House GOP Leaders Trick 216 House Republicans into Accidentally Supporting Obama's Executive AmnestyGohmert said most members had no idea what they were actually voting for when 219 members—216 of which were Republicans—approved a measure, H.R. 5759, first put forward by Rep. Ted Yoho (R-FL), but subsequently dramatically altered by leadership officials in the Rules Committee process.“I was a cosponsor of the original Yoho bill. I thought it was a very decent bill, it was very short—it was only about a page and a half—and it basically said that anything the president did in violation of current law including what he’s done with ordering work permits for people who are illegally here, it’s illegal,†Gohmert said. “They added another section called ‘exceptions.’ And the exceptions part says this ‘shall apply except’ and then there’s three parts,†Gohmert said while reading the actual text of the bill on the phone with Breitbart News. The third one is "for humanitarian purposes where the aliens are at imminent risk of serious bodily harm or death." That’s what they added. Well, this president has been arguing for months that the things he’s doing is because these people are at imminent risk of serious bodily harm and that’s why he’s doing them. So actually by adding this exception it gives the president for the first time a solid statutory basis to argue that providing those work permits is now legal.Gohmert said that this addition gives President Obama a foot in the door for a legal argument justifying executive amnesty.
Doesn't anyone read what they are voting on? Don't they have staff that does that? Guess we're going to have to start melting down phone lines.http://www.house.gov/representatives/
