A Republican congressman said Tuesday he’s rounded up enough GOP co-sponsors to force multiple immigration votes on the House floor.

Rep. Jeff Denham (R-Calif.) told The Hill that he has secured support from more than 40 House Republicans on a resolution that would allow debate and votes on four separate immigration proposals.

The four bills that would be considered are the conservative bill authored by Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.); a Democratic measure that would be the DREAM Act; a bill offered by Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) that would mirror President Trump’s immigration plan; and the bipartisan USA Act, a narrow bill limited to border security measures and protecting Dreamer immigrants.

“It’s time for us to have a full debate in front of the American public,” Denham told The Hill.

They want that final amnesty to cement in place the demographic changes they have made to the country through non-enforcement.

“....All 192 Democrats are expected to support the effort, which is known as a discharge petition, but Denham said his Democratic ally, Rep. Pete Aguilar (Calif.), is still rounding up co-sponsors on his side of the aisle.....”

E mail the White House NOW and say NO to these Bills. Anything the Dhimmicrats are in agreement on, you can rest assured it’s bad for Americans.

Hopefully the president learned something from the massive reaming he took on the budget bill.

Laws have very little meaning in California. Regardless if some conservative immigration law is passed, California law enforcers will be instructed to ignore it by their leftist bosses.

The top law enforcement officers in CA have shown they will subvert federal law. Why are they not in jail?
