Just hours before President Obama hosts lawmakers for a discussion on immigration at the White House, Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel conceded... "If the votes were there, you wouldn't need to have the meeting. You could go to a roll call," ...About 20 senators and House members are due to arrive at the White House at 2 p.m. for the discussion in the State Dining Room. Aides to the president said the meeting was intended to "launch a policy conversation by having an honest discussion about the issues and identifying areas of agreement and areas where we still have work to do." ...Officials said the White House hopes to begin the more controversial debate over a comprehensive approach to address illegal immigration later this year.
