According to Democratic lawmaker Tony Cardenas, Obama will soon use his ´pen and phone´ and bypass Congress with an executive order to grant amnesty to many illegals.
Cardenas states he can only legally grant amnesty to 1 million illegals, but we know how much this president likes to obey the law.
Of course Obama wants all illegals to stay in the country. Whatever action he takes, one assumes he will leave the door open to grant amnesty to all.
Democratic lawmaker Tony Cardenas revealed that President Barack Obama promised the Congressional Hispanic Caucus on Wednesday he will “act shortly” to bypass Congress and grant some form of amnesty to many illegal immigrants.
Cardenas spoke with MSNBC’s Jose Diaz-Balart on Thursday about a meeting the Hispanic Caucus had with the president on Wednesday concerning the growing border crisis and comprehensive immigration reform.
The California congressman claimed that Obama committed to broad executive action on immigration reform — including granting legal status to hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants without congressional approval — and that such action will come “shortly.”
“It’s important to understand that the president made it very clear to the Hispanic Caucus yesterday that Congress is not acting,” Cardenas explained. “He let Speaker Boehner know many, many months ago to please go ahead and do something. He has not done it. And now’s the time for the president to act, and the president’s going to act shortly.”
“Do you know what actions the president will be taking?” a surprised Diaz-Balart asked. “I mean, the president has said to me in the past, he has said — and I’m quoting the president in the three last interviews we had — he said, ‘I’m not a king, I’m a president. There are only a few things I can do unilaterally.’”
Cardenas said the president agreed to use his “legal authority and latitude” to “give people some kind of status to the 11 million who are waiting to get some relief.”
“Not all of them,” the Democratic lawmaker explained. “The power of the president cannot relieve all 11 million. But there are categories of 500,000 or a million that he can give some kind of temporary status to.”
Evil.
If he does there is going to be open seaon on them. Can’t wait to buy my tags.You will be able to get 25 tags per hunting season. And there will be 6 hunting season in a year.

And we know that this will mean a whole lot more than Mexican illegals …
its just wrong that he is bypassing Congress. He can’t do that. It goes against the Constitution. We need to throw HIM out.
EFUBARED
Tony Cardenas is a liars liar, and knows full well that the corrupt impeachable one doesn’t have the authority to grant amnesty to illegal aliens and thwart the law. Lying after you have sworn an oath on the Bible, has its own punishment. Will we live to see it, who knows?
He seems to want to defy all legal channels. What does he thing he is
A King. Well a King of $#%&!@* is more correct
Evan McCoy That Should have Already Happened!
Jean Obama has done a lot that he doesn’t have the authority to do. Nothing this man does is legal or surprising
fire his ass.
