Boehner will need 30 Republicans.

Pelosi only has 187 votes for a discharge petition on her amnesty bill. She has a bunch of non-voters from PR and Guam so it says 196 cosponsors.

There is Rahall, McIntyre and Barrow who are solid and voted for Steve King’a amendment. Then you have congressmen like Lipinksi and Matheson who might not vote for it.

Clay Aiken should attack Renee Ellmers on immigration.

There are now 200 democrats, 232 republicans, and 3 vacancies in the US House.

In a straight line vote, the democrats + 17 republicans would carry the day.

That discounts those in red districts, but democrats are very good at getting their members to toe the line when they really want them to.
