Inhofe: Obama breaks the law ‘all the time’
Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) said President Obama would be breaking the law if he takes executive action on immigration.
{mosads}“He does break the law, and he does it all the time,” Inhofe said on the Senate floor Thursday.
Later Thursday night, Obama is expected to announce an executive order to issue nearly 5 million work visas to immigrants, many of whom have children who are U.S. citizens. The administration has said this action is legal and necessary because the House failed to take up Senate-passed immigration reform legislation.
Inhofe said this would be “just another one of our laws that gets broken.” He used the example of Obama releasing prisoners from Guantánamo Bay detention facility in exchange for U.S. soldier Bowe Bergdahl.
