U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) issued the following statement after Senate Democrats, some of whom criticized President Obama's unilateral changes to immigration policy last fall, voted for those policies today:
"It's unfortunate that Senate Democrats, many of whom talked tough last fall, voted to side with their party leadership instead of the American people who overwhelmingly oppose the President's unconstitutional executive actions that have been blocked by a Federal District Court.
"We will continue to fight to stop the President's illegal, unilateral changes to immigration policy, standing with the American people and fighting for the Rule of Law in the face of the President's lawlessness."
