We need to reform our immigration laws, but we need to do it the right way, and that means starting the process in the lawmaking branch of our Government.

At its core, the President's unilateral amnesty plan is deeply unfair to the millions who are waiting in line to become a part of our great Nation.

The President knows the damage of these actions.

The majority of Americans do not agree with the President's Executive Actions. They want Congress to find a solution--one that begins with securing our borders.

History has proven that amnesty perpetuates a cycle of illegal entry into this country.

This action has also 'poisoned the well' here in Washington at a time when Americans desperately want their Government to work together.

This administration has done the opposite. They have taken a sweeping approach to prosecutorial discretion that makes a mockery of the law.

The lax interior enforcement policies adopted by this administration coupled with even the perception of amnesty become a powerful magnet that encourages more illegal immigration.

By making an end-run around Congress, the President has deliberately and willfully broken the trust that is needed between our branches of Government.

This unprecedented Executive power grab undermines the principle that the people, not just one man, should be the ultimate decisionmakers.

This bill would require the administration to notify Congress when it authorizes a reward under the Rewards for Justice Program.
