Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) has filed a bill seeking to repeal President Obamas executive order that delays deportation of five million immigrants, the Courier Journal reported Saturday.

Pauls bill, Preventing Executive Overreach on Immigration Act, is companion legislation to a House bill passed last week from Rep. Ted Yoho (R-Fla.)

The Kentucky Republicans proposal, posted on his website Friday, prohibits the president from using discretion when determining who to deport.

I believe that the Constitution is clear that the legislative power resides in Congress, Paul said in a statement. The President is not a king and he does not have the power to enact laws then execute his own laws. Our Constitution is being violated by this executive order and other actions by the Obama Administration to govern by executive fiat.
