Texas's Radical Argument on Work Authorization - Prof. Martin Lederman

Prof. Martin Lederman, Apr. 20, 2016 - "Texas and the House of Representatives tried at oral argument to suggest that DAPA work authorization would be different in kind from past work authorizations.  They have failed to explain, however, why many of those authorizations, such as for the millions of aliens who have applied for adjustment of status, would be permissible under their reading of IRCA, which purports to turn on whether Congress has specifically identified the class of aliens in question as eligible for work authorization."
