I don't think he can suspend payroll taxes either (he could probably stop enforcing any punishment for nonpayment, but without Congress those taxes should still be owed). Well, this is why it's concerning. If he just does it and dares Congress to sue him...... this is how executives gain power. And of course, there is already precedent set by DACA that the President can do whatever he wants in the guise of regulating enforcement of the laws. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! <cite>red sox 777 posted [p:943118840] in Politics C...
