House declares Obama's immigration action 'null and void'

House Republicans have passed a bill denouncing President Barack Obama's executive actions on immigration and declaring them "null and void."

The legislation, which passed 219-197, declares it would undo the measures Obama announced last month to extend work permits and relief from deportation to more than 4 million immigrants in this country illegally.

Yet all acknowledged the vote was mostly symbolic since the bill stands no chance in the Senate and faces a veto threat from Obama.

[Thinkingabout]

7. Null and Void, yep, this is the title they should give themselves. They have had a

bill from the Senate for over a year, Null and Void is what happened, never brought to the floor to vote on it, Boehner doesn't have the backbone to stand up to the TP side and would have the votes with Democrats voting with him but he is too weak to stand up.

[Major Hogwash]

16. Boehnor's reaction to President Obama's Executive Order concerning immigration --

By condemning President Obama's Executive Order, the GOP will not get more than 5% of the Hispanic vote in 2016.
You read it here first.

13. Obama declares House Republicans to be ridiculous and ignorant.

[Purveyor]

14. I just can't see many immigrants signing up and registering for the Presidents

program unless it is certain that a GOP gov't, come Jan. 2017, can't undo this executive order with a stroke of a pen.

I sure as hell wouldn't.

[easychoice]

15. yeah Purveyor -- Ask any Native American

You can't trust these clowns at all.

[stone space]

23. I can. A decade ago, we would have grasped the opportunity in a second. (nt)

[ReRe]

18. Ha! They wish.

Boehner and the House are up to their stupid stuff again. They're real good at it, they've been practicing for 6 years now.

[Live and Learn]

19. Should have been more honest and just declared the House, Null and Void for the

next couple of years.

But we already knew that! In fact, they could have added, 'and just a waste of taxpayer dollars' to that definition

[Elmer S. E. Dump]

20. I hope all Latinos know about this. No matter who you are...

No matter your nationality, ethnicity, race, color, creed, religion, or sexuality - the Republicans hate you unless you have a million dollars in your wallet. Wake up people! The only people that should be voting for Republicans are the people so brainwashed and braindead they just can't tell the difference, ie.: Teabaggers.

[srican69]

21. we should instead print copies of the order and let them shoot it with a gun

It might make them feel better

[Orsino]

24. Lamestanding. n/t
