Republican House members will be allowed to directly address the Supreme Court to voice their opposition to the President Obama's executive actions on immigration when the case is heard later this month.

Based a formal ruling recently announced by the high court, GOP members will be allotted 15 minutes to state their chases before the eight justices during the oral argument phase of the proceedings. In all, oral arguments are expected to run roughly 90 minutes.

"We are pleased the Supreme Court has agreed that the House of Representatives should be able to weigh in on this important question of whether the president failed in his constitutional duty to execute the law as written by Congress," said AshLee Strong, a spokeswoman for Republican Majority Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.).

Immigration one of the Most Significant Issues Before Court This Season

The issue of immigration will easily be one of the most germane and dissected cases taken up by the now eight-member Supreme Court this season. The outcome will determine if the President's much debated decision to grant work permits to more than 4 million immigrants in the United States illegally will be revived. A federal injunction has put the programs on hold for more than a year.

Just last month, the GOP-controlled House voted largely along partisan lines to submit what's known as an amicus brief on behalf of Texas and more than two dozen other states that have sued to halt the programs.

The brief stipulates that the Obama administration overextended its legal authority by enacting the Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (DACA) program which has sought to permanently grant the aforementioned rights to immigrants.

"The Executive may disagree with the laws Congress enacts and may try to persuade Congress to change them," the brief states. "But neither any immigration law now on the books nor the Constitution empowers the Executive to authorize - let alone facilitate - the prospective violation of those laws on a massive class-wide scale."

Meanwhile, a group of as many as 50 pro-immigration groups recently sought to pressure Republican legislators to reject Ryan's plan to file the brief.

"Those executive actions represent the dreams and aspirations of millions of children, parents and families who have built lives here, who contribute to our economy and our communities and who believe in the promise of America," read the letter sent to Ryan.

The letter was signed by such groups as Unite Here!, United Food and Commercial Workers, Voto Latino and the Service Employees International Union.
