Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) went on The Kelly File to discuss Barack Obama’s executive amnesty plan.
This last election was a referendum on amnesty. And the American people overwhelmingly rose up and said “no.” We don’t want lawless amnesty. ANd, I’m sorry to say President Obama’s reaction is defiant and it is angry with the American people. And, if the president goes forward with this, if he goes forward unilaterally defying the Congress elected by the people, defying the American voters, then it’s incumbant on Republicans in Congress to use every single Constitutional tool we have to defend the rule of law to reign in a president so the president does not become an unaccountable monarch.”

Obama Is Not a Monarch
The president cannot act alone; the Constitution requires compromise.
