Governor Jindal: The President of the United States has a problem with the law
Governor Jindal issued the following statement after a federal appeals court upheld an injunction against President Obama’s immigration order.
Governor Jindal said, "The Harvard Law School is getting a bad reputation. It turns out that their most famous graduate has a problem obeying the law. The latest blow to President Obama’s unlawful activities came today as the Firth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against the President’s effort to end run Congress in order to unilaterally grant amnesty to as many as 5 million illegal immigrants.
"The President’s justification for his latest unlawful gambit was simply that he was tired of waiting for Congress to act. Apparently, the Court did not find the President being tired to be a compelling reason for him to act in an unlawful manner. Here’s the truth of the matter, the President is not simply tired of Congress, he is also tired of the American people.
"Here’s an idea for the President – since he has grown tired of trying to work with Congress, perhaps he should issue an executive order directing that we secure our southern border. Or better yet, perhaps he should work with Congress to do just that. I’m sure he could get a majority of the members of Congress to agree on securing the border."
