Regardless, the authority being granted in the proposed bill was a new authority - not one that the President already had. That this new authority was conditioned did not mean that there was a restriction being imposed on the President.

And yet, as it turned out...was unnecessary. The assumption was during the debate at the time was there wasn't a good way to shut things down and drive illegal border crossings to zero. That assumption has since been shown to be false, as evidenced by the number of crossings being down >95% in just 8 weeks.

Now we can move on to other things, namely, shoring up the border barriers and expediting deporting people who don't need to be here. If that means

-More deportation judges
-Bigger detention centers
-More ICE agents

...then that's the direction we should do.
