Gov. Bobby Jindal tells Breitbart News that President Barack Obama’s planned executive amnesty for those living in the country illegally is “absurd.”

“You’ve got a President who refuses to follow the law, refuses to follow the Constitution,” Jindal tells the conservative news website in an exclusive interview that was conducted earlier this week when the governor and other Louisiana republicans held a rally in downtown Baton Rouge. “He himself said his policies were on the ballot. The American people said loudly and clearly on election night that they were rejecting his policies.”

Jindal says that Republicans in the new incoming Senate GOP majority and the emboldened House GOP majority should exercise every power they have to stop Obama’s executive immigration plans.

“This would be an absurd travesty of our laws,” Jindal says. “Look, it’s not complicated. Secure the border. We don’t need this thousand-page bill. We don’t need this comprehensive bill from the Senate. Just secure the border, and let’s make the President actually obey the Constitution and obey the law.” Read the full story.
