Attorney General Todd Rokita leads 18-state lawsuit challenging unlawful open-borders policies

Attorney General Todd Rokita 

Attorney General Todd Rokita is leading an 18-state lawsuit challenging the Biden administration’s proposed new “Circumvention of Lawful Pathways” rule — a policy debacle that continues the federal government’s recent reckless and unlawful coddling of illegal immigrants.

“In a truly Orwellian twist, the federal government has depicted this latest measure as a tool for reducing illegal immigration,” Attorney General Rokita said. “As a matter of fact, this new rule would make it even easier to illegally immigrate into the United States — and everyday Hoosiers right here in Indiana would pay the price. I’m grateful to the other states that have joined our lawsuit to stop this egregious violation of existing U.S. law.”

Federal bureaucrats rolled out the proposed new rule due to the expiration of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC’s) Title 42 public health order, which gave authorities greater ability to bar illegal immigrants from crossing the border during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The new rule, however, essentially tries to define the problem away by re-characterizing border crossings as “lawful pathways” that previously would have been illegal. more

  2. The new rule, however, essentially tries to define the problem away by re-characterizing border crossings as “lawful pathways” that previously would have been illegal.

    This suggests that for feddle lawyers and bureaucrats who dream up such preposterous ideas, lawful cosmetic surgery can include decapitation.

  3. Maine won’t do it.
    Our Guv and Legislature are as left as you can get and the minority Repubs are spineless for the most part.
    The result of years of spineless GOP Chairs.
    Now General Mills is using Covid money to invite illegals from all over the country to get 2 yrs free at any community college in the state.

  4. “NO STANDING” GWB’s puppet John.

    They are “virtue signaling”!
    Bush knows what he was doing 17 years ago. George may unscrupulous; but unlike Jeb HE IS NOT DUMB!

  5. Invoke the 10th.
    Each of those 18 states should then send troops to the borders.
    Round up any and all illegal alien-invaders in country and deport them.
    Close the borders using deadly force, if necessary.
    Build a “cordon sanitaire” as the frogs call it.

    When the FedGov fails to uphold the law – it is incumbent upon the States to do so.
    And our FedGov is now so corrupt that the several States must take the lead.
    To do any less is treason through omission.
