Paul Ryan Leading House for 'Amnesty' Deal
NewsMax ^ | June 29, 2013

Paul Ryan, the Republican congressman and former vice-presidential candidate best known for his war on spending, is emerging as his party's leading champion of immigration reform in the U.S. House of Representatives.

With Senate passage of a sweeping immigration bill imminent, Ryan has been meeting with House conservatives to persuade them that reform of the immigration system, including a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants, is an economic necessity and critical to fixing the nation's fiscal problems.

Ryan, a potential 2016 presidential contender, sees himself as a "bridge builder" between immigration advocacy groups and reluctant Republicans, he said in an interview with Reuters.

He argues that the immigration system is broken and must be overhauled. "It doesn't work for national security. It doesn't work for economic security," Ryan said.

Bridges to the liberals will be burned by the liberals once the usefulness of the bridge builder is deemed to be used up.

The Open Borders Lobby has found its “Rubio” in the House. Prepare to hear his voice on talk radio commercials for months.

Ryan is doing this with gutless Boehner’s blessing.

Hope the conservatives can fight this back.

Just because you don’t like a Ferry Ride, doesn’t mean you have to build a bridge.

Sometimes, the water flowing between us is just fine.

So Boehner is taking a bye on this, there is no way they can sift through the mess that was handed them, compromise is not an option.

Heritage has accepted your challenge to debate this issue, Congressman. So lets do it.

Someone who is as confident this bill is what America needs right now as you apparently are should be able to easily win.

I am relishing the possibility.
