GOP unveils plan to block Obama's executive overreach
(Worthy News) - House Republicans on Thursday unveiled a proposal that they believe will put the brakes on executive branch overreach and restore the power of Congress to write laws.
"We can't rely on the courts alone to protect our rights," said House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis. "If you have to file a lawsuit, you've already been violated. That is why we need the other branches, especially the legislative branch, to remain strong, so they can defend our rights when another branch attacks them."
Republicans devised the plan, part of its six-part national agenda, in reaction to rules and regulations put forward by the Obama administration that they say are burdensome and aimed at circumventing Congress. [ Source ]

Is it me or is this proposal really come at the end of the game? Where was this YEARS ago? Agree or Disagree?
The proverbial cow is out of the barn.
I don't think the head cheese, McConnell is working with his fellow Republicans. To decide on a vote for Obama's new gun law plans is another slap in American's faces. It is past time our Congress vote against Obama's gun law bill that will be the death to our Second Amendment and all of our Constitution and Bill Of Rights. McConnell needs to be removed NOW!!!!

More song and dance from the GOP.
Well said, Deanna.
These actions should have been done years ago. I don't believe either the Demo's or the Repo's. Now, this late in the Anti-Christ's second term, they're just trying to save face. But they've got no reputation left to save.
