Congressman: Bypass Obama On Border Crisis
‘It’s time that we start to work with the states’

Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., says Republicans in Congress are ready to start acting in response to what they consider to be President Obama’s refusal to honor the rule of law and defend the nation’s borders.
Gosar said the upcoming actions include tightening funding to the relevant federal agencies accused of not doing their jobs, enforcing strict constraints on who is allowed to stay in this country after coming illegally and bypassing the president to work with states to restore security to the U.S.-Mexico border.
The first tool the GOP plans to employ is the power of the purse, which does not require approval from the Senate or the president.
“September is the largest spending month in federal workforce calendars,” Gosar said. “So why don’t we re-prioritize these aspects within the IRS, which has hardly been a stalwart aspect of upholding the Constitution? How about the Department of Justice? How about the executive branch? I think all these can suffer a little bit in regard to bringing that money forward so that the American taxpayer doesn’t have to be impugned by additional finances.”

outstanding idea, do they have the balls to do it?
Here is an idea? Expose the fraud?
Why don’t they wait until it gets serious.
This is the way it should have alway been managed…….Fund the Border and Coastal states if truly committed against illegal immigration.
