"Advocates for comprehensive immigration reform rewarding law-breaking illegal aliens"

There. Fixed it.

[dirtboy]

Despite efforts by Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) and others, that dynamic hasn’t materialized.

It hasn't materialized largely because the RINOs have avoided townhalls.

[Da Coyote]

Perhaps the only good thing that will emerge from the rubble if reform is pulled off will be the final destruction of the Republican Party.

Long live its replacement.

[Timber Rattler]

Uh...there were no townhall meetings. Our congress critters went home and hid out for the month.

Why do we want more people (immigrants) in an ever-increasingly crowded nation? Don't the tree-huggers and enviro-whackos, all Dems, say we need fewer people in the world?

Oh yeah, the illegals tend to vote for Democrats......

[Piranha]

They probably are right. We can’t drop the ball on this issue. Its passage will lead to the destruction of the United States.

This amnesty bull**** is really starting to wear my *** out. Now we have so called “civil rights leaders” telling us that WE are violating the “civil rights” of the foreign national illegal aliens. It’s obvious that these so called “leaders” need to lighten up on the booze and the recreational drugs. If the FOREIGN NATIONAL illegal aliens are having problems with THEIR “civil rights”, non-alcoholic and non-drug addicted, NORMAL PEOPLE would recommend that they petition THEIR OWN government and demand their “civil rights” from their politicians. No one has a “civil right” to invade someone else’s country. Those illegal alien lowlifes have no right to come into MY country and demand “civil rights” with a free ride on the FREEway to the Big Pinata. Take that “civil rights” bull**** home and cry to YOUR OWN government about it. YOUR “civil rights” are NOT OUR problem. You do not have a “civil right” to my tax dollars.

I do not think so. Congress still has Economic Issues 2013 US Treasury to hit debt limit by October..That’s coming up quickly, moving debate over this Congress-imposed cap on the national debt onto the legislative calendar right alongside a parallel debate in Congress about approving a budget for the new fiscal year that starts Oct. 1.

Right now, Republicans and Democrats appear light-years apart. Many conservative lawmakers are pushing to link a hike in the debt limit with plans for new spending cuts.

How much time will be spent on immigration reform vs the debt limit by October ?
