as well as doing what is right finally. Unfortunately Executive Orders last only as long as the current President is in office unless the next President doesn't rescind them. If the next President is a republican this Executive Order will be rescinded almost immediately there is no doubt. It's up to the voters whether they want a Democratic Congress or a republican one. A Democratic Congress will pass an Immigration Reform bill, a republican one won't.
