CBN News: Cruz: Obama's Immigration Order 'Lawless Amnesty'
President Barack Obama is defending his executive immigration order, saying he's been very restrained on the matter.
Obama says he waited a long time for Congress to act before he finally issued the order last week.
But Republicans and other critics, including some liberals, say the president has overreached.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, is calling on the incoming Senate majority leader to deter the president's decision.
"For 4 to 5 million people here illegally, he's promising to print up and give work authorizations," Cruz told "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace. "Essentially he's gotten in the job of counterfeiting immigration papers."
