Former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg said Friday that a Republican Party that ignores the nation's Hispanics and balks at immigration overhaul does so at its political peril as Republicans pressured the House GOP to act this year.
"If you are against the fastest-growing voting bloc in the country, you and your party don't have a future," Bloomberg said flatly at a forum on immigration with Michigan Republican Gov. Rick Snyder and former Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez, who served in President George W. Bush's administration.
National Republicans insist that the party must pass reforms and address the issue of the 11 million immigrants living in the United States illegally to be competitive in presidential elections. In 2012, Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, who suggested that immigrants "self-deport," won just 27 percent of the Hispanic vote.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and other GOP leaders are working on a set of principles on immigration that they expect to present to the Republican caucus next week at its annual retreat.

No, having the mob dump Bloomberg’s lifeless corpse into Long Island Sound is key to the GOP’s future.
Eschewing that lib/progressive Nanny Bloomy is the only (political) salvation.
I think they can stop now ,the Republican Party is already brain washed into Immigration Reform
To many Democrats in the Republican party these days.
“If you are against the fastest-growing voting bloc in the country, you and your party don’t have a future,”
I love lines like this. Makes people who are against some form of “amnesty” to look like bigots, when all we want is to have the laws of this country enforced.
Also, the “fastest-growing voting bloc” ain’t votin’ for Republicans anyway.
Bloomberg: Cut off your wanker and you can still try to have babies
FROM THE DESK OF ADOLF HITLER:
TO: Franklin Delanor Roosevelt.
Dear President Roosevelt,
It has come to my attention that you plan to invade France, with other countries assisting. This concerns me, I do not want to see your soldiers in any peril. Perhaps you could invade by coming through Alaska, then Russia? It is a safer journey, and my countries forces are much weaker there.
Kindest Regards,
Adolf
P.S. My scientists tell me that the A-bomb technology you are working on, does not work. In the desire to save you money, I advise you stop that wasteful Manhattan Project.
I thought Repubs were his party also? He's not talking like a Republican.
I think he just accidentally told the truth for once.
Bloomingidiot is the gift that just keeps on giving.
Ofcourse a leftwing Democrat wants the GOP to implode by advocating amnesty.
Did the majority of Hispanics and blacks vote for Bloomberg?
Id guess he got a supermajority of the white vote.
Haaaa, “Blooomers” giving the GOP advice? Sure!!
The fastest growing voting block is illegal aliens?
Goodbye America.
All the GOP has to do to lose the House is to alienate the conservative base.
If it wants amnesty, it should not count on my vote in November.
Hope Pedro will vote for them, cause I sure won’t.
If the GOP looks to Bloombutt as its prognosticator of destiny, it is doomed.
