The lawsuit filed by 26 states against President Obama’s Expanded DACA and DAPA immigration reform programs has been officially scheduled before the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans, Louisiana.  The 5th Circuit will hear arguments from both sides on April 17, 2015 to decide whether the temporary hold on President Barack Obama’s immigration executive action should be lifted.  The Department of Justice, who is defending the President’s Immigration programs, argues that the hold on Expanded DACA and DAPA interferes with the Department of Homeland Security’s ability to keep our borders secure.  In contrast, the 26 states, led by Texas, argue that the President’s implementation of executive action was unconstitutional.
