BALDWIN: Immigration debate is about to play a bigger role in the 2016 campaign. Today, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to take up a challenge from 26 states to immigration reforms that President Obama ordered a year ago. The actions sought to spare the undocumented parents of children born in the United States from deportation. So joining me now our justice correspondent, Pamela Brown. So let's begin with what are these state challenges based upon, Pam. PAMELA BROWN, CNN JUSTICE CORRESPONDENT; You may remember that Texas and 25 other states immediately challenged this saying the president's actions on immigration went outside his scope of executive power and causes an undo burden on them. The lower court sided with them saying the program preventing these 4.3 million people from being deported likely violates the law. As of today, Brooke, the Supreme Court is weighing in saying it will take up the case, and not only that it's adding the question of whether the president's action was within his scope of executive authority under the Constitution. Some legal experts we spoke with said the courts opinion could go further than immigration, Brooke, by redefining the balance of power between Congress and the president. The stakes are very high, not only for those millions of undocumented immigrants who could be impacted by this.</s>BALDWIN: Pamela Brown, thank you, in Washington for us.
