I would remind this body, Mr. Speaker, that over 13 times the highest court in this land, the Supreme Court, has ruled against this activist President for exceeding his constitutional authority. This President, in his own concoction of the way the country ought to be run, does not follow the rules, not the rule of law, not the rule of providing enough information for people by properly delineating the way rules and laws should be executed. That is why we are here today. It has everything to do with our belief that the President of the United States has not well and faithfully properly executed the laws of the country. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Carter).
