“For all his bluster, President Trump has underestimated the strength and the will of the American people,” said in the weekly Democratic address Friday.

“The actions he’s taken have made our country less safe and have hurt our standing in the world,” the House Democratic Caucus chairman added. "But they’re also not a reflection of who are as a country.”

Crowley cited Trump’s executive order on immigration and refugees as example of the president’s overreach.

“In attacking our Constitution, the fundamental tenets of our democracy and who we are as a people, President Trump has dismissed everything we stand for, everything our ancestors fought for,” he said.

“What’s American is people welcoming refugees and families at arrival gates,” Crowley added. "It’s lawyers upholding the Constitution from an airport floor and a laptop.”

“It’s young people discovering the need for civic engagement. And children learning no matter who you are, or where you came from, or what you believe, you are welcome here.”

Crowley added Americans would continue holding Trump and his administration accountable for remainder of his term.

“We will resist on behalf of what is American,” he said. "And we will resist on behalf of immigrants who came here in the past, and who will come here in the future. This is about our people – and making our voices heard. And let me tell you: It’s working. And I know this is a fight we will win.”

Trump on Friday said he is considering a “brand new order” on immigration and refugees following a legal setback to his original version the night before.

An appeals court on Thursday issued a unanimous ruling rejecting the Trump administration’s request to resume implementing his temporary ban on visitors from seven Muslim-majority nations.

Trump’s controversial executive order imposed a 90-day ban on travelers from Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen.

The measure also froze general refugee admissions into the U.S. for 120 days, indefinitely pausing the resettlement of Syrian refugees.
