Collins Statement on Supreme Court's DACA Ruling

Statement

Date: June 18, 2020
Location: Atlanta, GA

Rep. Doug Collins (R-Ga.) released the following statement after the U.S. Supreme Court ruling on DACA:

"By ruling that President Obama can usurp the legislative branch's authority to unilaterally create law but President Trump can't undo his unconstitutional actions, the Court is setting a dangerous precedent and a double standard that should concern every American. President Obama said himself that his decision to disregard the law and circumvent the legislative process went far beyond his constitutional power, and it's disturbing that the Supreme Court chose to uphold his unlawful move.

"Let me remind the Supreme Court: it is ultimately the role of Congress -- and Congress alone -- to pass much-needed immigration reform. After its second power grab this week, it's clear that Congress needs to step up and take back its constitutionally granted authority to do its job."
