Senate Democrats on Obama’s EO

Even Democrats are running away from Barack Obama’s immigration action:

SEN. JOE MANCHIN (D-WV): “I wish he wouldn’t do it.”
SEN. CLAIRE McCASKILL (D-MO): “I have to be honest, how this is coming about makes me uncomfortable, I think it probably makes most Missourians uncomfortable.”
SEN. JOE DONNELLY (D-IN): “I am as frustrated as anyone that Congress is not doing its job, but the president shouldn’t make such significant policy changes on his own.”
SEN. HEIDI HEITKAMP (D-ND): “I’m disappointed the president decided to use executive action at this time on this issue, as it could poison any hope of compromise or bipartisanship in the new Senate before it has even started.”
SEN. AL FRANKEN (D-MN): “I have concerns about executive action.”
SEN. ANGUS KING (I-ME): “And I also frankly am concerned about the constitutional separation of powers. … The Framers knew what they were doing and it doesn’t say if the president gets frustrated and Congress doesn’t act, he gets to do, you know, what he thinks is important for the country.”
SEN. JON TESTER (D-MT): “I would prefer that Congress act.”
SEN. TOM CARPER (D-DE): “If I were the president, what I’d say to the Congress – House, Senate, Democrat or Republican – I’m going to give you a little bit of time and in the new Congress expect you to do something.”
