Examples of enacted in a Sentence

  1. Tom Jawetz:

    When Congress in 1996 enacted sweeping immigration enforcement legislation — putting in place the expedited removal system that today allows Border Patrol agents to quickly deport people Border Patrol agents apprehend without any court process — it specifically created the credible fear process to preserve the right of people to seek asylum when they are apprehended between the ports of entry, congress did that knowing that if it circumscribed the right to seek protection, then it would run afoul of our obligations under Tom Jawetz and international law to not return people to face persecution abroad. The interim final rule issued today acknowledges this history even as it attempts to undo it entirely.

  2. Lee Gelernt:

    The court recognized, as it did with the first asylum ban, that the Donald Trump administration was attempting an unlawful end run around asylum protections enacted by Congress.

  3. White House:

    Our approach to addressing the current rise in violent crime is comprehensive – adequately fund law enforcement, build upon the smart-on crime reforms enacted during the Trump Administration, and forge partnerships between communities and law enforcement like we’ve seen in Dallas.

  4. Greg Abbott:

    While President Biden refuses to do his job and enforce the immigration laws enacted by Congress, the State of Texas is once again stepping up and taking unprecedented actionto protect Americans andsecure our southern border.

  5. Susan Collins:

    I can't speak for my colleagues. But I certainly am committed to keeping the legislative filibuster in place, and I think most Republicans are, i'll give you a good example of that. President Trump repeatedly called upon the Republican Senate to do away with the filibuster, because he was frustrated that his complete agenda was not getting enacted and the process was slow.
