Hudson Statement on Bill that Fails to Block Obama’s Illegal Amnesty
 
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today U.S. Representative Richard Hudson (NC-08) released the following statement after voting against a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding bill stripped of all provisions blocking President Obama’s illegal executive actions on immigration:
 
“Like my constituents, I am outraged at President Obama’s unlawful actions to unilaterally rewrite our immigration laws and grant amnesty to nearly five million illegal immigrants. I stand firm in my belief that the President is carelessly ignoring the will of the American people and threatening the constitutional foundation of our nation. Just as troubling, the ramifications of his illegal amnesty scheme continue to unfold with the IRS confirming yesterday that illegal immigrants could be eligible to receive social security numbers and billions of tax dollars in benefits.
 
“It is past time to end these illegal actions and hold President Obama accountable, and today’s measure fails to do that. I refuse to vote to legitimize the President’s illegal actions and grant amnesty and hard-earned tax dollars to illegal immigrants. The fight is not over - I will continue to stand by my promise to do everything in my power to block President Obama’s illegal amnesty.”
 
In January, Rep. Hudsonvoted for the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act of 2015 (H.R. 240) to fully fund every lawful activity of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for FY2015 and block the President’s unconstitutional executive actions on immigration.
 
Last Friday, Rep. Hudson voted against two short-term DHS funding bills that kicked the can down the road and failed to block the President’s unconstitutional executive actions on immigration.
