Congressman Gowdy: ‘If a president can change some laws, can he change all laws?’ Gets a Standing Ovation

On Wednesday Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC), sponsor of the “Enforce the Law Act,” gave a rousing floor speech defending his legislation that would force President Obama to enforce every the law passed by Congress. Five Democrats joined the Republican majority to pass the “Enforce the Law Act.”

The law is designed to enable the House or Senate to sue the executive branch for not enforcing laws. During his speech, Rep. Gowdy received a standing Ovation on the House floor.

Here is Congressman Gowdy explaining how his bill would work.
