As Surpreme Court weighs immigration, rallies held in San Bernardino and DTLA
(FOX 11) - "Supreme Court, no amnesty," chanted a group of demonstrators at San Bernardino's City Hall on Monday.
The group is calling on the Supreme Court to rule against Obama's executive action on amnesty for millions of undocumented families.

The protestors held signs and banners, which read the names of all 26 states challenging the president's programs.
If the programs go into effect, 4 million people would be eligible to work in the U.S. without fear of deportation.
