Valerie Jarrett: 'We Have a Commitment' from Boehner on Amnesty This Year
Breitbart News ^ | 5-15-14 | Tony Lee

President Barack Obama's top adviser and confidant told a group of global elites on Thursday in Las Vegas, Nevada that House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) has made a commitment to the White House to try to pass amnesty legislation this year.

After hailing the Senate's amnesty bill that the Congressional Budget Office determined would lower the wages of American workers, Valerie Jarrett, Obama's senior advisor, told attendees at the yearly invitation-only SkyBridge Alternatives Conference that Boehner would help the White House make a push get immigration reform enacted in the next three months.

“I think we have a window this summer, between now and August, to get something done,” Jarrett said, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal. “We have a commitment from Speaker Boehner, who’s very frustrated with his caucus."

Addressing attendees at an event described as conference where "investors and elite political donors" along with "hedge fund managers, political and business leaders and celebrities" can "speak freely," Jarrett said that the Senate's bill would pass in the House if Republicans brought it to the floor.

Normally I would not believe squat from Jarret. But I completely believe this. Because Bhoner gave me reason.

I believe that saint Boner will indeed attempt to make illegals citizens. I do not think he cares about anything else.

I wish the GOP boys and girls would ask themselves why the communist DemocRATS want “amnesty” passed so bad. The answer is simple.

Sure be nice if the Repub Base had a Party...instead be its current Homeless situation.

Boner & McSurrender must have/be expecting generous secret bank accounts.

Just goes to prove what I already suspected.

Boehner works for Valerie Jarrett.

“We have a commitment from Speaker Boehner, who’s very frustrated with his caucus.”

Frustrated because the pubbie caucus is Boehner’s opposition.

Boner is frustrated. “I’m sorry, Val. I can’t get them to do what I tell them to do. Please, don’t ruin my life with your NSA information. Can’t you destroy those mean old conservatives for me?”
