The Republican U.S. House voted Wednesday to overturn President Barack Obama's key immigration policies, approving legislation that would eliminate new deportation protections for millions and expose hundreds of thousands of younger (so-called) immigrants to expulsion.

IMHO Obama went too far with that DACA bit and, he needs his chain yanked.

Let's hope that the senate passes this, too.

Recently Obama warned congress and the senate that he will veto anything he doesn't like. So let's hope that this passes with a veto-proof majority.

I read that when Obama told them about him using the veto, he did so in hopes that it would intimidate republicans from trying to pass any bills. Charlie Dent (R-PA) said words to the effect that he wasn't a potted plant. He's a congressman who was put there to represent his constituents and work for them.

Glad to see that those who voted to pass this aren't going to let the Dictator-in-Chief intimidate them!

This isn't just about DACA though. It is also about the 4.7 million that he recently gave a stay of deportation to simply because they have U.S. born kids. I guess the ticket to a free ride here is to either bring your kids here illegally or give birth on our soil. What a message that sends to rest of the world and what an incentive for more to come.

The message to the rest of the world, is The US is no longer what it once was, or stood for. We are a joke a laughing stock, I am sure to leaders around the world.

We are a farce. And other world leaders know it too!

Bottom line is that the free ticket to illegals, is more important then the needs and wants of American Citizens, and that is crap. Sell us out, for what, more votes, that says a awful lot about one Party.

Also, our enemies are probably smacking their lips seeing how easy it is to violate our borders and remain here without threat of deportation.

Thanks for posting. I just went and emailed both of our Senators. Obama has to be stopped. Everything I learned about how our government is supposed to work when I was in high school in the early 70's seems to not apply anymore. I even called the school once and asked if they still taught American Government. The school wasn't even upset that I asked because they felt exactly as I did. I see a increase of new illegals here where they openly provide jobs for them at low wages. KS will go broke from public assistance payments if the illegals get a pathway to citizenship but they sort of deserve it for letting it go for such a long time. I still have issues with those that use the illegals every which way yet they don't want to make them citizens and they surely don't want them deported, not their low cost workers.
