WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The head of the biggest U.S. business group, a traditional ally of Republicans, said on Thursday that he remains confident that the top Republican in Congress will push to enact comprehensive immigration reform.
U.S. Chamber of Commerce President Thomas Donohue said he is not worried about House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner's refusal to negotiate with the Senate on its sweeping bipartisan bill.
Donohue said he supports Boehner's decision to instead take a step-by-step approach with smaller measures to fix the nation's broken immigration system.
"I believe it will get done," Donohue said at a news conference attended by business, religious and law enforcement leaders, all of whom echoed his determination and optimism.

It's the governmental equivalent of built-in obsolescence. On immigration, both parties are in on it.
That is so true. Also the “but they work so hard” will be a long-gone mantra. And the business leaders won’t be their leaders; there will emerge Hispanic Jesse Jacksons and worse.
Yep.
The Republican party in large part, is every bit as bad as the Democrat party on matters of international trade.
Every bit as bad.
I agree 100% with the GOP on some things, but global trade is a huge, huge fiasco.
Bring back US companies, working in America.
Return American businesses. Bring back American jobs.
Now.
“.........he supports Boehner’s decision to instead take a step-by-step approach with smaller measures to fix the nation’s broken immigration system.”
Carefully worded to avoid the chance anybody might suspect the One Worlder’s in our government are deliberately NOT enforcing existing law that has worked just fine for most of this Nations existence.
Genius-boy Donohue didn’t happen to mention what those actual small steps might be did he? It’s always instructive when the face-boys just can’t get around to saying anything specific. Like, oh, say the hope and change Kenyan. We need an interactive gong system so these blowhards can be gonged off the screen whenever they don’t say anything meaningful. My TIVO gongs just fine but but there needs to be a lightning bolt zapping the other end.
“Let’s boil the frog slowly instead”
A government by lobbyists, for lobbyists and of lobbyists.
“It’s basically the business sectors of agriculture and construction.”
Those jobs can’t be off-shored so the “open borders lobby” needs to drive wages down further by importing another cheap labor underclass to be subsidized by the American taxpayers.
Limbaugh had a caller say that the illegals he knows are worried that theyll have to pay taxes and that the amnesty bill will create a new wave of illegals undercutting the current illegals.
