Morphine Prince 109,655 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court blocked President Obama's effort to protect more than 4 million undocumented immigrants from the threat of deportation Thursday, deadlocking 4-4 over a plan that had divided the nation as well as the justices. The tie vote leaves intact a preliminary injunction that stopped the program in its tracks more than a year ago, after Texas and 25 other states claimed Obama lacked the authority to go around Congress. While the case now will return to Texas for further review, it's unlikely the lower federal courts that blocked the program temporarily will reverse themselves. In practical terms, then, the 4-4 vote dooms for the remainder of Obama's presidency his effort to protect more than 4 million undocumented parents from deportation. The justices likely split along ideological lines, though the vote count was not revealed; the ruling carries no national precedent.

Actually, this further highlights the need for our gov. to overhaul the immigration system. The sheer volume of illegal immigrants is the problem not that they want to come here. The documentation and legalization of new citizens needs to be overhauled to accommodate those who wish to become Americans. If your not here to become part of the US...then by all means deportation is justified. like a cat in a sil, I observe life, moving and still.
