Actually, Drier said on the floor of the house today, that the immigration reforms should be in the bill and it will come up first of the year. Then he sounded totally different for the cameras later.
Remember 68% of the house passed and presented their bill with those immigration protections in it. The Senate and White House pressure did it in. Balance of power? The House represents the people and then ....whooooosh!

To: AuntB; All
I keep thinking about this whole border/security/illegal scenario. Why has this President and others before him ignored this issue? It's not about votes IMHO. We keep hitting a brick wall on this immigration issue. No one wants to enforce the laws on the books. What's going on?????? Conspiracy???
