House GOP panel Defunding immigration order impossible TheHill

It would be “impossible" to defund President Obama’s executive actions on immigration through a government spending bill, the House Appropriations Committee said Thursday.
In a statement released by Committee Chairman Hal Rogers's (R-Ky.) office hours before Obama's scheduled national address, the committee said the primary agency responsible for implementing Obama's actions is funded entirely by user fees.
As a result, the committee said the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS) agency would be able to continue to collect fees and carry out its operations even if the government shut down.
We cannot, literally cannot, defund that agency in an appropriations bill because we don’t appropriate that agency. That agency is entirely fee-funded,” spokeswoman Jennifer Hing said.
“As of right now, our understanding is the primary agency responsible for implementing any type of executive order is CIS and we don’t fund CIS. There are no appropriated dollars,” she added.
 
Obutthurt is a socialist pos like the libtards on here. He knows this is wrong for America and will do it regardless.
 
How would you defund a deferred deportation, exactly?
 
Obama won't deport these illegals so we are going to defund the Border Patrol. That will show him! MWA-HA-HA-HAAAAAAA!

Oh, wait...

Obama will be doing LESS enforcement. If anything he is saving money. How do you defund that?

what i've read says enforcement efforts will shift - away from stable immigrants with families and focus efforts instead on dangerous criminals like drug runners and human smugglers.

Ask them. I merely read in the link posted that they disagree. Of course that was omitted by the partisan hack that posted it.

Yeah well they aren't doing that now and I'd bet money that they won't do it after Obama has his hissy fit.
 
Defunding the bill is impossible because it isn't a bill?

Defunding the "not doing" of something? How does that work?

Nobody said it was a bill did they? The Congress pays for the functions of government through appropriations. Because they very seldom pass a budget, they continue paying for programs with a continuing resolution. Maybe the Republicans can actually pass a budget this coming year, but that remains to be seen.
 
The blonde on Fox just said Obabbles action is about to change the social landscape of America forever. What exactly is going to happen? More Taco Bells? More Chipoltes for the health conscious illegal? More shoddy foundations in San Antonio houses?

My opinion is this whole episode is a waste of space. We have had decades of stupid pols unable to fix a simple management problem. Fuck them all.

this is great the repubs will now forever lose the Latino vote as most latino citizens in this country support it

A solid majority (66%) of Hispanic voters believe passing new immigration legislation soon is extremely important or very important according to the new survey. This is up six percentage points from 2013, when 60% of Latino registered voters said it was extremely important or very important to pass significant new immigration legislation in 2013 (Lopez et al., 2013).
