FreedomWorks Statement on Supreme Court Ruling in United States v. Texas

Following the deadlock at the Supreme Court in United States v. Texas, which upholds a lower court ruling striking down President Barack Obama’s unconstitutional power grab, FreedomWorks CEO Adam Brandon commented:

“This is a great victory for the Constitution. There are three branches of government, and each of them was intended to have equal power. There is no special clause that grants a president power when he can’t get his way. While today’s ruling is welcome news, Congress still has a long way to go before it restores the constitutional separation of powers and ends the imperial presidency.”
