President Barack Obama said on Tuesday that stalled immigration reform would be a top priority once the fiscal crisis has been resolved.
"Once that's done, you know, the day after, I'm going to be pushing to say, call a vote on immigration reform," he told the Los Angeles affiliate of Spanish-language television network Univision.
The president's domestic agenda has been sidetracked in his second term by one problem after another. As he coped with the revelation of domestic surveillance programs, chemical weapons in Syria, and a fiscal battle that has shut down the U.S. government and threatens a debt default, immigration has been relegated to the back burner...

He won’t though, and apparently he received a standing ovation in the basement today. How can Republicans applaud this? NOT A SINGLE OUTLET is saying this is anything other than a humiliating defeat.
Choke on it, GOP.
Basement or bunker?
I am sure it will be the latter.
Feeling so hopeless. He is a nightmare that just won’t quit.
Obamacare and this now.. American, you are virtually fired. American woman, fill divorce papers and start working the sidewalks with Obama’s illegal goons.
Now that 0bamacare website's 'Voter registration' is ready, King Barry wants millions of illegals TRANSFORMED INTO DEMOCRAT VOTERS. WHAT TIMING HUH!!!
Unless we fight this in a BIG way, America's cooked goose is cooked!
And we won’t be able to do a damn thing to stop it, now.
We desperately need immigration reform.
Any Nation that has 20 plus million illegal undocumented people inside its borders is no longer a Sovereign Nation.
We used to have controls in place to regulate the number of people entering to make the process work smoothly and to insure that dangerous people did not get in. This open spigot immigration policy we have has hurt our economy,our education system, our medical system etc. Giving all those that violated law to sneak in to this country instant citizenship IS NOT the answer to our problems.
I am coming to the conclusion that buying American means supporting evil.
Obama = The Chocolate Fuhrer.
I have been following this issue closely with regards to Boehner.
Boehner is 100% determined to pass whatever immigration plan Obama wants.
Our Republic cannot recover from 14M new Socialist, 6th grade educated, third world illegal criminals.
This immigration bill will truly be checkmate.
Almost everything the Dictator has shoved through can be reversed (difficult, but possible). Amnesty isn’t reversible.
The Obamacare/shutdown crisis is hurting Obama and he needs to move on to the next crisis. Good thing he has Kapo republicants out there to help him do it.
Wondering if we can use the immigration issue to get in the faces of the RINOS who have tried to have Cruz skinned alive....? Push em and demand they claim their strategy.
This had little chance before, now forget it
Dont call me for support, GOP, unless you want an earful!
Youre dead to me.*
And when Boehner cuts out the Conservatives, the GOP will be scratching their heads after the election with 30% of the vote Republican, 23% Third Party and 47% Dems and saying,
“Wha Happen?”
“...after fiscal crisis ends...”?
Oh, okay - that is, roughly when h*ll freezes over or politicians become honest, which amounts to the same thing.
And I thought Clinton pandered. What a jackass.
Put your predictions out now when Boner will cave to this.
Time for making up your Boner Bingo pages.
