I believe they are telling him to enforce our current laws. I believe the country is getting solidily behind that idea.
Yes they are telling the President to take executive action. I guess that so they can sue or impeach him later. Here is what McMorris-Rodgers said-
"This situation shows the intense concern within our conference -- and among the American people -- about the need to ensure the security of our borders and the president's refusal to faithfully execute our laws," they said. "There are numerous steps the president can and should be taking right now, without the need for congressional action, to secure our borders and ensure these children are returned swiftly and safely to their countries."
Pretty sure whatever the President does Republican will be complaining long and loud...could be the new Benghazi.
Bahahaha the GOP leadership is an embarrassment. They let Ted Cruz bring them to their knees. Oh and this :
"In a joint statement, GOP leaders said they would continue to work towards a solution and put the onus on President Obama to act on his own.
"There are numerous steps the president can and should be taking right now, without the need for congressional action, to secure our borders and ensure these children are returned swiftly and safely to their countries," read the statement."
So they sued the president for taking action and now they want him to take more executive action. You just can't make this up. Someone throw Boehner's weak a** out. The Tea Party run the house.
The conservative party at the federal level is post policy. They are no longer interested in governing.
I mean, what they are doing is nothing. conservatives are not interested in enacting a policy agenda that can compromise with the Democrats.
This lack of passing legislation is truly unprecedented in the modern era of American politics and maybe historically unprecedented.
conservatives can't even bother to create public policy to address a problem they were wailing about.
Where is the credibility? How can the media or intelligent people allow conservatives to wail about the border when they have zero solutions, no policy agenda to address the problem.
Then when President Obama has to act because conservatives won't allow the legislative branch to act, they'll yell about a lawless president.
Yes, they want Obama to act alone, so they can accuse him of acting alone. It's quite a circus, and I can tell you it makes no difference if they are there or no, because nothing gets done either way. They are taking 5 weeks off, and I'll bet no one will notice.
They want him to act alone because that is his job. The executive branch is in charge of carrying out our laws. (As written and passed).

How did you miss "refusal to faithfully execute our laws"?
Absolutely no one is stopping him from doing that.
On the Border Issue, it seems like the Rs have taken their thumbs out of their butts, and are meeting right now to see if they can insert their other thumb...

It was his actions that brought them here. He caused the problem; it is his job to fix it. The law suit is about Obamacare. Let's get our facts straight, please!
I would think the Dems should be happy over this.
Now Obama can do what he wants.
Not as long as we have courts.
