Hudson Statement on U.S. v. Texas
WASHINGTON, D.C.– Today, U.S. Representative Richard Hudson (NC-08) released the following statement in response to the Supreme Court’s ruling in United States v. Texas, which upholds the lower court’s decision that the president’s abuse of executive action to grant amnesty to illegal immigrants is unlawful:
“When the president bypassed Congress and the American people’s concerns to unilaterally rewrite our nation’s immigration laws and grant amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants, he abused our nation’s separation of powers and the rule of law. Today’s ruling puts this debate to rest and proves what I’ve said all along: the president’s actions were unlawful.”
