and it’s time to continue the fight and send President Obama legislation that forces him to make a choice: does he stand with the American people, or does he continue to push his unconstitutional executive amnesty? I will continue to stand up for my constituents when President Obama stands in the way of their priorities.”

Rep. Hudson led his like-minded conservative colleagues to request that the House stand firm in its efforts to oppose the President’s executive action and place comprehensive restrictions on the funding for its implementation as soon as possible in the 114th Congress.
