WCHE NEWS - A federal judge in Pittsburgh is declaring that President Barack Obamas recent executive actions on immigration are unconstitutional. Radio PAs David Payne reports U.S. District Judge Arthur Schwab says the President’s order designed to spare millions living illegally in the United States from deportation announced a “unilateral legislative action in violation of the Constitution.” Schwab issued his opinion in a criminal case involving an immigrant from Honduras. The Obama administration has said the new policy does not apply to criminal cases. Schwab’s opinion puts forth some of the same arguments made by Texas and 23 other states in their challenge to the President’s actions on immigration.
