Committee report

Congressional Budget Office cost estimate

  1. Jul 5, 2012H.R. 357, a bill for the relief of Corina de Chalup TurcinovicThe Congressional Budget Office has reviewed the following legislation ordered reported by the House Committee on the Judiciary on June 28, 2012:

Constitutional authority

Congress has the power to enact this legislation pursuant to the following: Article I, Section 8, Clause 4 of the Constitution provides that Congress shall have power to ``establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization''. The Supreme Court has long found that this provision of the Constitution grants Congress plenary power over immigration policy. As the Court found in Galvan v. Press, 347 U.S. 522, 531 (1954), ``that the formulation of policies [pertaining to the entry of aliens and their right to remain here] is entrusted exclusively to Congress has become about as firmly imbedded in the legislative and judicial tissues of our body politic as any aspect of our government.'' And, as the Court found in Kleindienst v. Mandel, 408 U.S. 753, 766 (1972) (quoting Boutilier v. INS, 387 U.S. 118, 123 (1967)), ``[t]he Court without exception has sustained Congress' `plenary power to make rules for the admission of aliens and to exclude those who possess those characteristics which Congress has forbidden.'
