Does this governor-elect have any teeth in his words or is it all political tongue wagging?
In an interview, Gov.-elect Greg Abbott, the current attorney general, said Texas Obama’s frequent vows to invoke questionable executive power to change immigration law have forced Texans to prepare for yet another “surge” of illegals crossing from the south.
Texas has shouldered considerable expense dealing with the problem of illegal immigration that’s being worsened by the White House, Abbott said, and one horn of any lawsuit would be getting the federal government to pay for problems it’s causing.
But he said the larger point is that immigration laws are made by the country from Capitol Hill, not the White House.
“We’re expecting the White House will not cross the line,” he said. “If the president crosses the line, he’s going to see an overwhelming rejection of what he’s trying to do.”
Gregg Abbott can chat with Rick Perry & Jan Brewer for needed guidance along these en-“sueing” lines.
According to the Constitution the power of the federal government comes from the states and the people. Time to assert states rights and nullify all the federal garbage that is ruining this country
I believe he will do it.. Governor Perry set the pace for dealing with Obama, and Abbott watched him get punished for it over and over. He understands how vengeful obama is, and He detests him. I will be very proud of this man if he continues to resist obama’s bullying and illegal actions. You Go, Gov. Elect Abbott!!
of he does this he needs to be impeached. He doesn’t have rhe authority or power to actually make law. EXECUTIVE orders are not legally binding.
Please speak the truth.
Damn I hope you do it……That ids why you won the elections….
Go Texas
White Power goddammit!!! May his Grand Wizardry shine upon thee….goddammit :p
He will do it. I have faith in Greg Abbott
Look for amnesty announcement over the Thanksgiving weekend.
