Hey Americans! Quick, hurry up to stop this crazy "Real ID Act". It is a bill that would allow the Secretary of Homeland Security to break any law he or she sees fit to break, as long as she or he is working to keep Mexicans out. Specifically, Section 102(c) of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 would read:

“(c) Waiver. —It got voted for by Congress and will move from there to the Senate! You have to do something!
(1) In general. — Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Secretary of Homeland Security shall have the authority to waive, and shall waive, all laws such Secretary, in such Secretary’s sole discretion, determines necessary to ensure expeditious construction of the barriers and roads under this section.
(2) No judicial review. — Notwithstanding any other provision of law (statutory or nonstatutory), no court shall have jurisdiction —
- (A) to hear any cause or claim arising from any action undertaken, or any decision made, by the Secretary of Homeland Security pursuant to paragraph (1); or
- (B) to order compensatory, declaratory, injunctive, equitable, or any other relief for damage alleged to arise from any such action or decision.”
