Obama Threatens to Veto “The Faithful Execution of the Law Act”
President Obama brings new meaning to the word lawless.
Back in January of this year, and a day after President Obama’s State of the Union address, the Shark Tank reported that Republican Congressman Ron DeSantis (FL) filed the Faithful Execution of the Law Act in the U.S. House of Representatives, which was just voted on, and passed.
DeSantis’ bill requires Attorney General Eric Holder to report to Congress, when the Department of Justice stops enforcing a law on the grounds that is it unconstitutional.
The bill requires all federal officials who stop enforcing a law to report to Congress the reason for the non-enforcement whether it is being done on constitutional or policy grounds.
Currently, when the Department of Justice stops enforcing a law on the grounds that it is unconstitutional, the United States Attorney General is required to report to Congress. The Faithful Execution of the Law Act strengthens this provision by requiring all federal officials who stop enforcing a law to report to Congress the reason for the non-enforcement, regardless of whether it is being done on constitutional or policy grounds.
“President Obama has not only failed to uphold several of our nation’s laws, he has vowed to continue to do so in order to enact his unpopular agenda,” DeSantis said.
“The President assured the public that his administration would be the most transparent in history, and while the President has fallen woefully short on this promise, my bill will be a step in the right direction. The American people deserve to know exactly which laws the Obama Administration is refusing to enforce and why.”-Rep. Ron DeSantis
Expect this bill to get nowhere in the Democrat-controlled Senate, but if it did find a way of getting to the President’s desk, Obama would surely veto it.
Appearing on Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren show, DeSantis reiterated the intentions of his bill, and laid on some thick criticism of the Obama’s not-so-transparent administration.
What does the White House say about DeSantis’ bill?
“The vastly expanded reporting scheme required by the bill would be unduly burdensome and would place the Attorney General in the unprecedented position of having to be kept informed of and report on enforcement decisions made by every other Federal agency,” the statement said.
“If the President were presented with H.R. 3973, his senior advisers would recommend that he veto the bill.”-The White House
