What can we do about the bill that was illegally passed last night by the House of Representatives?

Question

Is there any way we as a people can do anything legally to stop this bill from becomming a law? What are our options if any? I am beyond PISSED OFF at the House & the Senate!

The bill I am refering to is the one that would give benfits to illegal immigrants and they would also have the right to work. I am not sure of the name of the bill.

Answer 1

coragryph is total correct on this. It IS possible for Congress to pass a law that violates the Constitution. Such a law would be unconstitutional, but not illegally passed. Article 1, section 8 of the Constitution allows Congress "To establish a uniform rule of naturalization ... throughout the United States. As such, any benefits they grant to illegal aliens are only unconstitutional to the extent that granting the same benefits to US citizens would be unconstitutional.

Note: I agree with the position I think you hold about the law itself. This answer is intended to address the issue of what is and is not legal and/or constitutional.

Answer 2

we've the terrific medical doctors, hospitals and nurses in the entire international. the priority is the valueless coverage companies and their greed. the comparable is actual with domicile coverage. The coverage companies that are owned by means of the banks basically choose great earnings and that they are going to decrease reward to guarantee great earnings. case in point "diabetes" in healthcare has obstacles and a few won't even insure. For domicile coverage, they gained't disguise "wind blown rain" injury and maximum water injury is wind blown rain from hurricanes in the South. If there are a number of claims on one given "reason" earlier long the coverage companies will decrease reward or not insure or have a keeping era. i won't forget approximately our government saying "pass to Disneyland," after 9/11. and that i won't forget approximately our government saying "that extensive bonuses could desire to be paid to get the very terrific CEOs" while the CEOs only failed miserably at their jobs.

Answer 3

A bill cannot be illegally passed.... that's a non-statement.

A bill may be voted on by both Houses, and if passed by both Houses, it is then sent to the president for signature or veto. See Article I and II of the Constitution.

It's not a law until its either signed by the president, or until both chamber pass it by and override 2/3 vote.

And no, there is nothing people can do to stop any bill that is passed by both chambers and signed by the president from becoming law --- that's why we are only a democratic republic, and not a pure democracy.

Answer 4

I know the bill you are talking about, I saw it on the news, they switched the totals(democrats so they can look like heroes for the illegals). I am not sure what can be done BUT I will get you a star and look forward to the answers you get.

Answer 5

What bill are you talking about?

Listen, I wasn't trying to be smart, I was just wondering which bill so I could look at it closer because this is the first I heard about it!

If this happened, it has sealed the fate for these traitors in congress. As far as I am concerned Pelosi can "F" herself.

Here is an article to what you were referring to...at least I hope this is it!:

Answer 6

The president will veto it.
Hes vetoing everything now.
Kids health bill, hes talking veto.
Let them eat cake....ummm, sorry let them go to the emergency room.

Answer 7

The repubs are out in force on this one. Dem's declared a victory on this one when it wasn't. Repubs are fighting mad. Send all emails and complaints to them.

Answer 8

There was a problem with the electronic voting system.

It could always go to the Supreme Court, like Bush vs. Gore. Wouldn't it be ironic if the Court upheld the vote?

Answer 9

It is time to start calling, faxing, and emailing again. Make noise
